Finance involves math, so it's always been a nerd's game. That's why it was a great victory for jocks everywhere when Lenny Dykstra proved even a dim, slovenly, allegedly racist and homophobic ex-athlete could become a successful investor. And if it anyone was due for a victory in a post-Revenge of the Nerds America, it was the jocks. But much like a fist-sized hunk of chaw, it was not meant to last.

I wrote a humor column for TheStreet.com for 3 years. Paid well.
Then I stopped.
Then they sent me 1040 for about three times what they actually paid me… looks like someone's trying to fabricate expenses! Stay classy, Cramer.
