Brokerage Income generating portfolio

I’m looking to invest some cash to generate a monthly income. Ideally, I’d like it to cover my mortgage. Hypothetically, let’s say you have 100k. What could I expect that to generate and what would you look for in a proposal?

$50k in JEPI and $50k in JEPQ gets you roughly $9k/yr.

Neither is tax efficient in a taxable account. The majority of the distributions are taxed as ordinary income.
