My First Million · Ray Dalio: The principles that made me a billionaire · 17 Jul 2026 podcast

You want to be successful?

Here's the mantra for investing.

I got my pen.

The most fundamental question is how do I have the upside without having the downside?

That approach was the basis of Bridgewater going from having to borrow $4,000 from my dad to the largest hedge fund, most successful hedge fund in the world.

I created personality tests.

I gave it to Elon Musk.

I gave it to Bill Gates.

I gave it to Rick Hastings.

Maybe I should probably not tell stories, but I don't know.

What's the top?

There's no correlation between the level of happiness in your life and the amount of money that you make.

So you have to have a purpose.

What do you want to do with the money that is so important?

You better answer that question.

So I started Bridgewater in 1975, and...

In 1981 and 82, interest rates went up.

The emerging countries had a lot of debt.

And I calculated that those countries were not going to be able to pay their debts.

And they were going to have big debt crisis.
