I'll pick up puts on a few more of them on the next up day. In the meantime, I've got to figure out how long to hold onto the rest of my GLD puts. Pullback like that will hammer bad stocks too.

I don't get the SPY puts though. Why not buy a basket of puts on financially distressed companies instead? That's what I'm going to do. For starters, I picked up some VMED puts last week (some folks think that was a bad idea, as I mentioned <a href="http://thehackensack.blogspot.com/2009/12/bought-puts-on-virgin-media.html" rel="nofollow">here</a>).

There are always new challenges to seek out. You can always start a new journey. Boredom comes from a lack of imagination and initiative, not a surplus of money.
