Does anyone else use options to generate income for retirement? I’ve been thinking about transitioning to a more income-focused strategy as I get closer to retirement, but I’m not sure where to start. Covered calls and cash-secured puts seem obvious, but are there any other strategies you’d recommend?

Came here to post a similar question about options for retirement. Options are usually more risky than buy and sell equities so I'm interested in hearing what others do during retirement without being worries about "losing it all"

New to US. Which brokers offer best margin accounts? For e.g. I have equities worth $100K and want to trade options. Is there a broker where I can do so without paying more in collateral money - essentially using stocks as collateral, and also not paying margin interest. Was able to do so in London, Hong Kong, and India. However, Robinhood here doesn’t seem to allow it.
