Working at Bridgewater for Ray Dalio sounds like working for a company run by the Mad Hatter.

Fantastic read. I’d give it a higher rating but the author is a dick about people choosing to borrow the book from the library rather than buying it directly…

I'm always somewhat biased to like books about bad businessmen. To just uncover all of those weird quirks, oddities and crimes and to wonder how and why people stick beside them. None have been more odd to me than what is detailed here about Ray Dalio and his rules. The entire time I'm just confused as to why no one would stand up to him.
By the end, I know that money talks but I also was a little more skeptical about some of the stories detailed than I was at the beginning because it seemed as though there were so many of the same tales and there is also no reckoning. There is no ultimate bringing down that happens die to the scandals and so I'm somewhat disappointed. It seems though the story of Ray Dalio and Bridgewater isn't done yet.

The subject, Ray Dalio, is an arrogant jerk of no interest to me.

This convinced me that Ray Dalio is a narcissistic megalomanic who lives in an echo chamber, surrounded by yes men. He should probably run for president.
Bit repetitive. Could have benefitted from some editing.
