After Part 8, you should have an understanding of how the Fokas Stock Investment Strategy works. For this final instalment of this series of blogs, let’s look at how the Fokas system is going to change your life.
Have You Had Consistent Success investing in the Stock Market? If Not, Why Not?
Here’s an answer that makes a lot of sense: the deck is stacked against the retail investor and trader. Do you have the skill to pick the stocks that will gain in value in a few years, a few months, a few days? Few do. The good news is that about 10,000 different magazines, websites and television pundits all know just which stocks you should buy today. The bad news is that none of them pick the same stocks. Good luck picking the right one to follow. Do you have that rare skill, a system and the right education to time stocks like the successful day traders and swing traders, and can you sit in front of a computer monitoring all day waiting to catch the moves?
If you haven’t had consistent success with your investing, there might be several very good reasons why not.
Or maybe, just maybe, you’ve never deployed a strategy that can work over time in different markets, because you just didn’t know there was one…
There is no shortcut to success.
Let me raise my hand here and say that I have done ALL of the above, so I’m not talking theory here! But even if you are doing something that is working, consider the possibility of devoting unused corners of your account to an income-producing strategy.
It’s all about cash flow, not investment savvy or stock-picking.
What do guys like Warren Buffett and Donald Trump have in common? The answer: cash flow. Business is measured by its cash flow and the quality of its earnings. Investors and the market all breathlessly await the earnings report, not the asset report or book value report. Cash flow: business lives and dies by it. Thus, how odd is it that Australian and American investors are constantly exhorted to simply buy and hold unproductive investments – something that no captain of industry or businessman ever has done or ever will do?
It really is simple. Your money should be working for you – conservatively, regularly generating income.
So now you have the alternative: income investing using the Covered Call strategy.
Does the idea of using an income investing strategy to generate 2% to 4% a month on your funds appeal to you? That’s potentially 24% to 48% annually, without any compounding of returns. Do you like the idea of confining your investing to only high-quality, conservative stocks, the kind that competent financial advisers would recommend if they didn’t live primarily on commissions on the products they actually recommend? How about using a simple strategy with the right system an education to limit your risk in each trade to only a few percent of the amount invested?
Note: According to the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE), the world’s largest, writing covered calls is more conservative than owning stock alone.

Take Control Of Your Money… And Your Future
If you had the choice to protect your capital on the stock market, would you?
If you knew you could protect your hard earn money before you even enter the market, would you now consider investing in the stock market knowing you can protect it?
Guess what? You can protect your capital on the stock market. Can you protect 100% of your capital? The answer is NO! Unfortunately, you cannot cover 100% of your capital. If anyone tells you they can, they are dreaming, or lying. Nothing on this planet is 100% guaranteed risk free. There are, of course, ways you can increase the odds in your favour and minimise the potential risk. There are ways to protect your capital at low cost. The protection we have in place, for example, is purchased from the stock market. There will always be risk on the stock market, however, if we can protect most of the capital, know what the risk is and what the return will be, up front before we enter the market, there is no other strategy right now that can better the one we employ for our members.
You can protect between 90% – 99% of your capital when you enter a covered call position for the month. Therefore no more than 10% would be at risk when you enter the covered call position for the month.
We use a small percentage of the profit we earn to purchase this protection, while still earning a return on our investment. This way, to protect our hard-earned cash, we use none of our own money but the income that comes in from the investment we are protecting. We want to reduce our risk as much as possible but also keep the cost of that protection down to a minimum.
Guess who writes the most covered calls of all?
The answer: In the US the large institutional money managers; pensions, mutual funds, hedge funds, and any institution that holds a portfolio of stocks. In Australia, Macquarie bank is one of the largest doing this. It only makes sense… why would they just sit there hoping the stocks will go up when they could make the portfolio in effect pay a monthly dividend by selling call options against the shares?
The institutions sell more covered calls than anybody. If they’re doing it, why aren’t you?
Think about it: which side should you be on… the speculative side or the income side? The buy and hold crowd would exhort you to buy stocks and hold them indefinitely and unproductively, whereas implementing the covered call strategy the correct way generates conservatively 1.5% to 4% a month in income – and you still own the stocks, if you want and you can have protection on your Capital. Which sounds better to you?
Let me ask you a question, who makes the most money? The Casino, the house, or the punter hoping to strike it rich?
Hopefully, you answer the House always wins. We are the house on the stock market. Welcome to my world!
At Last, The Decision!
If you are like me, you would like to know what your risk is before you put any money in the market. That is prudent and given what we have learned about the bubbles and the crashes, the gamblers and the speculators, a sensible thing to do. Let me tell you a bit more in detail about Fokas Beyond and what we do to help ordinary, everyday people like you and me make an income through investing in the stock market.
Let’s say I outlay X-amount of dollars. I know what my profit is and I know what my risk is before I put any money in the market. Would you invest your hard earned money if you knew what your risk is and what your return is before it went into the market? How would you like to be in that position?
Are we in a better position to assess the exposure? Absolutely. Investing the smart way that we teach is like having a business of your own with all the features and benefits of a true dream business. My clients are members of a select group of investors who have their own say in what they are earning and generating.
They have all the coaching available to them yet they have true independence to invest in what they choose to invest their money in. They have full control and complete choice.
The Universe rewards completions, not intentions.
There is no future without an investment
Now, can you do this? If anyone can, you can! One thing I say to all my members around the world since 2005 is that I believe in you, do you believe in you? Just think of the possibilities for you and of course, your loved ones. We basically educate you to be able to do this on your own, relying on nobody but yourself once you have learnt it. Truly you are your own boss.
Everything is done online. What we do is we give you the education you need to discover how to build your solid foundation so you are able to do this on your own. Unlike many stock market educators providing speculative strategies, we have no monthly subscriptions and no software, just knowledge and proven methodology.
Basically what we do is hold your hand and guide you for 12 months. We take you to the point where you’re able to do this on your own without having to rely on anybody else. How would you like to be in that position and not have to rely on anybody else but yourself? We provide you with stock choices, stocks that I find where you analyse as per the criteria you are taught so you don’t have to scan the markets daily and spend hours doing it. We do this for the first 12 months while educating you on how to scan the markets and get into the markets to do this on your own.
You receive all the education online. Knowledge is power. Do you have approximately 6 hours right now to discover this strategy? In fact, you know some of it anyway, purely by reading this. In just five to six hours, you will discover the strategies to be able to get into the market and do this on your own, with our guidance. Plus you will also receive additional services from us:
- My Stock Reports and Market Reviews
- One on one coaching for 12 months
- The latest educational content to apply in the current market
- My Stock Choices that I am personally investing in for you to analyse and review
Studies have shown the single most important factor that helped most successful people was; they had a coach/mentor. Someone who took them under their wing and showed them the ropes. Imagine having someone watch over you every step of the way to help fast track your success…Imagine no more.
Model What We Do And Do It Well!
Someone once said to me that success in everything is 95% simply turning up! Most people fail to take any action, to do anything to change how they are and become the way they want to be. How serious are you about improving your financial situation? Most of us have all the will in the world but we just need a push now and then and a shove from time to time until we break the old habits and develop new, better ones. We don’t offer support, we offer coaching. Someone dedicated to helping you create new, life-changing habits.
If you’re willing to take action and you’re willing to discover this strategy, to earn income, we are willing to put our time into this to guide you.
I concluded that, unfortunately, only a few want to hear how to become independent and free. To do this, you need to stop identifying with the false beliefs you have internally, do what you want to do (instead of ‘working for a living’), and live in joy, which is what we are designed to do.
I felt going through this journey as if I were my own minority group. Most people want security over freedom.
As most people identify with their beliefs, giving them up would present the fear, ‘who would I BE?’ If they were to open their minds, drop their preconceived notions and their psychological prejudices, let go of the concept that their beliefs are who they are, they might become enlightened. Millions of unconscious people are not taking responsibility for their inner peace.
Success isn’t something that just happens – success is learned, success is practised and then it is shared. Welcome to Fokas Beyond.
By now you want to be taking assertive command of your financial future, where money is no longer a limitation but a potent tool you have with power and impact. So what’s stopping you? If you want to know more, please contact us and allow us to show you the way where we want you to;
Learn. Grow. Prosper. Together!
