Then what are you buying?  I admit am a noob with enough cash. Just dont want to lose it quickly.

### REPLY:
Pro-tip: don't buy options since you clearly have no idea how they work. You will probably lose everything... even when you DO know how they work, they can be dangerous due to immense leverage and poor risk management that seems to be common among people.  
  
 Options let you have leverage by enabling you to have a contractual right or obligation to buy/sell 100 shares of the underlying asset per option contract.
