This is so much better (read: weirder) than you could've ever imagined. You KNOW there will be a movie. There's a measure of surrealism reading this in the same year as, “Trust” by Hernan Diaz.
It was a really intriguing read. I actually had no idea who Ray Dalio was until I started this book. It sent me down an interesting rabbit hole. It's unbelievable. I was blown away with this book. After I did some deep diving I found this book to be well researched and it's interesting to see how Ray Dalio has principles he doesn't live by. It was a totally easy read and the writing was great!
4 stars! Best non-fiction I have read in a very long time.
Thank you @stmartinspress for my gifted copy
Loved it. I love books like this that give a glimpse into how it actually is vs the marketing team's paid spin of a person or company.
Was reading this book as the same time as “The House of Government Book” by Yuri Slezkine, which is about the Bolsheviks and the Russian revolution (and interprets them as a apocalyptic religious millennial movement). I was surprised at the number of parallels between the story of Bridgewater and the Bolshevik leadership of the USSR, even before the part of the book where Ray Dalio established a Politburo within Bridgewater.
