say what you will. Anyone who follows Cramer blindly is a fool. Many of his promoted stocks are just that- hype. Some you can evaluate and make a few $. If you are skimming for pennies and take a lot of risk with it- your choice. I agree with most of you that the man cannot be taken for what he says but you got to give him the benefit of being a good entertainer (most of the time), I certainly had pleanty of ha ha from his Mad Money show. He truely is mad, but funny non theless.
cmk confessed, "I made the mistake of PAYING for his action alerts. Lets see, down about 30% on Symbol, 25% on Lucent, 25% on Tyco...................... Why was I paying for this guy to screw me out of money?" So anything negative he says is nothing but sour grapes from a man who was not able to benefit for the winners, but found a way to blow out on the losers. Sort of like blaming the wall when you bang your head on it. Come to think of it, that exercise might be useful to ya.
I certainly think Cramer has been successful with CB and his experiences in those days, but his tv show, latest book, and action alerts plus are all junk, in my opinion. I think many people have a notion that this guy is a younger and more "energized" Warren Buffet, a master investor who really knows what he is doing. My experience with reading his books and painfully watching his show and subscribing to and reading his action alerts has turned me off to Mr. Cramer. I don't know if he has lost his edge or just does not care anymore, but I am not impressed with his performance with his action alerts and what he has chosen to do with his life (read:yell and scream on TV and look like a jackass) My original post was in reference to you shooting your mouth off all the time about how you are smart and everyone is else dumb and blah blah. I am not bitter for spending money on action alerts or following any of Cramers advice, sure i wished the results were different, but I sure hate to see a forum like this with many worthwhile posters who have a ton of knowledge that many of us willing to learn can benefit from be plagued with comments from people like you. I have certainly seen a pattern in your posts where you would rather be argumentative rather than be a part of the group who has knowledge willing to share with others. But Elite Trader has this great little feature where I can ignore you, so I guess that is even better
cmk belched, "....part of the group who has knowledge willing to share with others" llollollololollolollolololollolollolololo You are funny, I'll give you that.
