About this listen

 Ray Dalio, the legendary investor and international bestselling author of Principles - whose books have sold more than five million copies worldwide - shares his unique template for how debt crises work and principles for dealing with them well. This template allowed his firm, Bridgewater Associates, to antic­ipate 2008’s events and navigate them well while others struggled badly.

As he explained in his international best­seller Principles, Ray Dalio believes that almost everything happens over and over again through time, so that by studying patterns one can understand the cause-effect relationships behind events and develop principles for dealing with them well. In this three-part research series, he does just that for big debt crises and shares his template in the hopes of reducing the chances of big debt crises hap­pening and helping them be better managed in the future.

The template comes in three parts:
1. The Archetypal Big Debt Cycle (which explains the template)
2. Three Detailed Cases (which examines in depth the 2008 financial crisis, the 1930s Great Depression and the 1920s infla­tionary depression of Germany’s Weimar Republic)
3. Compendium of 48 Cases (which is a compendium of charts and brief descriptions of the worst debt crises of the last 100 years)

Whether you’re an investor, a policy maker, or are simply interested in debt, this unconventional perspective from one of the few people who navigated the crisis successfully, Principles for Navigating Big Debt Crises will help you understand the economy and markets in revealing new ways.

I really liked the information that is very useful and will help tremendously in the future of finance and social living.

Unfortunately, I am disappointed of the performance of the reader. Very monotonous. Boring. The layout of the information does not help either. On the other hand I understand this is more of a textbook than a book so it is kind of hard to transfer these terms to a layman such as me in easy manner.

Helpfully but boring

Managed to make an interesting topic unspeakably dull. The case studies were about as blandly written as I can imagine would be possible.

Disappointing, boring.
