      In Defense of Jim Cramer on Bear Stearns
      Hindsight is 20/20. As a beginning stock investor, I would have concluded Mr Cramer was talking about the stock, but I would also have done my homework and realized that something was not adding up. The CEO gave his offical word that his company was in good shape. I wouldn't invest in any company that droppped from more than half a year ago anyway. How much warning do you need?

      Tracking Jim Cramer's Performance: January 2007 Stock Picks
      Wrong metric to judge Jim Cramer. He always states that any decision is stock buying is dynamic. Meaning, if the reasons you are buying changes, you have to re-value the reason to stay. I've started as an investor for nine months now and have yet to keep a stock over three months.

      Rick Santelli Takes Down Jim Cramer
      If you listen with both ears, Cramer does advise anyone who doesn't have the time to spend one hour a week per stock (no more than five and diversified) to be in a mutual fund; Use Mad Money and not retirement money; Decide when to buy and sell as part of the homework; Keep your ear and eyes open to any news that may change the stocks position. I think that about covers most of the complaints I've read so far.

      Mr Cramer is an excellent teacher. I've taped his shows to get the super-speed information that Mr Cramer gives without a commission.
      He also admits when he's wrong, can you?
      I've lost money at first because I didn't do my homework. After reading his books at least twice, you need to do this because after you make mistakes, he reminds you why when you read it the second time.
      I'm now ahead of the curve and I'm loving it during the last week of pullbacks. Mr Cramer teaches me how to invest. I must decide which stock, why this stock and when to sell.
      His show "introduces me" to possible stocks he likes. Thank you Mr Cramer.
