IF YOU DON'T OWN GOLD, YOU KNOW NEITHER HISTORY NOR ECONOMICS

Ray Dalio argues that gold is not just a shiny metal but a centuries-old store of value that has survived wars, recessions, and collapsing currencies.

Unlike paper money that governments can print endlessly, gold has limited supply, which is why investors often treat it as protection against inflation and economic uncertainty.

Dalio believes every balanced portfolio should include some gold because it acts as financial insurance when markets become unstable or trust in currencies fades.

His message is simple, understanding the role of gold means understanding how real wealth has been preserved throughout history.
