Watched the "Marriage" videos with Cramer. I am still questioning whether I actually heard
Mason say that marrying rich "was a legitimate strategy." What next, investing in lottery
tickets? But what was most remarkable is how inarticulate Mason is. He stumbles on his
words so much, I could see Cramer getting uncomfortable.
But the most hilarious part was when I flipped down a few videos, and saw Cramer speech to
what I presume was Generation Y. What did he say? Basically, the exact opposite of what
you read in Mason's articles. Please let this Mason experiment end!

I think at the end of Cliff's third article, he suggests that he has a girlfriend
already.
Also, on this blog that James Altucher pointed out,
href="http://blog.guykawasaki.com/2007/06/by_the_numbers_.html"> Guy Kawasaki says
that "there is no such thing as bad PR.".
TheStreet.com once featured his videos on the front page with top billing. Each video you
watch has an advertisement.
On Mad Money, Jim Cramer suggests that everyone has already watched The Mason/Cramer
Chronicles and even pointed out Mad Money viewers to TheStreet.com.
I think my thesis that Cliff Mason, controversial as he is, is good for TheStreet.com's
business looks to be true.

Maybe he is saying that he is rich and single and is using that as a ploy to find a
girlfriend...caught red-handed.

Jack, interesting post.
But TheStreet.com put Cliff Mason's videos with Cramer on the front page with top billing.
There has to be some sort of calculated risk that Cliff Mason can bring Gen Y's to
TheStreet.com. I posted something in the other forum "Hidden Genius of ...", but I think
that forum has been hijacked.
I actually thought the third article was sort of semi-serious/part tongue-in-cheek.
So what would rather have a Harvard educated 22 year old write about at TheStreet.com?

I say lets give Cliff a hand. Here's a list of ideas of other heretical financial articles
he can write.
Pump and Dump Penny Stocks - How to make money and avoid SEC scrutiny
Internet Offshore Gambling - How to live in the Caribbean and set up a business where the
house always wins.
Pyramid chain letters - Easy email and loophole how tos to avoid prosecution and make
money.
Shell company IPO's - Capitalize a public company designed to do nothing but R&D -
preferably on something like party practices of leading universities.
Option Backdating - How to get your company to agree to give you most favorable pricing.
Not to mention a series done on the mechanics of the Enrons, Worldcoms and Tychos of the
world - How to profit and shield assets from seizure while shareholders go broke.

anderdw, I don't think he will get the boot. His uncle is trying to help him get his
start in the business but hopefully he will get better guidance first and the limelight
when he earns it.
