I had the distinct pleasure of serving him in his home a few years back, I was the server and one chef came and we served Ray and 12 Tibetan monks. I got to stand there and listen to Ray ponder purpose and meaning of life with 12 people who had no material possessions, coming from a man worth $20B+. It was so eye-opening and serves as memories I’ll cherish for the rest of my life.

    The stock market is a complex system that is influenced by a variety of factors, including economic indicators, political events, and global trends. The relationship between policies and the stock market can be complex and multifaceted, and it can take time for the full effects of policies to be reflected in market trends. Therefore, it is possible that policies implemented in the past may have a "lagged effect" on the stock market, as their full impact may not be felt until later on.

      you're absolutely right, the stock market is a dynamic and constantly changing environment that can be influenced by a wide range of factors, including government policies. It is important to approach investing with a long-term perspective, also, understand the potential factors that contribute to your financial growth, I'll advise you to seek the help of a professional investment coach and to carefully consider the potential risks and rewards of any investment decision.

      Hey Lex. Huge fan. Recently finished M Pillsbury’s alarming book “100 Year Marathon” - (chronicles PCP’s (sic for the censors) “unrestricted warfare” against USA) and have since done a deep dive on how China has used classic Marxist subversion techniques - (eg fanning tribalism, elite capture - (gotta assume Mr Dalio has been a target )- and media / narrative control - all chronicled in KGB manuals published in the 1950s Ive been studying - to undermine Uncle Sammie. Need ur help. Ive heard u several times muse abt “Heroic Action”. Would it not be heroic to have Pillsbury on and then ask why only MIT and Stanford still have Conf Inst on campus - have some MIT Conf Inst admin reps on? Find out how much PCP cash has flowed thru MIT in last 5 years? Any chance MIT is assisting in making PLA conv. ballistic missiles - u know the ones that target our carrier battle groups in W Pacific - more accurate? Gotta say Im worried potential T T T T Treason is going on w MIT knowingly assisting our enemy develop and enhance weapons intended to be used against our sailors, soldiers and airmen - and maybe against all of us. If Im wrong u can kick my ass in a boxing ring - will sign any waiver u want. Will gladly bleed to ensure USA is safe from elite Treason.

      I agree, but I think the concept should somehow include ways to expand/create/construct more paradigms. Just because retrospection has highlighted seemingly inevitable patterns, doesn't mean the future ought to be as such. There could be better ways to live and I think exploring those thought constructs would be a great thing to teach.
      In other words >> Rather than this being dogma it would be a cautionary tale.
      Somehow the world got this way and the question is >> Do we want to live like this ? What are the other possibilities ? How would we get there ?
      In essence I do not think it wise to instill narratives which could lead to complacency or further perpetuate dominance/wars. It's really cool that Mr. Dalio is able to teach us these paradigms and we should expand upon it. I wonder if people learned this earlier in life it would change their perspectives on first jobs or working for lower wages.
      For example: Rather than being upset at their paycheck and feel like they are at the bottom of the totem pole or that employers are taking advantage of minimum wage workers... Perhaps they might think that they are contributing towards a better economy by providing low cost food for a booming economy. Like a temporary rite of passage rather than a permanent socioeconomic status. ( it's just an idea )

In regard to your question, trust in yourself and dont rely on others to inform your investments, that way you will learn how to invest better yourself and taking accountability will make it so you have no one to blame if you lose and no one to owe if you win.

      I would love to see Peter Thiel on this show. However, I think it would be rather debate than interview. It’s because unlike this interview where Lex and Dalio agree on fundamental framework of centralised governance, Peter thinks in much more libertarian framework of decentralised governance. Hence, it will be challenge for Lex to unpack what Peter Thiel is trying to say (especially when it comes to his stance on China). It would be a great debate to watch, not really an interview.

    Thank you for another rich conversation, this time filled with neutral perspectives of different economic systems. One thing he kept coming back to when talking about his decision making process was the concept of core PRINCIPLES. This is key and is easy to lose sight of in the midst of everyday stimulus.
    Another jewel was his advice for young people (which is valid for people in all stages of their lives if they look at it in terms of "life chapters"): "Know yourself. Follow your passion. Make your work and your passion the same thing, while considering the money part... If you know yourself, feel the pull, and pursue that passion... You will have mistakes. You will have weakness.... Don't fight them. Understand them.
    Pain + Reflection = Progress."
    1. Know what you're going after, your goal.
    2. Understand your problems and obstacles.
    3. Diagnose them to get to the root problem. Be objective.
    4. Design a way to get around them.
    5. Implement that design.

      Sure...

      Centralization & Digitaliszation = Super Power.
      A) CBDC
      B) Data-driven, target-oriented economy
      C) → ai-based optimization of the assignment of the system's resources, including HR (based on data-driven, centralized communication & collaboration / digital workspace solution on a global scale...)
      If you wanna work in the perfect team with the perfect project, vision, mission, outcome, working-content and so on ...
      ... you will work in the Chinese's system - from all over the world.
      PS: in a transparent world: why do you need a financial service anymore?
      Based on economic sciences, there is no need for these services any more then ...

      @@stephenrohaim382 you're right but Taiwan and Hong Kong aren't the same as main land China, and I said nothing about freedom but to your point, other than absolute communism or absolute fascism any system is capable of providing freedom but on a population that doesn't know what freedom is, you can't just flip a switch to make them free and expect the same result as anywhere else. Quite literally as Ray said this isn't an approval of those systems but an understanding that different populations react differently to various administration systems, Hong Kong is a fair example of this in their resistance of the Chinese takeover these last two years.

There is plenty of resistance against the party. And condemning them all to perpetual state slavery to justify investments in an enemy regime.. it gives me the chills when people speak like that. He is effectively an apologist for China, we should not be doing any business with them as they literally intend to spread their system across the globe.

      @@stephenrohaim382 no one here said the Chinese system is right or that it is popular, but we can't assume our system is the solution just because people in China go against the administration, we tried that approach in Afganistan and it lasted a whole 20 seconds. That is because populations have to want their freedom so much that they're willing to create chaos in the short term but i am positive XI has better popularity in China than Biden has in the US, Ray (hate bringing him up) talks about the Chinese system because the US is losing in most of the races that we'd have to take an objective approach to study what actually made the Chinese successful and we both know the Chinese aren't successful because they are denying freedom but the 6 thousand years of hard working culture that delivers when a system that is bad in every sense of the word levrages it to its advantage, but i think we'd both agree its a bit humorous to suggest 'we' stop doing business with them when China holds much of the cards right now, and the American system we know has it's weaknesses not by its self necessarily but through the childish politics games we play assuming either half of the population are either snowflakes or racist bigots, so the solution in my opinion for the US is take the lesson from China in that Americans need to toughen up for hard times, Increase their work output by a whole lot and make their relationships with other countries one of mutually benefiting business and not some crusade to impose their system on the rest of the world. Because if the US doesn't get it's $#it together China is gonna fully tie up the world through 'business relations' and every country will start acting like the NBA (sadly, which if you think about it, is already happening).
      The solution to much of it all is in the US not any other place.

      I wonder if anyone would have said in 1944 that National Socialism might not be popular or right but we couldnt assume that ours was the solution. I think we very easily can point out that our system is better more moral and indeed provides individuals with freedom. A nation that runs concentration camps, disappears dissdents, carries out forced organ harvests of dissents and thats just the tip of the iceberg can certainly do with a western style democracy. XI is a dictator of the type you see in North Korea or last century in Europe, of course he is popular the old leaders of the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe were also always very popular. When someone comes with the 6000 or 5000 years of history myth I know someone has been eating a little too much chinese propaganda and myth, the Shang dynasty is the earliest documented with archeological proof, beyond that it is pure myth. And never mind the CCP tried to eradicate that history during the Culture revolution, before they found it more useful as a propaganda tool. There is no 5000 years of unbroken history in China that latest break was with the CCP taking power. China is not that old and the life of Confusius overlapped with those of Socrates and Phytagoras, China was unified long after the great Empire of Alexander the great. Its a nice tool for the CCP these myths it helps create an idea of inevitability, yet there is nothing inevitable about China rising to dominance it can be stopped and it must be stopped.
      Nobody suggests we just say stop and halt all trade with China tomorrow, what we must do is detangle from China and move all western companies out of China and give them both incentives to do so and penalties if they do not. Trading with China today is like trading with Hitler Germany in 1939. The US has very little lessons to take from China, first of there is not a statistic in China that tells any truth no more than there was in the old Soviet Union. The only thing we can learn from China is to stop being naive and act against an enemy as they act against us. Chinas rise has come through massive technology transfers and theft no nation that is a complete success needs to use that much continuous theft to float along.We actually should never have abandoned the cold war mentality, we need to put up Radio Free China and start educating the Chinese against their leaders wishes on the realities of the rest of the world, not cater to a regime that would do away with us if they could.
