with Jim Cramer
CNBC
If you thought stocks
were boring, you
obviously haven't seen
Mad Money with Jim
Cramer on CNBC.
This show actually
makes stocks interesting.
Jim Cramer, famed
stock guru and show
host, helps you learn
about stocks and the
stock market, while
entertaining you and
sometimes shocking
you, as well.
A showman at heart,
Cramer does everything
imaginable from holding
up actual steaks from
Applebee's and Ruth's
Chris Steakhouse to
show you why
comparing the two
stocks would be like
comparing apples to
oranges.
I've seen him
dramatically smash a
toy Boeing model on
the air to illustrate the
point that the
companies that make
the things inside of the
airplanes, like seat
manufacturers,
electronics, etc. can be
the "hidden" money
makers when a stock
like Boeing gets a big
contract.
Things like keyboards
getting banged and
chairs getting thrown
across the room, pale
in comparison to the
viewers' favorite yell of
"Are you ready, ski
daddy?" that Cramer
bellows out at the top of
his lungs, at the
beginning of each of his
Lightning Rounds.
During the Lightning
Round, he takes
viewers' calls and they
ask him about
stocks-whether to buy,
sell or hold. The
knowledge that this
former Ivy League
School graduate and
lawyer has in his head is
amazing.
What I respect most is
his honesty with his
viewers. If he doesn't
know about a stock, he
says so. If he is on
vacation, he tells the
viewers that this will be
a rerun, things like that.
I also like the fact that
he stresses not to play
around with retirement
money, but to use
instead, : "Mad
Money," which is his
term for "extra" money
hanging around that you
don't need. I am still
looking for that. But
Mad Money is still a
show that you should
watch at least once.
Who knows? You
might accidently make
some money.
