Jim Cramer

JamesRK

There is a radio commercial that says "Money talks, and it sounds like Jim Cramer!"

This is one major reason I don't want to have any money. I can not, will not, tolerate having anything or anyone around me that sounds like Jim Cramer.

I don't know what it is, but something about the quality of that boy's voice makes me want to hug his neck. Just put both hands around his windpipe and hug as hard as I can. His voice triggers the fight instinct in me.

I don't see how this boy makes his living by talking.

yeah he's annoying...but his advice on Apple Computers was spot on, I wish I had invested more...only stock I have that is doing well in this economy

He is both very knowledgeable and charismatic, i.e. NOT DULL. These 2 characteristics together make one a successful personality.

If you think he gives good advice, others disagree with you, including Barrons.

They ran that commercial again while I was reading http://www.businessinsider.com/2009/2/time-for-cnbc-to-drop-the-cramer-charade.

If I dealt in stocks, and if Cramer's picks outperformed the market, I still wouldn't be able to get past that chalk on the blackboard voice to hear what he is saying.

I loved the beat-down Jon Stewart gave him.

If Money talking sounds like Jim Cramer, then Money must sound like an annoying blowhard.

I tracked some of his recommendations on my watch lists and they definitely underperformed the market... Big time. His show is entertainment (if you can call it that) not individual stock recommendations. He doesn't post his historical results, and doesn't tell you when it's time to sell his picks.
