Cramer won't make you rich. Oh yes, you can make a living trading his stocks. But you can also lose money if you lose patience. The fact is he (or any other of his Wall Street buddies) might have significant positions in the stock recommended as buy. The only person who can get rich is Cramer himself (and his Wall Street buddies). The TV rating is high and a score number of fans who can make thousands a day from his picks loves him as a clown on CNBC. Yes, you can make a living following him. But who knows how long would it last ? The market might turn around very suddenly. All he can say is, "The House of Pain". And here comes the blame game. What can he do ? He can sell ahead of everyone without notice. The bottomline is: He simply cannot get you rich. I know his picks are the best of breed among industries. But those companies have already been pumped up. You cannot buy a significant position in those companies. They are relatively safe bets with little (or medium) return in my opinion. Sometimes, it might take longer than usual to get a few thousand bucks. That's it! Then how can you get rich from investing ? The answer is: high risk and high return investing in oil and gas industry. Why oil & gas ? Because we are still facing energy crisis. CNBC is not talking about it. Cramer says the money has been made in oil & gas. But come on! We are still facing potential shortage in oil, while China and India are sucking it like leeches. Plus the fact that the US itself doesn't have strategic reserve in natural gas, and the first liquid-to-gas terminal is still a decade away. We've seen the devastation of the hurricane Katrina. Any terminal and energy platform can be wiped out overnight with a category 5. We are pretty sure that the strength of a hurricane may get stronger when global warming continues. As for oil imports, we rely mainly on Saudi. If this country has trouble in case of a terrorist event, oil price would definitely skyrocket. Moreover, the Iran situation is worrisome, but we are not as worried as the Israelis. Chances are there could be a major military confrontation in the Middle East because of Iran. $5 gas is not out of the equation in the future. Back to the main topic, how can we get rich in investing ? The only way is to buy an oil & gas company with a dominant position (1 million acre of leasehold) in an area which will be proved to have significant energy reserves underground. The company I am saying is Heartland Oil & Gas (HOGC). This stock is trading under $1, so everyone can get a "significant" position in it, at least 50,000 shares. And it has to be held for at least 5 years to maximize the potential high rewards. Sure the risk is high. But when the company discovers major gas field (which is very likely), it will be significant assets in the company's balance sheet. The gathering system is being built and the production of gas is said to be in December. There are currently 3 major institutions with increasing positions in the stock. I am not asking everyone to buy here because of what I've just said. But the potential rewards is here in oil & gas industry. So let's do some more due diligence, before you invest ... heartlandoilandgas.com
