TIME: The Big Difference Between Jim Cramer & I

Watch these 7 free video lessons on how I became a millionaire

Obviously he’s 50x richer than me, his picks underperform while I dominate indexes, he’s got 1,000x more exposure (after all, he works for a popular TV channel truly ignorant regarding penny stocks and proud to pass on such ignorance to their unsuspecting viewers) and with 10x as much hedge fund experience, while I’m younger and better looking (not bald), but many people compare us because of our similar passion for the stock market and our ability to inspire others to share such a passion

But we are VERY different in terms of what matters to subscribers of my 4 newsletters and subscribers of his once-decent-but-now-a-friggin-joke-AAP.

A perfect example:

When I made yesterday’s video watchlist for PennyStocking Silver subscribers choosing the rather controversial yet ultimately DEAD ON position of calling Tesla Motors Inc (TSLA) a potential buy if it started breaking out past its $25ish prior day highs:

tsla

…I knew that Jim Cramer had already tweeted “$TSLA should be sold at the opening if you haven’t sold it yet….”

Now given that TSLA finished around $24 yesterday after opening in the $25s, you’re probly thinking that wasn’t such a bad call.

But he and his followers missed out on the FULLY PREDICTABLE morning spike to $30 and the late morning spike past $30 which I FULLY PREDICTED in that video above.

It comes down to knowing and predicting price action–Jimmy boy is so busy with all his businesses and “celebrity” that he doesn’t have time to watch the price action like I do…watching price action is a huuuuuuge timesuck, but by doing it day in day out, instead of wasting time getting done up in make up or doing guest spots on non-financial media outlets, I am able to better predict future price action while he simply cannot, forced to rely on the ghost-writing, research and talent of others (most of whom in finance are junk, as evidenced by JC’s performance).

So if our newsletters are priced roughly the same, guess whose subscribers perform better and learn more.

I believe the reviews of Jim Cramer’s Action Alerts Plus and the reviews of TIMalerts to be quite telling.

    I know for a fact that your mother washes your filthy shorts and has to clean your toilet so you don’t die of plague.

    You will never be as good a trader as I, my twitter posts defy comparison. 96% winners, and I dont have to pay for web hosting like you.

  • Oldboy23

    you are funny old Jimmy boy. How much did you and Martin paid again to startup T.S. ? More then Timmy boy paid for hosting in a year for sure. and that with out inflation rate….

  • Darthtatertot

    In your Tim alerts email from the 30th, you say that you should have bought TSLA at 19 dollars and at 24 ‘the opportunity has passed’. That makes it sound like it’s no longer a buy. But apparently silver subscribers have been told to buy? That doesn’t make sense to me. I thought the difference between Tim alerts and silver was that silver members had video lessons and watchlists, not complete opposite advice from Tim alerts.

    the opportunity for me to buy a solid breakout had past…the video was for silver subscribers if TSLA really started breaking out, it could surge a ton…obviously not a timalert, but a potential trade for them…just pay the extra 50/month so you’re not confused int he future

    Your such a jew

  • Qstock83

    umm hi i am just looking at your last trade that u post for July 14 when you trade NUSMF it say that u brought at $2.12 and sold at $2.53…there is no possible way that u could have sold it at $2.53 the moment market was open it was down till July 16….never even touch the price of $2.53 or anywhere near it… so how is it that u were able to sell NUSMF at $2.53 on July 14?

    Hey Tim,
    You know what the Big Similarity between you and Cramer is? You both are arrogant douchebags both on and off the television. Yeah, I saw Wall Street Warriors. Still not having luck with the ladies? Hate to break it to you but your not much better looking than decrepit Cramer. And is your mom still your indentured servant?
    Sincerely,
