Ray Dalio's Darkest Day After His Biggest Win

from Sleepy Stock Market · host Sleepy Stock Market

Ray Dalio predicted the 1987 Black Monday crash — and Bridgewater made $100 million in a single day. But Dalio's personal finances were so overextended that he had to call his father, Marino, and borrow $4 million just to survive. He fired every employee except one, rebuilt from near zero, and went on to manage $150 billion by 2013. The same man who called the biggest one-day market crash in history couldn't pay his own bills the morning after.🎧 Part of the Sleepy Stock Market series — financial history told as documentary audio.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━SLEEPY STOCK MARKETFall asleep to the greatest stories in financial history.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━#RayDalio #Bridgewater #BlackMonday #HedgeFund #WallStreet #FinanceHistory #Investing #StockMarketCrash
