Imagine trying to put out a fire by trying to eliminate the smoke - For the smoke is not a phenomenon, but an epiphenomenon!

Jimmy Cramer's "Mad Women"

I propose a new CNBC show named "Mad Women" in the mold of "Mad Money" from Jimmy Cramer.

A typical show:

Caller: Hello?

Cramer: Hello...

Caller: Bu bu bu bu bu yaaaah Jimmy!

Cramer: Bu bu bu bu bu yaaaah to you as well! What is your name?

Caller: Josh.

Cramer: All right Josh, what is up?

Caller: I have this girlfriend, we have been dating for half a year and everything... But nowadays she is into drugs. She is getting high all the time, and I do not know what to do.

Cramer: Hmmm, I do not like the drug sector Josh! Drugs are always problematic, they have side effects and disrupt your life (Cramer pushes the "House of Pain" sound effect button). When she gets really high, it is time to dump this stock, I mean, girl. You will be glad you did! (Cramer pushes the "House of Pleasure" sound effect button)

Cramer: Now the section - "Am I diversified?"

Caller: Bu bu bu yah Jimmy, here are the women I know...

Cramer: Go ahead!

Caller: I am chatting with one girl online, I have been to two dates with some co-workers at work, and there is this Gothic chick....

Cramer: Wait wait wait.... You have been going so well, then this Gothic girl?? No, that sector is trouble, my friend, everyone in Cramerica knows how I feel about Goths (Cramer pushes the "THEY KNOW NOTHING!" sound effect button). Go online, go on dates with gals at work, but no Gothic girls please.

And always remember: Diversification is the only free lunch you will ever get!
