A review by maxstone98
The Fund: Ray Dalio, Bridgewater Associates, and the Unraveling of a Wall Street Legend by Rob Copeland
2.0
Not worth reading.
The excerpt in The NY Times gives an impression of some of it (fairly inaccurate seeming) being about the investing but it is not, there is almost exactly zero on that topic.
Basically it is 300 pages of : Ray Dalio is a bad person and mean and a hypocrite (because he won’t accept negative feedback himself). With a side dose of: Greg Jensen is slimy.
Obvious who the sources are since they are portrayed very positively. No sense that this is in any way a balanced book. I don’t particularly want to defend Bridgewater or dalio or jensen (in fact I would actively not like to do so and don’t mean for this short book review to do so); I have no idea of the facts. But I also don’t think this book seems like a good place to go to get any facts.
