| The secret to longevity is having meaningful work and meaningful relationships. I’ve found that both are required to sustain the energy to keep operating at a high level. That’s because you need a genuine, shared passion to make what you're doing as great as it can be. And you need to pursue that work with people you genuinely care about and who genuinely care about you. If you have those two things working in tandem, you have the basis for a life of continuous evolution, which is ultimately what longevity is all about. #longevity #raydalio #principles |

Ray Dalio’s Point of View on Wealth Taxes
2026-01-28
The income and wealth gap in the US are the highest they’ve been in almost 100 years. It’s something that need to be addressed before it creates even more extreme internal conflicts.
However, I worry about the practical impacts of wealth taxes on the economic system. And that’s because there’s a difference between wealth and money.
It’s all about the mechanics. Bubbles burst when there’s a need for money to generate cash flow. Wealth taxes would create a situation where people who are wealthy on paper need to sell assets to cover their liabilities. And that can quickly create a dynamic that leads to a broader issue.
It’s something to watch in the coming years.

The Most Important Lesson: Humility
2025-12-01
In 1979, I was so broke that I had to borrow $4,000 from my Dad to help take care of my family.
I had calculated that American banks had lent much more money to foreign countries than they would be able to pay back, and anticipated an imminent debt crisis.
But I couldn’t have been more wrong. I didn’t fully understand the impacts of quantitative easing, and so I lost money for myself and I lost money for my clients.
Looking back, it was the most painful experience I could imagine — but it was also the best thing that ever happened to me, because it taught me humility.
