Title: To Tell the Truth?
Review: True or not, it is a fun read.I found it useful in understanding the mindset of Hedge fund management and not just the Rev. Jim Bob. I had imagined Jim's operation as a Mahogany or Marble walled complex located at a prestigious Wall Street address operated by Gen-X boiler room sharks. Instead the author paints a scene of a one-table room above a Deli whose walls have long past needing a fresh coat of paint (let alone Marble or Mahogany).If this book had been written a fiction, I would have found it hard to believe the antics of the principal character. Since it is published as a non-fiction "Kiss and Tell" about Cramer, I think it is more believable.Did Jim do all the things the author claims? Don't know and don't care. I am sure everything done in the book was done by some Hedge Fund manager somewhere.If the accounts are not true, Cramer has a great lawsuit.After reading the book, I have started playing: "Gangsta's Paradise" before each trading day!
