Take TheStreet.com's latest "Mad Money" culture quiz to see how much of the show you caught last week or just to immerse yourself in Cramer's nonfinancial madness. Private-equity firms are making "crate loads of money," and Jim Cramer wants other people to get in on the action, too, he told viewers on his "Mad Money" TV show Monday. Private-equity firms take public companies private. When they buy a company, it's just like any acquisition, Cramer said. "They pay a premium," and if people are in the stock before it gets taken private, then they will get paid that premium, as well. It doesn't matter what happened yesterday, he said, because that won't make people any money. Instead, market players should aim at figuring out what the private-equity folks are going to buy tomorrow. About a month ago, Cramer said, Goldman SachsGS came out with a "terrific" report related to which stocks could be taken private.
