Need to get a gift for someone and not sure what to get?  Jim Cramer’s new book is an excellent idea. Jim Cramer has a fantastic show on CNBC every weeknight about the stock market and investing.  While that might sound boring to you, Jim is known for his lively and accessible style.

His new book Stay Mad for Life goes beyond just investing in the stock market and delves into how you can attain financial freedom, no matter who you are or what your current situation is.

Here is an excerpt from the introduction:

Most people don’t think about it, but there’s a difference between making a lot of money and building lasting wealth. When it comes to money we think that striking it rich is the ultimate goal. I know because I used to feel that way. In reality, getting rich isn’t the financial finish line. It’s the first lap of a much longer race. I’m talking about ensuring long-term prosperity for you and your family: not just getting rich, but staying rich. That’s what each and every one of us truly wants to achieve with our money, and I don’t care who you are, who your parents are, where you live, or what you do for a living: you can do it if you let me help you. I don’t care if you don’t have two cents to your name or if you owe thousands of dollars in credit card debt. I am confident I can get you there. You may think of yourself as someone who’s awful with money; you could be a person who’s tried and failed to get anywhere with every single financial plan you’ve ever been handed, like so many failed faddish diets. Whether you’re 16 or 60, sending your kids to college or sending yourself to college, I’m writing this book to tell you everything you will ever need to know and everything you must do to create and maintain the kind of wealth that lasts a lifetime. I want you to get there and stay there.
