Title: Tough to decide who I dislike more...
Review: As portrayed in the book, Jim Cramer is one of the most loathsome figures on Wall Street. The only slight mitigating factor is that Cramer appears to be a text-book bipolar personality and therefrore pity rather than hatred seems the more appropriate emotion in his case. Unfortunatly for the reader, Maier is hardly a sympathetic charater either. Maier fed at Cramer's trough for years never having had the courage to stand up for himself, his co-workers or his friends (especially his lifelong friend Marty Peretz). Maier's public attack and betrayal of Cramer (and partner Jeff Berkowitz) with a kiss-and-tell book is so, well...Crameresque. However, unlike Cramer, Maier cannot plead the insanity defense.Stick to Liar's Poker if you want a good, funny inside Wall Street book...
