"

This is one of those sensational and inaccurate tabloid books written to sell books to people who like gossip.

This is a book that has made a lot of headlines over the last few weeks and gotten some big pushback from Ray, who's a very pugnacious person.

It's full of pretty buzzy anecdotes, whether it's Dalio trying to set up a meeting with Putin, James Comey serving as a sort of in-house inquisitor and a thorough investigation of an incident and a urinal. It's really fun. It's a fun read.

This book, which Sarah Edmondson did not write, is about Ray Dalio's hedge fund called Bridgewater, and how he runs the organization like a cult. It highlights the similarities between Dalio's management style and NXIVM, noting the lack of branding and sex in Dalio's approach.

"

And I was like, holy shit, he's basically... he set up his own little cult and calls it a bridge fund... a bridge... calls it a hedge fund.

And he's just like... it's just a little game that he's playing every... all the textbook minus the branding and the sex, exactly the same as NXIVM.

I hope he doesn't sue me, this is from a book that I did not write called The Fund.

But a new biography of him from New York Times journalist Ron Copeland peels back the layers of a Wall Street icon and what it finds ain't pretty.

The fund, as the book is called, paints Dalio as building an ego maniacal cold of personality who focuses more on terrorizing his employees than actually returning capital to investors.

Bridgewater obviously is not and was not as the book describes it calling it another one of those sensational and inaccurate tabloid books written to sell books to people who like gossip.

Bridgewater is definitely not the best place to work and they will own up to that and they send you through the ringer and it's like you're either with us or you're against us where you're gonna come in.

So if you want to learn about probably the weirdest corporate culture anywhere uh pick up this book and also I I just learned that uh, it's been optioned for a movie as well for Amazon studio.
