Comments on: Stock Market Moron – Jim Cramer – Calls For The Destruction of Mortgage Brokers http://www.biggerpockets.com/renewsblog/2009/03/17/stock-market-moron-jim-cramer-calls-destruction-mortgage-brokers/ Learn, Network, Invest Sun, 12 Feb 2012 02:59:04 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Rick Wargohttp://www.biggerpockets.com/renewsblog/2009/03/17/stock-market-moron-jim-cramer-calls-destruction-mortgage-brokers/#comment-64543 Rick Wargo Tue, 17 Mar 2009 17:27:42 +0000 http://www.biggerpockets.com/renewsblog/?p=4585#comment-64543 Aside from the context from which this discussion has stemmed, (Cramer & Stewart) which in and of itself lends itself to unlimited insights; blaming brokers is like blaming liquor stores for alcholism, car dealers for traffic fatalities, grocery stores for obesity. You get my point. As soon as we can accept rather than resist this breakdown we can move forward with a breakthrough. The question becomes; What do we now have access to that we didn't before? And then; What's next? The challenge will be to move past the emotion, to stop taking it personally. I do what I do because it's what was appropriate at the time for me and what I knew at that time. I assert the same is true for everyone: Borrowers, Bankers, Investors (even Moms & Dads!). Accept it for what it is and allow the resources that are currently being spent on defending and resisting to be used on transformation.

We should not get rid of brokers. They serve a purpose in the marketplace. But you should know that Cramer's comments are meant to do one thing and one thing only - discredit industries and companies that he and his cronies have short positions in. I can guarantee you that he is short several if not all of the publicly traded mortgage brokers and anyone who does business with them. He is not a moron, he is just completely unethical and immoral.
