Mad Money is Coming to My University

So I just got an email that Mad Money and Jim Cramer are coming to my school in April and that I can get free tickets. Any thoughts for crazy stuff during the show? I'm thinking along the lines of maybe getting a bunch of people to wear crazy shirts and run in front of the camera during the show. Everyone here hates him, so it'll be crazier than when Alberto Gonzalez came to our school.

On a side note, anybody near the Columbus area looking to buy some tickets? 😀
 
Definitely do the masks. Sneak them in under your shirts, and put them on during the show.

edit: oh, and I doubt it'll be live, so get someone to sneak a video camera in for Youtube uploads and Daily Show fame. 🙂
 
It all sounds lame. In fact it almost seems sort of funny in that I imagine a bunch of college kids are sitting around thinking that they are going to be all sorts of 'clever' or 'original' or 'funny' and do some stupid shit just because of the entire Jon Stewart - Jim Cramer thing. What, like the college kids are going to "school" Jim Cramer on something or another.

I would say just go to the show and enjoy yourself. Or don't.

Actually doing something is almost by definition more original, clever, and funny than never doing anything. And what makes you think that college kids can't "school" Jim Cramer on something? The purpose of college is to do futile idealistic quasi-antisocial exercises while you're too young to face the repercussions. Someone's gotta hold the signs and stick the flowers on the rifle barrels, and it certainly isn't going to be a working Joe with a mortgage and five mouths to feed.
 
B-B-B-B-B-B-B-BOOOOOYEAHHHHHHH!!!!!

I dunno. It'd be fun to attend one of his shows, just to see what it's like live.
 
Jim Cramer is an Fing tard. You really need to do something that will get the attention of major media outlets. I'm talking a career ending act. He does a tremendous disservice to amateur investors (should say speculators).

"Making investing fun". What bullcrap. The guy has no clue and got lucky to start a hedge fund in 1991. He says some things that are smart, but most things are just stupid and ignorant. He has the skills of a 4th grader and the talking skills of a CEO.

3 questions to make Jim sound like an idiot:
Ask him to explain discounted cash flow modeling (DCF). Ask him to explain why you can't buy companies with uncertain futures because projecting future free cash flows is impossible. And if you can't do that, how can one do a buy/sell recommendation? He'll be lost on this basic concept of actual investing. I do it. And once learned, it's not that hard.

Sorry for insulting those here that think they are investors. If you don't understand the previous paragraph, you are not investors. By definition, you are speculators.

JNJ is worth $90+ via DCF. BNI is worth $80+ via DCF. WEB knows this as do I and otehr actual investors. It''s only a question of buying with a margin of safety.

Speculation (in a financial context) is the assumption of the risk of loss, in return for the uncertain possibility of a reward. Understanding BNI does not take a rocket scientist. And if anyone looks for hte WEB speeches at youttube about KO, you'll quickly realize why he likes it so much (valuation being another discussion)

Mad Money brought it amongst themselves by coming to a university. If I don't do something, I'm sure many others will. Clearly you have not spent much time at a major university.

Ask him why he's such a pansy for shorting anything.

It's not like I'll get within 100 feet of him to ask him anything 😛

I didn't know that show travelled... 😕

As for the John Steward mask idea: :thumbsup:

The Daily Show came to OSU in 2006.
