    1. Dalio doesn't have a higher return annually than the S+P 500 over time. In times of a crisis this allocation works well but to have a better end result, you'd do better being invested in an index fund.

    2. After a succession of payments from Alec Payden, it is ok to say that the individual is legitimate, I have no doubt going ahead with him, he even turned down my gift token and asked me to to give it to charity saying, “God has given him all that he needs, use him as a vessel and help those one need.

    3. Long term Treasuries? What do you do about duration risk? Interest rates are at all time lows, so what happens to long and intermediate term bonds when inflation kicks in, especially with all the money printing going on? So maybe you have a bond that cost you $100, but because of rising interest rates it's value drops to $80. Now you have a 20% loss! I wonder why the guy keeps saying cash is trash, unless he is using it to buy hard assets now? I'm not saying it's misdirection, but the statement seems odd.

    4. Sorry what… why the f* would anyone listen to Tony Robbins for financial advice?!
      Since when was this charlatan an investment advisor?

    5. My all weather portfolio: a safe with gold, pallets of chef boyardee, and enough ammunition to build a small village.

      Not a financial advisor just my recommendations.

    6. Who actually listens to a bottom-feeder like this who made his fortune fleecing people, with his brain-dead, unschooled, bullshit seminars?

    7. He wants to help the working man, so BUY his book.
      LOL!
      In those 8 minutes you could have scrolled though the asset allocations with weights/percentages but you preferred to 'salesman' the pitch for the book to us instead.

    8. This makes perfect sense for someone that is just a handful of yrs away from retirement that has built up a huge nest egg by investing in stocks throughout their youth. Not for someone in their 20s or 30s that is still contributing for growth.

    9. Fantastic insight, Ray Dalios proper version uses more complex leveraging this was just a simple version off the top of his head and blows all so called guaranteed annuities out of the window. A lot will say this is for later life. But combine this in another portfolio say 25 percent to run alongside your main equities heavy on fire 🔥 portfolio of indexed etfs and some undervalued stock along with a few growth stock. Next crash which is 1 roughly every 5 or so years. Cash it in and buy up a load of cheap beat down stock. Next bull run up skim off 25 percent, repeat the acceleration process.
