10 LESSONS I LEARNED ABOUT GLOBAL COLLAPSE AND NATIONAL DEBT - Inspired by the Concepts Behind How Countries Go Broke by Ray Dalio (Personal Reflection Book)

10 LESSONS I LEARNED ABOUT GLOBAL COLLAPSE AND NATIONAL DEBT - Inspired by the Concepts Behind How Countries Go Broke by Ray Dalio (Personal Reflection Book) I remember seeing my parents sit at the kitchen table in silence in 2008. The news buzzed in the background, a financial crisis rippling across the world, as my father slowly folded the paper in half. He didn’t say much. He rarely did. But I recall the heaviness in his eyes. It was the first time I felt the invisible weight of something called “national debt.” I was too young then to understand what that meant, or how it could ripple through our living room, our savings, and eventually, our sense of safety. Years later, I would stumble upon Ray Dalio’s frameworks—not by accident, but through curiosity that had fermented over time. His writing wasn’t just economic theory. It was narrative. It was structure. It was a blueprint for understanding something most people don’t want to think about until it’s too late: the collapse of systems we trust. Dalio speaks in cycles. He draws graphs, but he also tells stories. Empires rise. Currencies inflate. Governments overspend. People panic. Then the whole thing resets. Not unlike the seasons, but with more human suffering and fewer guarantees of spring. Grab a copy of this book now!
