Cramer not dealing with money in general,the way Suze Orman is, He deal with Mad Money that part of your Asset you don't want to lose but can afford to lose.

suze makes sense.kramer is for amusement only.....................

I LEARNED YEARS AGO WHEN SOMEONE SAYS "TRUST ME" OR YELLS AT ME THAT I SHOULD WALK AWAY.
CRAMERS RANTING MAKES SOME OF THE OLD TALKING HEAD SHOWS (MCCLOUGHLLIN GROUP) SEEM SEDATE. I COULD NOT AND WOULD NOT WATCH THEM, WHY SHOULD I SUBJECT MYSELF TO CRAMER?

- Suze Orman is a FAKE. She alleges she was a waitress better look at her IRS records, never at any time did she work as a quote "WAITRESS" she's FAKE, phony once you investigate her background you'll discover she blabs outloud but has very little else going on.

Regardless of whether one was a waitress or not has no relationship to the quality of advice. On this count Orman is very good and very helpful. Cramer claims to have been homeless and lived out of his car. That shows some fortitiude but is not relevant to his current day job.

Suze got to where she's at by stealing from her previous girlfriends. No matter how obnoxious Jim Kramer's style is, at least it doesn't disgust me to look at him, and hopefully he's not a hypocrite like Suze is.

To those that hate Orman. If your Pastor, Priest Rabbi or Iman was perfect but knew nothing about investing woud you take their advice over a person whose morals you question that was an expert offering sound advice?

kramer comes off like a trooper, but the lady appears to be holding back gas.

I agree Felix; I thought the same thing when I saw the pics that were added...not my call.

;-)

Hmmm...too bad the poll doesn't off a "neither" choice. Both of them aren't bad people (morally), but Suze offer stable, yet pedestrian new age vague advise that leaves a lot to be desired, and Crammer offers unstable, yet interestingly risky advise that offers an enjoyable social way to lose money.

I don't dislike either person and wish them well, but I wouldn't put too much cash behind their ideas even with further personal due diligence.

This is a classic battle between two marketing experts. Both Jim Cramer and Suze Orman do a great job of promoting themselves on television. I cannot comment on the quality of Cramer’s stock picks, but I can say that he been a successful hedge fund manager and has a very good educational background.

Orman is a liar and a moron. Do background checks and you will find out that she lies about her time on Wall Street, where she derives her income, and how many "clients" she has. Cramer talks about making money in the stock market... period! He focuses on what he is good at. Orman gives cookie cutter advice on a variety of financial matters in a "perfect world". "Pay off your credit cards, pay off your mortgage, only buy term insurace..." The reality is that most people have bigger mortgages then when they first bought the house, and that most people need life insurance for a much longer period of time then a term policy can stay inforce.

I like both of them. Susie has a financial plan for life and good for people just starting out and with Jim you should be playing some "mad money" not your nest egg. Jim is for a more financially mature audience.

At the extremes all Suzy has to say is pay off your credit cards and all Cramer has to say is do your homework, but closer up each has a drill -- one, for the trader, not the long investor, and the other, for folks who just haven't given much thought to the accumulation of savings and ultimately investing. There's plenty of room for both in my world.
