Personal finance expert, bestselling author, and host of CNBC’s Mad Money Jim Cramer offers advice on how to restore your financial health and how to work the Wall Street system—not work against it.
You’ve been screwed. You’ve been bludgeoned, skewered, crushed, mutilated by the stock market. Every day you read about another corporate scandal: loans to CEOs that didn’t have to be repaid, sham accounting irregularities, profits that never existed. You think the stock market must have been rigged. And you’re right.
You were betrayed by the stock promotion machine. The mutual fund managers, the brokers, analysts, strategists, and stock gurus who brainwashed you into buying and holding stocks aren’t coming to your rescue. So now what do you do? Where do you put your money? You can't just leave it in the bank or stuff it under the mattress.
For fourteen years Jim Cramer ran a hedge fund that compounded money at a rate of twenty-four percent annually after fees, and then he got out at the end of 2000. He knows that there are ways to make money, smart ways that don’t require you to own stocks blindly. There are other investments that won’t send you to the poorhouse.
This book will tell you what went wrong, who the bad guys were, and what you have to do to restore your financial health. You can’t just close your eyes. Ignoring Wall Street isn’t the answer. Cash alone isn’t the answer. But Jim Cramer has the answers.
