### Comment:
How is that? If you’re selling puts aren’t you obligated to buy if the buyer exercises the option? Versus if you buy puts and they never end up in the money you’re just out the price of the sale? I guess you end up with stock at least, in the first example, but you’re screwed if you don’t have the money to cover it, right?

### REPLY:
No, it’s just sold back to the market if you can’t cover 
  
 I agree with the other guy, buying is overall much riskier. It’s just disguised as “safe” bc there is a max loss attached

### END.
