He is ridiculous

JP Morgan’s predatory lending is to blame for his stupidity…..that’s a good one Lenny.

When banks denied sub prime loans in the 80's

They were accused of racism.

Predatory lending is a big problem

But I can’t imagine how it would have affected Lenny’s investments specifically.

I looooooved this quote

These people, some of the stuff I read, I don’t read much because I feel bad for my eyes, but I see some of the stuff, it’s insanity! The only one that got this thing right was [Jim] Cramer. Cramer. Cramer has been the only guy right."

I can think one thing Cramer got wrong, at least: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lo77x4VeoQE

Yeah the only reason he is kissing Cramer's back side is because

Cramer kissed Lenny’s butt, by giving him some air time so he could inflate one of his stock picks. A tug for a tug, if you will.

LOL, Yeah this 60 minutes piece is a classic. Nothing says bubble economy like this video. A great window into a time period

Not only is he doing well, he is one of the great ones. He is one of the great ones.

I love it!

Another one I love:

Dykstra has a complex stock picking philosophy that he tried to explain to me to absolutely no avail.

The best was when Cramer was on The Daily Show

Jon Stewart wasn’t particularly pleased with Cramer if I remember correctly.

Oh you remember correctly

And remember that Jon is one of us. Yeah Yankees, you might have Billy Crystal but we have motherf**ing Jon Stewart.

Jon Stewart’s my homeboy, even if the one time I went to see the Daily Show I arrived an hour before anyone else and got stuffed in the corner and was blocked the entire time by the camera. I get it’s a free show and all, but I waited in line for 3 and a half freakin’ hours and they couldn’t give us front in the middle? The people behind us got front row in the middle. That was poor Jon Stewart, that was poor.

I heard this live

Nails is out of his mind.

How Darren Daulton can think the world is ending next year and openly admit (on video) that he’s traveled – via mind waves composed of light – to the future and back… and be considered the less crazy ’93 Phillie…. is mind boggling.

You've never traveled via mindwaves composed of light?

You need to look into that man. It’s pretty awesome. Except that every time I do it I end up in Detroit without my wallet. Needless to say I’m kind of pissed at the universe about that.
