Jim Cramer's Getting Back to Even

De: James J. Cramer

Narrado por: James J. Cramer

Personal finance expert, bestselling author, and host of CNBC’s Mad Money Jim Cramer offers specific advice about how to overcome your fear of the markets and recover your investments in an economic crisis.

You don’t even look at your 401(k) statements any longer. When mail comes from your broker or your mutual fund, you throw it in a drawer unopened. You know how bad things are and you’re just waiting for them to improve before you start thinking about your money again. But how long will that take? How many opportunities will you miss while you hide your head in the sand? Shouldn’t you be doing something?

Jim Cramer says that there are positive steps you can take to start the financial healing process. You can start to get back to even, then go from there. Cramer explains how to make the best of the bad situation you're in, and how not to succumb to fear and panic. He tells you what steps to take depending on your age and your financial goals. Getting Back to Even will include advice on refinancing a mortgage, recovering from job loss or downsizing, and making a new financial plan. It includes twenty new rules for investing that fit the current economic climate.

Jim Cramer believes that the stock market is still the best long-term investment anyone can make. He offers guidance on which stocks to select—or how to find a reliable and successful mutual-fund manager—and how to spot the economic recovery when it happens.

Whether you’re twenty-five and investing to build wealth or sixty-five and hoping to restore your retirement savings, you’ll need the advice Jim Cramer offers in Getting Back to Even.©2009 J.J. Cramer; (P)2009 Simon & Schuster

Awesome!

I like the keep it simple explaining that was presented. This book was easy to follow and understand. I would recommend this book to people who appreciate the simple approach looking for a clear explanation and introduction into exploring the market.

Positive Attitude, Positive Actions

Cramer is always good for a list of actions you can really take, and for a positive attitude about getting your money working for you.

A great second book on the markets.

Would you consider the audio edition of Jim Cramer's Getting Back to Even to be better than the print version?

Sadly the audio version doesn't... It's a Cheeseburger with no meat.
It's great to listen to, but it needs to be illustrated Unfortunatly.

Who was your favorite character and why?

The last one, specifically the stock replacement part

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yeah...

Any additional comments?

It could have been soooo good, but it's like football on the radio....

Very basic, ok if you are just starting to trade

The book is ok, as long as you have not spend much time reading about trading before. Nothing in this book is new, but it is a good overview.

A good overview of the book.

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

Listening to the book gave a good overview. You can definitely tell it is an abridged version I would have liked to have had the option for the unabridged version. As long as you keep a high level view in mind for the instructions it is good.

How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?

I would have liked have to have added more content.

What about James J. Cramer’s performance did you like?

It was nice to hear things in typical Jim Cramer fashion.

Did Jim Cramer's Getting Back to Even inspire you to do anything?

It did solidify some things that I already knew and gave me insight into other things that I did not know

ONLY 1 # 1

This is the Absolute best finance Audio book I have purchased from audible, and I have bought many!Cramer truely has the bachelors and the bravado to share the stocks he knows and likes.With a heart for teaching unequal by anyone else this book is written at the most lucrative time coming off the March low and should be looked back upon several years from now as for making the interested speculator/Investor a Fortune! Two thumbs up Mr.Cramer,well done for a MUST READ! :)

Basic information, but dated

Would you try another book from James J. Cramer and/or James J. Cramer?

Yes, crammer is a good source

Was Jim Cramer's Getting Back to Even worth the listening time?

Barely, the book mainly address a relatively short period after the 2008 market collapse.

Back to even and then some because of this guy!

The hero of the everyday investor or trader and inspiration to so many to get in the game we call the stock market, does it again. Watch Mad Money on CNBC and read this man's books if you are looking for investment guidance.

Great

Jim Cramer - is fantastic. I am learning so much thank you. Top recommendation for those learning

Significantly abridged compared to written book.

Eleven chapters in the written book, but only five in this audiobook. Cramer's old title, "You Got Screwed!" came to mind when I realized that I paid for an audiobook including none of the chapters for advanced strategies present in the written book.
