Synopsis
Personal investment advisor Jim Cramer brings the same zest and expertise to readers that he delivers to his huge television audience who watch him on CNBC.

Cramer shows what to look for and what to look out for, and along the way he fills readers in on how his show works, onscreen and off.

Publisher's Note
"Investing well isn't easy, but it is possible. My goal in life is to make it easier for you to make money."

Jim Cramer is the champion of the middle-class investor. Every night on Mad Money, he provides valuable information about stocks, steering investors away from danger zones and leading them to the investments that can turn a lackluster portfolio into a powerhouse of profit. In his new book, he shows investors how to take the advice on his TV program and put it into action.

Cramer walks investors through the key decisions they have to make: understanding their tolerance for risk and defining their goals, doing the essential homework on a stock, and knowing how to buy and sell stocks the right way -- the Cramer way. This is a true nuts-and-bolts guide to investing, from Cramer's detailed discussion of the sort of homework investors must do to his own guidelines for knowing when and how to sell stocks.

Mad Money is a hugely entertaining television program, but it also offers valuable information that can be the basis for a winning portfolio. Cramer shows how to turn the "Lightning Round" into a terrific tool for investing; it's stock-market strength training. He reveals how he can assess a stock in only seconds -- a valuable skill that every investor can acquire and put to good use. He explains what to look for in his CEO and CFO interviews, and how to use those conversations to make successful investment decisions. He reviews some of his best calls made on Mad Money, as well as some of his worst ones, to extract ten lessons from each that can profit every investor. And for the Mad Money junkies who just can't get enough, Cramer goes behind the scenes to explain everything from the reason behind his deliberate mispronunciations to his notorious chair abuse to the zany props and buttons that keep things humming.

From the first "Booyah" to the last roar of the bull, Mad Money is every investor's favorite television program, and Jim Cramer's Mad Money is the book that can turn a TV program into a top-notch stock portfolio.

EXCELLENT First Book on Buying & Selling Stocks

Created: 21/01/10
I'm in the process of reading this book (taking notes as I go) and all I can say is that I wish I'd had this book years ago when I first thought of participating in "the Stock Market". Not only is it concise and well-written, but Jim Cramer's over-the-top TV personna doesn't come through in this book. The author (probably thanks to his co-writer) sounds like a real person who is sound of mind. So, kudos to Cliff Mason!
I would recommend this book and I would recommend the cautious and circumspect approach Jim Cramer advocates. To borrow from Mr. Cramer's philosophy of buying stocks - read slowly and think carefully about what you're about to do.
Best regards.

I have watched Wall Street Week and other business programs for over 25 years and all of these programs taken together don't come close to the practical stock market knowledge that I have gained with Jim Cramer. His book "Mad Money" and his TV program has given me focused insight on how to extract the most important information in evaluating stocks. The service Jim is providing the public is priceless.

If you love Jim Cramer's nightly investment advice show, you will love this book! Jim as always gives great advice on investment strategies, including past examples of what has worked and what has not. Most importantly, this book tells you how to put his show's wonderful advice to use. I am not a financial person by any means, but both Mad Money the TV show and this book have me investing!

I had been watching Jim Cramer's TV show Mad Money and decided I needed to know more about trading stocks. Since I have little cash to spend on books, I decided it would be less expensive to buy the book through eBay. I was right because I got a great deal on the book and the service was splendid. I will continue to buy Jim Cramer's book through eBay. eBay gives great deals on things I need and want to buy.
