YieldMax ETFs Under Fire | A Conversation With Mike Khouw

Video Description

In this in-depth conversation, I sit down with Mike Khouw to discuss YieldMax ETFs and the growing debate surrounding high-yield option-based strategies. We break down how YieldMax ETFs work, the role of options income, and the risks investors need to understand — including NAV erosion, volatility drag, and long-term sustainability. Mike shares practical insights on how these ETFs may (or may not) fit into a broader investment portfolio, especially for income-focused investors navigating volatile markets. 👉 Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and leave your questions in the comments! 🎉 Join 🏛The Income Blueprint Group for Exclusive Perks Get access to members-only content, Blog, Chat Rooms, Income Post, Special Events, and open office hours: 👉 https://income-architect.circle.so/untitled-page-2659 Walmart WFS with Limits Express Automation, Schedule a meeting 👉https://calendly.com/limitsexpressautomation/amazon-automation-30-min-call-clone-1 📈 Tools I Use • Stock Analysis - Affiliate link 👉 https://stockanalysis.com/pro/?ref=brad 👉10% off discount code : IncomeArchitect • Snowball Analytics - Affiliate link 👉 https://snowball-analytics.com/register/income_architect 👉promocode: income_architect • Seeking Alpha – Research and Insights - Affiliate link 👉 Premium: https://link.seekingalpha.com/3RJ5GCX/4G6SHH/ 👉 Alpha Picks: https://link.seekingalpha.com/3RJ5GCX/4HKP84/ 👉 Bundle Offer: https://link.seekingalpha.com/3RJ5GCX/4JZKZP/ • TradingView – Charts & Market Tools 👉 https://www.tradingview.com/?aff_id=143409&source=YouTube 📚 Books Worth Reading • The Bitcoin Standard – The Decentralized Alternative to Central Banking 👉 https://amzn.to/4l2TUvX • Walk Toward Wealth – The Two Investing Strategies Everyone Should Know 👉 https://amzn.to/40qTGGM • The Income Factory – High-Yield Investing Explained 👉 https://amzn.to/3ZCzp1p 👉 Library of books over the years that I have read. https://www.amazon.com/shop/incomearchitect/list/1UCXGNRA0U92X?ref_=aipsflist 🛒 Shop My Favorites on Amazon Explore products I personally use and recommend: 👉 https://www.amazon.com/shop/incomearchitect 📲 Follow Me on Social • X (Twitter) 👉 https://x.com/ArchitectIncome • YouTube Channel 👉 https://www.youtube.com/@Income_Architect?sub_confirmation=1 Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 00:17 Target 25% 00:54 Target 12% 02:10 NAV erosion 05:31 SOXY conversation 06:55 conversation about funds and important things to think about 09:20 MSTY vs WNTR 12:00 Single stocks view 13:17 New Funds? 17:05 watching indicators 24:05 Portfolio conversation 29:17 Tax professional and taxes conversation 35:00 Portfolio and how to grade it 40:00 AI and portfolio management 50:00 education and general last thoughts 👋 About Me I’m Brad, founder of Income Architect. My focus is on helping investors build sustainable income through ETFs, closed-end funds, and alternative yield strategies. I create content to help everyday investors make smarter decisions, avoid yield traps, and build the kind of retirement they actually want—without the hype or fluff. I’ve been an avid options trader for years and have tested nearly every income strategy under the sun. I hold an MBA—not because it makes me a guru, but because it proves I know how to research, learn, and adapt. That same mindset led me down the path of financial independence and early retirement. I’ve also done just about every form of crypto mining and firmly believe Bitcoin deserves a place in your long-term retirement portfolio. This channel is where I bring all of that experience—combined with real numbers and straight talk—to help you reach your goals.
