Autocast#1: Principles for Autistics to avoid being in a warzone| Principles for Dealing with the Changing World Order by Ray Dalio | book reading and discussion |
Today we examine part of Ray Dalio's book: Principles for dealing with the Changing World Order: Why Nations Succeed and Fail. We look at his take on US-China relations, touch on the principles he recommends for dealing with the increased risk of conflict between these countries and discuss how an autistic might apply those principles. He recommends diversification, specifically, having 3 unrelated places (countries) to go should you find your own situation intolerable. (Feel free to skip straight to 01:25:47 for the practical principles Ray recommends).Coming episodes will share stories of fellow autistics who have moved countries, so other autistics may draw courage from their stories and get an idea of what it is like.For those who don’t know, Ray Dalio has been a global macro investor for more than 50 years.
