Jim Cramer’s Just Plain MAD
May 19th
I read an interesting opinion on Jim “Mad Money” Cramer. For those of you who don’t know him, he is:
- The host of CNBC’s “Mad Money” show
- The co-founder of TheStreet.com
- A bestselling author of “Real Money” and “Stay Mad for Life”
Now back to the blog post. For those of you who are fans of Cramer, this post is from Marc Andreessen.
Marc is one of the most successful entrepreneurs (called a Silicon Valley “whiz kid” ), startup coach, blogger, investor, and a multi-millionaire software engineer best known as co-author of Mosaic, the first widely-used web browser, and co-founder of Netscape Communications Corporation. He was the chair of Opsware, a software company he founded originally as Loudcloud, when it was acquired by Hewlett-Packard. He is also a cofounder of Ning, a company which provides a platform for social-networking websites.

CNBC’s “The Millionaire Inside”
Feb 17th
I seldom watch television these days. When I do, I almost always switch to CNBC. One of the programs I noticed is one you may not have heard about yet. The “Millionaire Inside” is hosted by Erin Burnett.
Millionaire Inside is “…an exciting series, featuring an unprecedented roster of top money mentors. With each show, [their] money mentors address a different topic in building and maintaining wealth.”
When I first watched this show, they featured Donald Trump and branded the show as “The Billionaire Inside”. Erin essentially interviewed Donald in front of a studio audience asking him questions about his businesses, how he became a success, etc. Since then, the format has changed.
If you visit the Millionaire Inside website, you’ll see a series of topics with celebrity financial gurus such as Robert (Rich Dad) Kiyosaki, David Bach, Loral Langemeier, and many other notable celebrities in the personal financial arena.
This show does not appear to be a regular series. Instead, it is appears to be a series of special reports. I suspect CNBC is currently evaluating the popularity and demand for this show. In the meantime, if you don’t subscribe to CNBC, you have two options. First, you can order a DVD from CNBC; it contains the first four episodes. Second, I recommend simply browsing their website. The expert money mentors have posted their advice online.
Enjoy!
