Forbes – I spend nine years at Bridgewater Associates in an executive role working closely with Ray Dalio.\u00a0 As a result whenever I meet fellow entrepreneurs at conferences, business meetings, or social events, they are curious to know\u00a0about Bridgewater Associates and Ray Dalio.\u00a0 I get very poignant questions that you see discussed all over social media and the press: What is it like to work at Bridgewater? Do you agree with Ray\u2019s book \u201cthe Principles?\u201d and on and on.<\/p>\n
The best way to answer these questions is by sharing\u00a0what I have learned from working with Ray. Nothing I write represents the official views of Bridgewater or of Ray Dalio. Other current and former Bridgewater employees probably have different views and interpretations. You can view Ray Dalio\u2019s interview on Bloomberg to hear his thoughts directly or can read the principles on the company\u2019s website.<\/p>\n
