Details

Synopsis Written for those who wish to invest not only their money but some precious time and intellect in order to see a healthy return, money journalist Jim Creamer advises a bold strategy for accumulating wealth. Cramer is all for aggressive investing, replacing the tired and timid "buy and hold" advice of paid professionals with his own "buy and homework" approach. He shows how to build a discretionary portfolio and how to digest the vast amount of available information about companies and their stock. His book is full of the names of actual companies, and also of his own record of investing both wisely and poorly. Cramer presents his 10 Commandments of Trading and his 25 Rules for Investing, which synthesize what he has learned through trial and painful error. His strategies can be modified for both the large and small investor. Known through his radio and cable television shows as a maverick, Cramer almost turns investing into an extreme sport, as he writes for an audience that wants to actively manage their lives.

Publisher's Notes
First Line: "If you look through my wallet, you will find all the things that everyone carries: license, credit cards, pictures of my wife and kids, and some cash. But if you look deeper, in some of the crannies, you'll find two things that no one else has: my first pay stub, a tattered, faded beauty from the Tallahassee Democrat newspaper from September 1977, and a snippet of a portfolio from the lowest day of my life, October 8, 1998."
