About The Author

James J. Cramer graduated magna cum laude from Harvard College, where he was president of the Harvard Crimson. He worked as a journalist at the Tallahassee Democrat and the Los Angeles Herald Examiner, covering everything from sports to homicide, before moving to New York to help start American Lawyer magazine. After a three-year stint, Cramer returned to Cambridge and earned his JD from Harvard Law in 1984. Instead of practicing law, however, he joined Goldman Sachs, where he worked in sales and trading. In 1987, he left Goldman to start his own hedge fund. While he worked at his fund, Cramer helped start Smart Money for Dow Jones, and in 1996, founded TheStreet.com (now TheStreet, Inc.). Cramer retired from his fund at the end of 2000 to embrace media full-time, including radio and television. He is host of CNBC's Mad Money with Jim Cramer and cohost of Squawk on the Street. He serves on TheStreet, Inc. board of directors, is a columnist and contributor for TheStreet's RealMoney and ActionAlerts PLUS, and participates in various video segments for TheStreet TV. Cramer is the author of Confessions of a Street Addict, You Got Screwed, Jim Cramer's Real Money, Jim Cramer's Mad Money, Jim Cramer's Stay Mad for Life, and Jim Cramer's Getting Back to Even.

Goodreads review by Hal on June 06, 2017

I don't care for Jim Cramer personally, but my brother-in-law follows him and was given this book for Christmas a couple years back. Curious, I started reading it while visiting and decided to give it a try when I got home. Cramer is ideal for anyone willing to spend the time poring over company fin......more

Goodreads review by Mike on March 21, 2015

Get Rich Carefully is an investment book that is based primarily on stocks. That being said, as somebody who watches and enjoys Mad Money I have to say that Get Rich Carefully parallels Cramer's investing philosophy displayed nightly on his show. Then why not watch the show? Because Cramer can't cove......more

Goodreads review by Mark on August 26, 2020

3.75 stars actually. I'm relatively well versed on the machinations of the market, so not much new was gleaned here. That being said, Cramer is entertaining, and I did learn more about market segments, best in breed, & playing the competition on certain stocks. I won't be getting rich quickly, but I......more

Goodreads review by D. on June 14, 2014

Excellent romp though the markets, what moves them and how to pick them. Cramer opens up about the many mistakes he's made over the years which is the most interesting reading to me. Great read.......more

Goodreads review by Peter on March 19, 2019

"Some people want to make friends... I'm just trying to make you some money." Viewers of Mad Money on CNBC or subscribers to Action Alerts will need no introduction to the energetic crazy man who serve as everyman's guide to the ins and outs of the US Stock Market. If it happens on Wall Street, Jim C......more

Quotes

*The New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestseller*

“Look to this book for guiding principles rather than specific stock tips … Forget about getting rich quick: The new investment climate, writes Mad Money host Cramer, is “treacherous…bizarre stock movements have become the staple, if not the hallmark, of this era.” Cramer, formerly known for his exuberant approach … has since taken a visibly more deliberate approach to the matter. This new book reflects his caution ... Cramer’s long list of dos and don’ts (Relative valuations don’t justify a purchase”; “Stop falling in love with your stocks”) is worth the price of the book.”—Kirkus

“In highly accessible language, Cramer explains how the stock market is influenced by economic data, Fed policy, world events, the actions of hedge funds, and the trend toward sector funds even when the underlying fundamentals of a stock remain stable. Drawing on his long experience, both mistakes and successes, Cramer demystifies the stock market and offers sound investing advice and an insightful overview of the market for cautious investors.” — Booklist

“Jim is a whirlwind, a true force of nature. He embodies not only the strongest work ethic extant (something Omega Advisors' Lee Cooperman taught me is at the epicenter of investment success) but in my decades in the investment business I know of no other person that possesses the breadth of knowledge about individual stocks. He is a reservoir of information…And that is why Jim Cramer's Get Rich Carefully … is a must-read…My advice? Run, don't walk, to read Jim Cramer's Get Rich Carefully. Booyah!”—Doug Kass, TheStreet.com
 
“Who wouldn't want to "Get Rich Carefully," as the title of Jim Cramer's new book promises? The stock market may seem scary, but Cramer says you can make money with research, logic and prudence….Whether Cramer's advice will make you a boatload of money or not, his rational explanations make stocks seem less intimidating.”—Jessica Gresko, Associated Press
 
“Careful isn't the word that usually comes to mind when investors think of Jim Cramer…[b]ut Cramer says his show has changed, and his newest book reflects this epiphany. Cramer is now professing a different, more traditional, approach to the stock picking.”—USA Today

“A must-read… My advice? Run, don't walk, to read Jim Cramer's Get Rich Carefully.”—Doug Kass, TheStreet.com
 
“Inspiring … even investors on the wrong side of Wall Street’s recent shakeups may find the courage to get back in the game.” —Publishers Weekly
 
“[Cramer] is the greatest public generator of excitement and knowledge about the market today.” —David Denby, The New Yorker
