Q: As I grow older I find myself more risk adverse. You receive many questions regarding going to more cash when one fears a market correction and you claim, and I agree, that market timing is very difficult to pull off. None the less I am fearful of large loses similar to those encountered 10 years ago.
Now to my question. If one is investing for income, as I understand it, if the dividend is safe then a capital loss while not good can be tolerated with the hope of recovery because of the steady income flow. I am setting up a RRIF and am concerned about equity draw downs from a recession as well as increasing interest rates. In conclusion an income investor should be able to sleep at night knowing there is a steady income stream. I am trying to generate a 5% annual dividend stream. Thank you.

Q: Hi,
If I were to buy & sell options as a strategy to create a monthly income flow, would any proceeds (profits or losses) be considered as Capital Gains or Income for income tax purposes?
Also, if trading options, is there any consideration to be aware of in regards to option-able stocks that pay dividends?

Q: On June 17th there was an article in the Globe entitled " Are these preferreds a 5 percent solution", by Rob Carrick. It spoke of many different perpetual preferreds paying close to 5%. What is your opinion as to how any perpetual preferreds would fit into any investment portfolio in today's investment climate. Would you ever recommend them?
Thank you
