Business Week Mention - Mad Money Cover Article
Reasoned Investing was mentioned, albeit indirectly, in this week's Business Week cover article.
Cramer also made Brian Johnson, a Mad Money blogger in Tacoma, Wash., wealthier -- albeit unintentionally. Johnson's blog, which tracked Cramer's on-air stock picks, drew as many as 30,000 monthly hits and enough banner ads to make him consider quitting his day job -- until, he says, CNBC slapped him with a cease-and-desist letter. "It was incredible," he says. "Cramer's fans wrote me constantly."
Just to be clear, the amount of money that I've made from this website is minimal at best. However, I have indeed considered the possibilities of blogging full time. This web site attracted a great deal of traffic as the result of a couple of hours of work nightly. If the multiplication holds, at the peak earnings period for this website, 8 hours of blogging a day would have allowed for me to quit my day job and make close to a six figure salary. That said, earnings are so far off their peak it's crazy and the amount I've made in total from blogging wouldn't buy more than 10 iPod's.
Some, like Darren Rowse of Problogger.net, have been able to earn a living blogging, I don't think I'll be doing so anytime soon.
