Billionaire hedge fund manager Ray Dalio got into a heated debate with Joe Kernen this morning — because Ray, apparently, doesn’t think capitalism is giving everyone a fair fucking shake. Good olde Ray wants everyone to have the same opportunities that he enjoyed — such as graduating Harvard Business School and also marrying into the fucking Vanderbilt family.
You can throw all of the money in the world at people — it won’t change a single fucking thing. Don’t believe me — have a look at the school districts that enjoy overzealous funding and see if it made a dent. Ray got to where he is today because of who he is — his genetic make up. Getting into Harvard probably wasn’t by happenstance and marrying Gertrude Vanderbilt’s daughter probably didn’t hurt his prospects when he launched his fucking hedge fund back in the 1970s either.
Capitalism is a fucked up form of economy — but it’s the best we’ve got. Transferring money from one place to the next only causes friction and will never move the needle. Things are fucked now for a variety of reasons — most of which is a subtle trickle of eugenics coming out of our beloved Ivy League schools, and other top tier Universities.
But that’s a topic for another day.
What’s important to take away from this debate with “Hair Piece” Kernen is that Dalio is shamefully and unapologetically weak and also a hard core beta male — with zero solutions, only complaints and self-hatred.
FUCK OFF RAY DALIO.
Ciao.
UPDATE: Having a moment to relax and chill, I did a little legwork and learned Ray’s wife is an immigrant from Spain and is likely a distant relative to House Vanderbilt. No idea, really — don’t fucking care too.
