I promised you the full portfolio. Here it is.

Every ticker. Every share count. Every distribution from April 2026. No hiding, no cherry-picking, no leaving out the positions I’m less proud of. This is the complete picture of how I generate $4,000+ in monthly income from covered call ETFs.

I’ve been building this portfolio for under a year. When I started, I had no idea it would generate this kind of income this quickly. Now I document everything — every month, every week, every dollar — so you can see exactly how it works and decide what makes sense for your own situation.

One quick correction before we dive in. In Issues #1 and #2, I referenced $4,167.34 as my April distributions. After double-checking my brokerage records, the correct figure is $4,137.34 — a $30 difference due to a data entry error on my end. I apologize for the inaccuracy. Real numbers always mean correcting mistakes when I find them, not hiding them. The complete verified breakdown is below.
