MSNBC money guy Jim Cramer usually gets hype in the media for his meltdowns and rants on television but the TV talking head had something pretty sober suggestions for some investors that have their money invested in the stock market. He told Ann Curry on the NBC Today show on Monday that investors may want to act fast.

His comments on NBC were to get out if the stock market now if possible, and especially if you need your money for the next five years. Wall Street has reacted to the $700 billion taxpayer funded bailout quite predictably. The DJIA has plummeted since President George W. Bush signed the bill into law on Friday.

Creamer will likely be labeled as a panic monger for the comments but in this market many are already doing just what he is advising. It is a very rough day on Monday for Wall Street already as it seems everyone is selling and the market is down sharply for the second straight Monday.
