Well, I hope you realize that 22% in 2 days was not my only
investment for the year. In 1998, I did over 22 TIMES as
well as Mr. Cramer in total % return for the year, and in 1997,
much better as well (I don't recall his 1997 annual % return,
but I saw it once, and recall comparing, and mine was much better).

I didn't invest seriously prior to then, so have no 15 year
record to compare, but in strict calendar year comparisons,
I've done better than him so far...

So, just my opinion: I prefer taking advice from those who do
better than I do, not worse. He has value, but comes across
as "The Gift To The World", and I find that annoying.
