Jim Cramer, bestselling author and host of CNBC's Mad Money, has written the ultimate guide to lifetime investing for readers of any age. Whether you're a recent college grad trying to figure out how to start investing, a young parent struggling to decide where and how to put away money, or someone well into middle age and worried about whether you've saved enough for retirement, Jim Cramer's Stay Mad for Life has the answers. Cramer covers all the essentials: how to save, where to invest, which pitfalls to avoid. He offers valuable advice on everything from mortgages to college tuition. He explains what professional money managers do right that amateur investors do wrong. Because there is always a bull market somewhere, Cramer tells readers where to find the bull markets of the future, and for those willing to do the homework, he chooses twenty stocks that could be long-term moneymakers. For those who don't have the time or the temperament to invest in stocks, he identifies the mutual funds that are proven winners. He's investigated these funds by using his own twenty-five years' experience managing money for himself and dozens of America's wealthiest families. Throughout, in addition to his own enormously successful experience, Cramer draws on rigorous research to back up his advice. Jim Cramer is America's #1 financial guru. Every day he advises investors on how to get ahead of the markets and stay ahead on his daily television show, Mad Money; in his online columns and commentary at TheStreet.com; in his popular "Bottom Line" column in New York magazine, and on television programs from early morning to late night. His books have all been national bestsellers and have helped educate hundreds of thousands of investors about the perils and promises of the financial markets. USA Today called him "the media's most electrifying market pundit"; and his legions of fans agree. Jim Cramer's Stay Mad for Life is the definitive money book, a practical, concrete, insightful book of invaluable financial advice that is a joy to read.

 Investement Information
Not for serious investors. Information changes as he publishes more books. If you watch his TV program he at least apologizes (sort of) for poor investment recommendations. If you follow his rants and trust what he says, changing his mind after the fact does not repay your investment losses.
He just likes to hear himself talk and get richer and richer at your expense.
 Beware the clowns!!!
Simply put, Mr. Cramer is a self-admitted criminal who frequently flip flops on the advise he offers. I won't speculate on his motivation, but I know that in my case, the $ 375,000 that I had invested in Dendreon would be worth $450K at best, instead of $ 2,450,000, a 544% gain. So, follow Cramer's advice at your own risk! Best wishes to all honest investors!
 Got more than I bargained for.
I was very happy with the product I ordered. The only problem was I thought I ordered one but received two. Have no idea why. I was charged for two also. Next time I'll be sure I only order the number of items I want.
 Good book but here is the problem
In this book Cramer is starting to repeat himself. Still, in a sense, this an excellent book that presents how fund managers think in selecting companies to invest in. It is very easy to understand and written easy to follow format. However, in reality these methods are often vague and take time to implement. Many times you would not have the advantage to find such companies. And there are other methods to make money that are based on more technical methods. Check out the books of Toby Crabel and Linda Raschke - they are hedge fund managers. Although their books are out of print you will see how they make money though showing you the patterns they use. IF you are lucky you may still their books on Ebay or Amazon somewhere.
Ignore Complaining Readers who lost on their investment and blame Cramer!
I'm tired of all these reviews of folks complaining and attacking Cramer the person - these reviews are meant for the subject matter of the book! You are expected to research and follow all of your investments, including those recommended by Cramer. Stop whining and do some homework. You think any man can predit the market? He has made mistakes, yet taken as a whole his advice is speckled with good insights.
I read one review of some self-proclaimed beginner saying that Cramer suggested buying while the market was falling and that this is stupid. It is obvious that your a beginner - this is when you buy stock, when prices are depressed! You self-righteous whining babies better start analyzing your faults and mistakes if you want to advance. Keep blaming Cramer, see where that gets you.
As for the subject matter, all of his books contain overlapping content as well as unique material. This is a good beginner's book.
