Abstract
This paper describes and interprets pathologies associated with long-dated options. Contrary to naive financial intuition, binary calls with almost certain large payoffs may have a value close to zero; conversely, puts appear to be expensive versus zero-coupon bonds. These results are interpreted in a joint CAPM/Black-Scholes framework.
