GPIQ
Goldman Sachs ETF Trust Goldman Sachs Nasdaq-100 Premium Income ETF
stock NASDAQ ETF

All cash sits in GPIX and GPIQ until it's needed or the current price of those gets too close to the cost basis of my most recent lots.

You can generate whatever montly ammount you want given time and money. I am currently getting enough dividends to cover all of my living expenses of 5K a month The only issue you need to pay attention to is taxes. In US tax law there are 3 types of dividneds all taxed differently.
1. regular dividned are taxed like work income 100% of the income is taxable income.
2. Qualified dividends are taxed at the long term capital gains tax rate . Most case only 20% of the income is taxable income
3. ROC dividends are generated by a fund that does tax loss harvesting. The ROC dividned transfer this tax loss to you. When you recieve this dividend it reduces the cost basis of the shares she shares you own. If theist basis is above zero you owe no taxes on theROC income. However over time the cost basis drops to zero. At that point the ROC dividiedds are taxed at the long term capital gains rate. The approximate time it takes to reach zero cost basis is 1000 dividend by the dividned. So a fund with a dividends of 10% and 100% ROC dividned will be tax free for about 10 years.
GPIQ QQQI and JEPQ all generate income by selling covered calls on the NASDAQ 100 index. The only real difference between these funds are
QQQI 14% yield 95% of the income is ROC income.
GPIQ 10% yeidl 80% of the income if ROC income.
JEPQ 10% yield, 100% of the income regular dividneds.
The reason why JEPQ is taxed very differently is because it incorporates ELN (Equity Linked Notes) a type of bond in it covered call stratagy QQQI aims for maximum tax efficiency and yeidl. GPIQ aims for more growth in share price at the expense of yield and tax efficientcy.
For my taxable brokerage account I focus on d# 1 and 2 to keep my taxes low. And this account currently covers all of my living expenses. But since the dividend can drop in a crash this account generates more income than I need and funds that don't generate ROC dividend and a history of dividned stability. I have more dividends in my roth account but with a mix of #1,2,3 dividned andthere are no taxes in the ROTH. I am assuming I will need assisted living lat in my life So the Roth if for income later in life ( I am a few years away from age 60 when I can easily withdrawal money from it.

If you are accounting for inflation that's good, most people don't, but still getting technically risk free yield of 5.3%. personally I wouldn't purchase until 6.5% or higher. I take more risk so something like GPIQ with roughly 10% yield is more my buys for my retirement lifestyle.

Id cut your loss...20%+; Yield is highly unstable along with obviously failing company thats sinking to zero. Then been cutting there dividend -20% year over year as well...its a classic yield trap.... if need income in a taxable consider GPIQ/GPIX instead

Well QYLD isone of the older funds and its share price has been sliding down since inception 13 years ago. Its all time high was 13 years ago. This fund uses a very simple covered call strategy that guaranties a small ammount of NAV erosion every year. QQQI and GPIQre similar funds that don't have NAV erosion. Even through all 3 sell covered calls on the NASDAQ 100 index QQQI and GPIQ have similar price charts which mimic the index. QYLD doesn't mimic the index. When you see this behavior in a covered call fund don't debate it, just sell it NAV erosion is a permanent loss of share price that you will never recovered from. it represents a permanent loss of your money. Just sell QYLD and invest in either QQQI or GPIQ.
