The Most Important Thing to Learn From the Man In Charge of $150 Billion - 1 views

Yahnie Miller on 03 Apr 14Investing Guide at Deep Blue Group Publications LLC - Many individuals and investors know of the richest men in finance like Warren Buffett, George Soros, and Carl Icahn, who have a combined fortune of more than $110 billion. But there is something everyone can learn from the man who runs a hedge fund with over $150 billion, and who is worth $14 billion himself. The man Ray Dalio sits atop Bridgewater Associates, which is the Connecticut hedge fund he founded in 1975. It is now the biggest fund in the world, and manages money for pensions, university endowments, and sovereign wealth funds for countries. In all likelihood, many readers unknowingly have had their finances in one way or another tied to Dalio at one point in their life. Yet unlike many of those in corporate finance, Dalio is a naturalist and a man who was once described as "Steve Jobs with a business school degree." He enjoys meditation, and seeks to tear down the standard walls of corporate culture, which often characterize firms in the financial industry, by employing a call for an open atmosphere.
