Ray Dalio is not only an icon for our generation to learn to understand the economy, but he’s also so humble that it’s easy to miss just how significant his observations are

[@SuperKonkari]

He was not always humble, but certainly humbled by experiences.

[@DaviMourao]

@@SuperKonkari Which actually makes it more interesting, since being arrogant (he will be the first one to admit that) led to his 80s crisis fiasco.

[@MindDataAI]

I literally typed the same thing even before reading your comment!

[@Caek_daddy]

In 21 lessons for the 21st century by Harari, he talks about how humans think in stories rather than facts and logic. He says that humans usually use their intellect to reinforce the stories they believe rather than seeing if their beliefs/stories are actually true. I think Ray's experience with the markets(or anyone) lead to thinking logically because believing false things in the markets leads to pain. I also think politicians are very big on stories compared to facts :/

[@Re3iRtH]

You realize that it's all an act? Read his books.

[@SpeakChinglish]

Maybe wisdom comes with age, I just find Ray Dalio so humble, polite, nice tempered, patient, intelligent and wise. He is even teaching everyone about economics and etc via KZbin videos. For someone who is so rich, it is amazing to see he care so much about other people. We need more people like him in the world.

How to know what you do not know? ray dalio idea meritocracy is one of the solutions. love his books n articles. i have seen too many in the financial industry talking gibberish and voodoo , Ray is a beacon of light. Thank you for your ideas and books

[@jeremiahbarlow1924]

Ray Dalio, you have a beautiful mind! I could listen to you for hours and hours and never get tired of your insight! Thank you for sharing.

[@andychang2739]

When it comes to macro economists, or finance guys, or any other spectators and analysts of the economy, there's no one who I trust more than Ray Dalio.

[@fastian7956]

His style of conversation is so natural and forthcoming that it strikes a chord every now and then and allows one to reflect inwards and outwards in a more practical and doable way. Amazing.

[@southalpha9569]

The China debt Q&A at the end was the best. You can desagree with Ray all you want about China, but you have to respect that he's only following his process and that's what we all should be doing.

[@davidmaes-gallegos4772]

Ray Dalio: American Hero. Hopefully US Treasury Secretary in the next US Administration. He has the best people, we will need him.

[@231wildy]

Anyone who had "fell hard" financially would surely concur with much of Ray's beliefs and principles. Yes, the most important take away is his humility about him predicting wrongly about the market in 1982. One cannot be too certain. I like to quote this from Howard Marks' story of the one horse race. Even if one is so certain about an outcome, something else can happen instead. Appreciate Ray Dalio for his generosity in sharing his lessons and experience.

[@kepstein8888]

[@georgikorovski9054]

[@刻时-u4v]

Ray will MAGA, wich is not a good idea, just stick with dumpo. Dumpo as POTUS is more entertainment, the world is now laughing at the US which will not happen without dumpo.

[@ErickOberholtzer]

He is too sincere, he would never win. Nice thought, though.

[@senorhedvoycez6017]

I would say he be appointed Fed Chair

[@Caek_daddy]

I wish.

[@unitedstatesofpostamerica7559]

I find him so much more insightful than other “elites”. He’s willing to acknowledge problems like inequality and political fragmentation that others won’t confront. Wish we had leaders who could understand this. Buffet doesn’t seem to grasp the “paradigm” we are going into.

[@thanititthisukanant1444]

China debt is the last question in the Q&A; glad that I listened to the end.

[@sandeepvk]

thanks i went straight to the last question

[@pixelmasque]

great to hear Rays view of the China debt, so many nay sayers out there who dont have Rays depth of researched insight.

[@Omariau]

@@pixelmasque I know right, I have been investing in china as I have low confidence in US stocks considering their current valuations while many chinese stocks just went through a bear market. And it surely is reassuring to know that El Maestro is investing there as well and feel confident about the country's future.

[@Banderson3277]

LOL Iove this comment, he does

[@Nukacola633]

Ray Dalio low key, just described a metacognitive process. By inverting the process of how to make a judgement made to how to conceptualize a problem, he inverted the typical equation of judgment then problem, by choosing to reconceptualize the world, (hence the problem.) So rather than writing a plan of action he chose to meta his own thinking. So instead of writing a strategy he wrote a ‘What do I think?’ first and then a ‘What do I think about what I think and what can I make of this?’ Scrutinizing his understanding on paper to allow and better scrutinize his own judgment (written) in order to arrive at a more accurate depiction of reality (the world.) (hence other, opposing minds come in handy as antagonistic and scrutinized for his version of the world.) Here it is better to conceptualize/envision the understanding; really the problem and then the judgment as to how to act. This is required, for better action. This is most incredible because he accurately describes the process, he’s describing meta-cognitive thought and is a great communicator. The guy basically is not talking about the economy, he’s a low key great communicator. He’s visualizing a problem before attacking it. People don’t do this even if they think they do, it’s not the judgement made first, it’s writing the conditions of action. Or more specifically the question or what causes/provokes the necessitates action. This allows him to play to a more parallel world. He’s therefore much more congruent with reality. He’s a straight forward thinker. I think his thinking is as much a result of his scrupulousness as it is his way to meta his own judgement. He delineates the conditions for action in the world before how he’s going to act in it. There concisely, fucking finally. Thanks.

[@singularity-6339]

Nice capture. I also think it is an effect of being long time meditation practitioner. It taught you how to observe your mind and its behavior.

[@ErickOberholtzer]

How fucked up were you when you wrote this? Honest question.

[@Nukacola633]

Hey guys, thanks for the honest questions. I don’t understand why ‘I’m high’ when writing but this stuff is hard to describe. I always think paradoxically it’s easy to define stuff and harder to describe it. Anyways, I’m practicing writing, so I’ll happily take the compliments and run with them.

39:15 "when it gets bad enough, they will always print". On the money, isn't he?! Or in our current situation, on the trillions.

[@vidikoan]

^ underrated comment

[@maritimezhang]

If the world keeps buying they they will keep printing. Problem arrives when they slow it down on the buy side but the printing side doesn’t. And we already see it, they are buying hard asset in real estate and factories.

[@bcaominh]

They are not really printing. The FED is buying back treasuries from commercial banks in exchange for money. This is also known as Reverse Repo or Debt Monetization. Conversely to common understanding- reverse repos take liquidity out of the market and therefore create a deflationary economic crisis e.g. it will be harder to get access to credit, followed by a housing bubble burst ten times worse than 2008. Look at China and the Evergrande situation now. The crisis will hit us by December.

34:24 Bravo. Successful capitalists like Ray Dalio are usually very generous and would gladly help the poor (like with microfinance) if the government didn't soak them for taxes. Cut the government (aka middleman) out of the equation, and you suddenly have a much more efficient (and voluntary) transfer of critical resources from the haves to the have nots.

[@rohitandley]

He gave us a hint 4 years ago and its happening. Dedollarization has begun, countries are trying to become more independent and since China, India, Africa and other developing nation have the potential for growth, we maybe witnessing a shift happen.

[@maalat]

Don't be fooled. He is a more humble guy than before and he is making himself, his company and clients rich. However, he is part of a system that benefits his chosen career. This system is hurting millions of Americans. The quantitative easing is no more than PRINTING MORE and MORE MONEY so they can play their game. He is honest to say that there is a GAP between the money available and the ASSETS meaning the stocks that are now sky high that less people can trade. By printing more money, they can trade. What about the salaries of ordinary people? Do they have a category of printing money so that we can have higher salaries to afford the basic needs? We need some EASING, too! How? One way you can help the millions of ordinary Americans is to honestly tax the 1% the private, multinational, global corporations, and restrict companies to use borrowed money to buy back assets (artificially increase the price per stock). Instead, use the borrowed money it to expand business and increase employment. Instead of printing more money, they should allow stocks to honestly find their true worth, and not base the price on the companies and investors' extrapolation (greed).
