Great thing that mute button. Now all we need is an automatic mute commercial button. Lazarre

Take out the personality and what does each contribute. Rodgers is so broad on advice and a bear by nature while Cramer is specific on stocks. However, you may not want to take Cramer's advice as he is trading daily. Jim doesn't talk to the general audience when he discusses the money systems, commodities etc in various countries. Perhaps he is right for a small portion of cnbc watches. Kudlow is great to watch but not on very much. I feel I learn something from him when he is on. Again it may be just the way he comes across. see ya John

I have mixed feelings about Cramer as an investor, but I am an unequivocal fan of his TV appearances. I like them because he talks freely and passionately about his latest moves and thoughts. Most money managers are very reluctant to talk about a position (until they are ready to sell it <g>). I can definitely see why people would find him irritating, especially more mature and experienced investors such as you. Tom
