Meets Marty Perez and begins to manage his money. Gives up law degree and ends up at Goldman Sachs as a broker/salesman. Act 2: Jim strikes out on his own. Builds and runs a hedge fund, first with his wife ("the trading goddess"), then Jeff Berkowitz. High return (claims 24% annual return) comes with high stress. Crash in '98 almost wipes out fund but came out alive and strong. Begins to become the Media man he is now known. Act 3: Co-founding TheStreet.com, firing the dumb/backstabing/imcompetent CEOs one after another until he regained control of the company. Sees through the "new" internet economy and the tech bubble. Running the fund and participating in TheStreet.com are intertwined chronologically. There is little direct market tip, but one could gain a bit of insight into how a hedge fund is run. No one denies his fund's performance, but only God will know if he's lucky. A lot of his "insights" sure sounded like hindsight. I still don't know if Jim favors fundamentals or technicals (seems to be the later). A few central themes he repeats and focuses on: 1) Jim has super-human work ethics, i.e. he works harder than anybody. 2) Jim is a temperamental SOB and erupts more often than an active volcano. 3) Jim makes good money. 4) Jim loves to write and loves TheStreet.com. 5) Jim either loves you or hates you. 6) Jim did do wrong a few times, oh but that's so rare and not entirely his fault. 7) Jim is screwed by quite a lot of people and he wishes them to hell. At least now I know the (real?) man behind his Boo-yah! Not something I would read again, but was entertaining in some parts. (  )1  davekong | Feb 8, 2008 | sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica
Pertence a SérieJim Cramer (1)
Bestselling author Jim Cramer takes readers on a wild Wall Street ride--revealing how to play the game, who breaks the rules, and who gets hurt. Everyone on Wall Street knows Jim Cramer, and Cramer knows Wall Street better than anyone. In the most candid and outrageous look at Wall Street since Liar's Poker, Cramer, co-founder of TheStreet.com, radio and television commentator, and for years a premier money manager, takes readers on the wild ride that is Wall Street -- revealing how the game is played, who breaks the rules, and who gets hurt. Confessions of a Street Addict takes us from Cramer's roots in the middle-class Philadelphia suburbs to Harvard, where he began managing money, and then to Goldman Sachs, where he went into business with his wife -- Karen, the "Trading Goddess" -- as his partner. He brilliantly describes the life of a money manager: the frenetic pace, the constant pressure to outperform the market and other fund managers, and the sharklike attacks fund managers make as they circle a fund perceived to be in trouble. Throughout the book Cramer is characteristically outspoken, offering his hard-won insights about the market and everyone in it, himself included. There has never been a more eloquent market insider than Cramer, nor a more high-octane book about Wall Street. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
