Jim Cramer believes that there is always a bull market somewhere, and he wants to help you find it. Cramer is host of CNBC's "Mad Money" (M-F: 6 p.m., 11 p.m. ET), featuring lively guest interviews, viewer calls and, most importantly, the unmatched, fiery opinions of Cramer himself. He serves as the viewer's personal guide through the confusing jungle of Wall Street investing, navigating through both opportunities and pitfalls with one goal in mind -- to help them make money.

In addition to writing a column for TheStreet.com, Cramer also serves as the "Bottom Line" columnist for New York magazine.

He graduated from Harvard College where he was President and Editor-in-Chief of the prestigious daily The Harvard Crimson.

He retired from his hedge fund in 2001, where he finished with one of the best records in the business, including  having a plus 36% year in 2000.

He helped Steve Brill launch American Lawyer magazine before attending Harvard Law School and earned a law degree. Upon graduating and passing the New York State Bar Examination and being admitted to the NY State Bar, Cramer joined Goldman Sachs in sales and trading. While at Goldman, Cramer wrote for The New Republic about stock market issues.

In December 2006, he published his latest book, Mad Money: Watch TV, Get Rich, which is a user's guide to making the most of his CNBC program. Cramer is also the author of  Stay Mad For LifeJim Cramer's RealMoney, Confessions of a Street Addict and You Got Screwed.
