While value investing builds your foundation and lays the groundwork…
What most people don't know is Buffett doesn’t just invest in great companies.
He also uses options to boost returns and manage risk.
It’s one of the biggest reasons he’s outperformed for decades.
When used the right way, Options don’t replace value investing — they enhance it, supercharging your portfolio performance.
We call this the Buffett Accelerator Framework:
1) One that drives long-term growth through quality stock selection.
2) The other generates consistent cash flow through strategic options plays — even in sideways or choppy markets.
For example... you’d like to own a stock but only at a cheaper price.
Instead of just waiting, you can use the B.O.S.S. options strategy.
You agree to buy a quality stock at a price you’re comfortable with, but you get paid upfront for making that promise.
If the stock price falls to or below your target, you buy it at your ideal price, effectively getting in cheaper, plus you keep the premium you were paid.
If the stock price doesn’t drop, you keep the premium as income, with no obligation to buy.
It’s a win either way.
Or...
Let’s say you want to buy 100 shares at $50? That's $5,000 Investment.
With Strategy Y, you can control the same 100 shares for just $1,250.
If the stock goes up, your profit is similar.
If it crashes, your maximum loss is only $1,250, not $5,000.
More upside, 75% less capital at risk.
These are calculated options strategies that fit right to brilliantly enhance the value investor’s playbook.
Think of it like this: value investing builds your engine, but options install a turbocharger, transforming a solid ride into a high-performance machine.
