I've traded options only a handful of times , and lost every time lol.   
  
  
 I've always had a question about options; why would anyone buy options to exercise them when they can just buy the stock? (I know most people buy options to sell them prior to expiry, but for those that actually want to buy and exercise, whats the point? What do they gain? Why not just buy the stock?!)

### REPLY:
Cause even most of wsb's isn't retarded enough to always short stock when puts would otherwise do.
