Short Takes: Option Collars and more

1. Potato gives a thoughtful explanation of why option collars for limiting risk do not give a good balance between risk and reward. As a bonus, Potato had two other interesting posts. One explained why options are a zero-sum game, but stocks are not. The other one is about student rental discrimination

2. Where Does All My Money Go? explains that your dog could end up costing you $38,000. Based on the vet bills for some of my friends, this estimate seems low.
