Welcome to Animal Spirits with Michael and Ben. There is an article I think from last week in Barons and the title is Ray Dalio says the next financial crisis

could be even worse than the last one and I read the post and maybe I missed it I

was perhaps reading too quickly,

but I didn't see anything in there

that reflected what the title suggested.

Did you read this piece?

I'm not gonna lie, I skimmed it,

but that's because I was so busy also skimming Dallio's new book, which I took him for the team here.

It's called a template for understanding big debt crises, and so that's why he was doing out in the news.

And by the way, isn't it kind of funny that even like one of the most well-known

Hedge Fund managers in the world has to go through this PR stuff and PIMP his book out there.

Wow you are really firing shots this is unlike you. Oh that was was a shot. No, I was just saying.

It's kind of funny, you'd think people would just kind of come to it and find it because of his name.
