More quotes by Ray Dalio
Credit is a promise to deliver money. It will produce GDP but you'll create credit... So you reach a certain point that that you can't do that anymore... There are choices. And how do we best support, apportion the money? How much is going to be transferred?
Ray Dalio
The biggest mistake investors make is to believe that what happened in the recent past is likely to persist. They assume that something that was a good investment in the recent past is still a good investment. Typically, high past returns simply imply that an asset has become more expensive and is a poorer, not better, investment.
Ray Dalio
Look at what caused people to make a lot of money and you will see that usually it is in proportion to their production of what the society wanted.
Ray Dalio
I'd like to be clear that a number of people find me intolerable, and they don't hesitate to say so - which they and I cherish.
Ray Dalio
School typically doesn't prepare young people for real life - unless their lives are spent following instructions and pleasing others. In my opinion, that's why so many students who succeed in school fail in life.
Ray Dalio
I think the President of the United States must operate by rules. I think our judicial system must operate by the rules. You have to operate by the rules of the system, and if you don't, if you pull rank, then you lose all your credibility.
Ray Dalio
Nature is a machine. The family is a machine. The life cycle is like a machine.
Ray Dalio
I think if you look at the statistics and you deal with fake media - and fake media and distorted media is a continuum - the vast majority of the population says, I don't know what to believe. There are no checks and balances in quality control.
Ray Dalio
I don't think there is such a thing as the perfect system.
Ray Dalio
Forget about what the technology is. Just understand the motivation behind it.
Ray Dalio
It all comes down to interest rates. As an investor, all you're doing is putting up a lump-sump payment for a future cash flow.
Ray Dalio
Nature gave us pain as a messaging device to tell us that we are approaching, or that we have exceeded, our limits in some way.
Ray Dalio
When growth is slower than expected, stocks go down. When inflation is higher than expected, bonds go down. When inflation's lower than expected, bonds go up.
Ray Dalio
When there is pain, the animal instinct is 'fight or flight' (i.e., to either strike back or run away) - reflect instead. When you can calm yourself down, thinking about the dilemma that is causing you pain will bring you to a higher level and enlighten you, leading to progress.
Ray Dalio
By and large, life will give you what you deserve and it doesn't give a damn what you like. So it is up to you to take full responsibility to connect what you want with what you need to do to get it, and then to do those things.
Ray Dalio
There is slow growth, but it is positive slow growth. At the same time, ratios of debt-to-incomes go down. That's a beautiful deleveraging.
Ray Dalio
Each person assesses each other person's credibility on different dimensions, because people are strong and weak in different things.
Ray Dalio
There are two main drivers of asset class returns - inflation and growth.
Ray Dalio
Constantly probe the people who report to you, and encourage them to probe you.
Ray Dalio
If you have the power to see things through somebody else's eyes, it's like going from black and white to color or two dimensions to three dimensions.
