Spending $26.95 to pick Ray Dalio’s brain for over 16 hours listening to the audiobook appears fantastic value to me. The thought crossed my mind to offer Mr. Dalio a charity donation in his name if he gave me the opportunity to make it a two-way conversation over lunch. But that wouldn’t have been consistent with his (or my) Principles. Instead, I’m offering my radically truthful review for $0. The challenge for Mr. Dalio is whether reading this review will be time well spent. Ray, you do not know my ‘believability’ – and that is a key deficiency in your principles you might want to address, especially when applied to the next phase in your life. (Axel Merk)
It is hard to review Principles by Ray Dalio. At times, the book is exceptional and it is definitively a wonderful insight in the mind of Ray Dalio. Other times, it felt repetitive, arrogant, and simplistic. This, while reading the book, let my mood/opinion shift constantly from "this is the best book ever" to "this is a piece of crap." Eventually, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone but for anyone interested, it is probably worth the read. (Bas Vodde)
