In a world where the only constant is change, Ray Dalio, the sage of Bridgewater Associates, offered a tidbit of wisdom on the Master Investor podcast. He suggested, with the gravitas of a man who knows the value of a good umbrella, that a well-heeled portfolio might consider sheltering 15% of its assets under the golden canopy or the digital skies of Bitcoin. These, he opines, serve as sturdy bulwarks against the relentless tide of monetary debasement.

While Dalio, ever the traditionalist, leans towards the lustrous allure of gold, he concedes that Bitcoin, the prodigal son of the crypto world, has earned its place at the table. “Even if you’re as clueless as a chicken in a wind tunnel about the market’s direction,” Dalio mused, “it’s prudent to hold assets that can weather the storm of government money printing and the ever-expanding national debt.”
“If you’re neutral and wish to optimize your return-to-risk ratio,” Dalio elaborated, “a 15% allocation to gold or Bitcoin is the way to go. It’s like having a life jacket in a sea of fiscal uncertainty.”
Dalio, a vocal critic of America’s fiscal profligacy, warns that the country’s growing debt and lax monetary policies are akin to a slow-motion train wreck, steadily eroding the value of traditional currencies. While he keeps his personal investment secrets as closely guarded as state secrets, he admits to owning both gold and Bitcoin—though he’s a bit more sparing with the digital stuff.
His advice comes at a time when inflationary fears and central bank antics are driving more investors to seek solace in hard assets. Bitcoin, with its finite supply, and gold, with its storied history as a safe haven, offer a compelling alternative for those skeptical of the whims of fiat currencies. After all, why trust a currency that can be printed at will when you can hold something that can’t? 🤔💰
