The stock market ticker may say something about the economy but is silent about its effects on human well-being or the environment. Read Columbia’s Katharina Pistor on the dangers of price-tag policymaking in F&D magazine. https://t.co/0HwwYA2b5g
My free app is now available in even more countries. You can now find Principles in Action in the US, UK, Germany, Spain, India, Canada, Netherlands, France, Italy, Romania, Croatia, UAE, Türkiye, Jordan and Saudi Arabia. I know you will love it because virtually everyone else who has seen it loves it (It has an average rating of 4.9 out of 5 in the Apple App Store). It’s free so there is no cost to checking it out.
I’m at a stage in my life where I want to pass along what I’ve learned to help others, so I'm sharing the principles that I believe led to whatever success I and Bridgewater have had—and that I also believe can make anyone and any company successful. That's why I wrote my book Principles: Life and Work which has sold over 5 million copies. Because so many people told me that it had a huge impact on their lives and that they wished they could have seen the principles applied in real-life situations, I put out this Principles in Action app. In addition to the videos of real situations with real people living by these principles, it has everything I’ve done in an easy-to-use format that is always up to date, including the complete text of my book Principles: Life & Work and the animated videos I’ve created. It also has a Coach feature, which will direct you to the most appropriate principles for the situations you face, and a tool for writing down and recording your own principles.
I hope you find it helpful. https://t.co/PZgrSt0TPx

Yesterday I dropped over $500 on education products so I can learn a new skill in 2024 to grow my income.
While others view everything as an expense.
I view most things as investments.
Because if I learn one skill to create an extra $500/month I’ll get a serious ROI.
Invest in yourself.
You’re the only one holding yourself back.
