I'm pretty sure Cramer could always get a job as a stunt double for Lucky Louie http://www.hbo.com/luckylouie/cast/character/louie.html
LOL... Melissa Francis. She looks like shes in pretty good shape - those eyes freak me out sometimes though. WRT Maria - a flabby ass is a major turn off for me.. Okay face though.
Cramer has the #1 rated show on MSNBC. I believe they air it about 3x daily. Do you really think they are going to Kill the Golden Goose? Cramer is said to have a net worth of 100 Million. He most likely earns 5-10 Million from his own investments on a yearly basis. He does this show to stroke his HUGE EGO. I'm sure he would make 10x the money managing a hedge fund. I watch his show once in a while strictly for entertainment and to hear all his lemmings praise him.
lots o' stuff... cnbc won't cancel his show, it's their highest rated show in a long time. part of the reason for the new stock picks comes from ppl above his head, to always come up with 'new' stuff to draw in people. there was an article about his show and the success, and the cnbc (producer?) telling him that an idea wasn't 'sexy' enough. frank grimes - spot on. cramer admits as much in his book (that his wife was the good trader), and about paying for info. that's why he was so ticked about the regulation a few years back; he couldn't pay for "1st on the street". how could cramer get 24% in 15 years? this way: lots o' IPOs. paying for info first on the street. supposedy leaking info. to television stations and selling into it. being very good at hiring hungry, talented people - most of whom left him, and not on the best terms. try to find people on the street to talk glowingly of him *cough*. his talents are: excellent writer, great self-promoter. i haven't read his 3rd book (the one he touts on the tv show), but i've heard the information in it is generally right. nothing you couldn't get out of william o'neil's stuff, however. his first book, _confessions_, is really good (though some might disagree). in there, he admits to (umm...how to say this nicely...) not being a great father/husband. though i'll knock him for other things, i hope he's worked / working on this part of his life, and i mean that with all sincerity. i can't vouch for it, but i've heard his buzz/batch stuff was mainly autobiographical... he has more than enough money for all his needs. everything else is for ego...
ok why is he having a flashback show like they used to do on sit coms..is his producer a former sit com guy..do do do...do do do..do do..lets flashback to october 2005 when market was around 10% lower than today..and show JC picking stocks..why on a day where the dow is down over 100 points for first time n a week and the fed is meeting soon...seems like a dubious time to have a flashback show..
