Starting as a summer intern in 1978, Kirk worked for 20 years as a scientist and engineer at Hewlett Packard's research and development department (R&D) designing solid state devices and components for optical communication. While he was at HP, Kirk invested ten to twenty percent per year of his salary. He made some mistakes early on (starting with paying high fees for "expert" advice that under performed) but soon he learned to invest his own money well enough to afford a life of "semi-retirement" to work for himself. In a way, since leaving HP in 1998, Kirk became his own "angel investor" using his his own money and investing success to finance his lifestyle in Los Altos, California to invest in a new career on the internet helping others do the same.

Today on CNBC's "Street Signs" at about 11:30AM PST Amanda Drury interviewed Jim Cramer for their regular "stop trading" segment.
I wrote about it in detail at Jim Cramer Recommends Gold and Gold Corp.
I wonder how many people will add Gold or Goldcorp to their portfolios now near all time record highs based on Jim's advice.
- Can anyone verify that Cramer has been a gold bug since his Mad Money show began?
- Has Cramer had Gold in his action alerts portfolio for 10 to 20% from the start?
- Was it a small position that grew with the large gain in gold?
Or - did he add Gold recently?
