I’m 51. Yesterday my 12 year relationship came to an end because I decided I couldn’t keep focusing on a one sided relationship. I finally got to the root of our issues and she was turned off by me as I’ve become bitter at work and I’m always negative. She’s 💯 correct. I went from positive and enjoyed playing rugby to being miserable and on the couch. I hate my stalled career and was trying to keep her through acts of service when I knew she had no desire for me any more. The good news is I’ve picked myself up after much worse places in my life and will go back to the gym and a regiment from my military days and start studying more to kick start my curiosity again and travel solo to where I want to go. I never got the kids and happy marriage I always wanted but have accepted that life can still be good when a person decides they want to change their mindset. Never give up on life. Fight for your happiness to the very end.

Im 43. I have no kids or gfriend. I have a good relationship with my Mum. I set myself goals all the time to give my life purpose. I try to help people where I can, without it hindering my own happiness. I have managed to start loving being alone and spend a lot of time running or hiking in the mountains alone. Its very liberating and highly addictive. I used to chase girls and spend all my money on them, but now its just all on me. Lifes so much less complicated this way. I should also add that I am a big believer in quality of life. Maintaining good mental and physical health greatly enhances this, with deep sleep (when your body repairs itself) being critical to successful health. Having a decent diet with minimal alcohol and lots of water also greatly helps too.

I'm turning 49 soon. I was sick my whole life, until about 3 years ago. Managed to have two beautiful kids despite the constant hell, it made it worth the struggle. Now I have almost nothing, but yet I am the richest man alive, living a simple life in a cabin in the woods, content with the present, which is all anybody actually has. Philosophy, breathing techniques, psilocybin, and getting back up every time you fall, that's one answer for some, it was for me. I hope to help others in my remaining years, because it makes me happy✌️💚🖖

I’m 53 and I am totally in that not enough hours in the day to get things done. Had kids a little later in life so we dealing with the early teenage years, we have a special needs kiddo (mental health) so that involves therapy time, social service’s time to name a few. Add this to all the other day to day normal stuff like holding jobs down, running a household, 2 dogs to walk, feed etc and before I know it I’m done for the day. I never thought of meditation so I’ll give that a try. Thank you for the advice.

I'm 54 my tips are #1 health maintain it as much as possible #2 share your life via a spouse, friends, charity don't fade away with nobody to remember you.

Im turning 50 next year n i wud lk to tell young ppl out there it does get better.. ur life will improve.. its just a phase.. not everyone move at the same pace.. just one little step at a time n keep pushing forward.. The key is not to give up

Rarely I have seen an accomplished individual, giving free life lessons and advice at the scale you are. Thank you Ray!!

Thank you for providing guidance in your books and social media. I am in my 40’s feel totally different challenges than my early years with in-laws, parents, kids and work.

Thanks Ray for the advice 🙏

Thank you Ray.

Thank you so much Ray. I’m turning 39 and this video has helped confirm a decision I made today

My life start from zero again at 49 after my mom and brother have been scammed their whole life savings. I hate them so much, life is tough, but luckily I have a gifted Mensa daughter giving me mental support. Now i have found a new job, hopefully things will get better after 50!

middle life is like middle management: pressure from all sides. definitely feeling this. have to learn how to triage and outsource many things as you can

Ray more concretely advise-1-Should you help your children whit money? 2-Are you happy whit your life? 3-Pay your debts and dont mess whit banks! 4-Shold you enjoy life or keep woking hard? What about adictions in life- sugar, cigaretes or alkohol or the big one-loans?

My advice for those in their 40s and 50s is to just stay physically active if you want to look good as you age. the less physically active you stay, the fastest you age and your flesh and muscles become flabby (hanging down). Go out there and enjoy the outdoors. staying indoors the majority of your time doesn't do any good at all and it just leads to a state of depression and laziness.

Thank you for sharing!❤❤❤❤❤

Great comments Ray, Thanks and have a nice week.

Thank you Ray

These are some good points, and practices to implement.

That little little Laugh of Uncle g in between while explaining the Midlife Crisis...My father does it and I get to know the SCARY PART is yet to come😂😂😂😂😂

Leverage got it, gonna 50x long my savings on binance tomorrow

Great, Thank you

I'm currently 90 but I've figured out how to reverse myself to mid-40s, so this info is a lifesaver

Ray is just an angel.. such a wise guy. Weather or not he knlws it, he is one of my mentors. He is so sensible, and truthful, and I love to learn from his experience...

Ray is brilliant.

Love this advice

Thank you very much Ray I appreciate your advice

I appreciate this advice

Right on! Ty❤

I am 57 and put Lord Jesus Christ first and central in my life. No any materialism can give me so much happiness and joy

This guy is a great speaker! Can fill two and a half minutes talking without saying anything

Thank you 🙏

Thank you.

Always golden tips! things that we know, but need reminders :)

God has blessed me so much. Name of Adi Da

Ray you are my hero. You teach me so much. But I must say you make the mistake most American men make. They talk like there is no difference between men and women. But this difference is huge, men and women deal with very different problems in each phase of their life. Women bloom in their teens and twenties . Men dominate in their 30s and 40s etc.

A very uniquely spectacular human being.

You are a good mentor. Thank you.

thank you my mentor,thank you so much.your reward is great in your other phase of life.

Please remind me to watch this in 12 years, thanks!

I'm in my mid 20s but I'm here for listening for the present & future

Do a book signing please Ray1 (day 1)

Thank you! 🙏

…word up dawg!

🙏👍thank you for the insight Mr.Dalio. Yes the power of leverage and intense introspection.❤😊

The goat 🐐

i’m in my 30s and i need to hear something to get me going. after my twenties going bust, i’m at a loss.

I would suggest reading Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle and building a relationship with our higher power Jehovah God. Also build good friendships and become a forgiving emotionally intelligent person. Eating well, working out and working on staying away from negative people. At 31 Im such a happier person since doing those things.

Thank you for care about those in 40s.

Mathematicians and economists will tell you: happiness is U-shaped. As a general rule, people are happy when they're young, becoming increasingly unhappy into middle-age, and then once through middle-age, start getting happier again. Apparently this phenomenon is so widespread, it doesn't just apply to humans - chimpanzees experience the same 'dip' in happiness in mid-life.

I am 53 years old , and just starting over with nothing . Because of a terrible marriage , I had a wife wich I still love but financially it was a nightmare. Now with no skill I am working a normal warehouse job . Any advice wi be appreciated

Mr Dalio. You are talking about leverage. In financially what is your rule of thumb? 20/80; 30/70: 40/60 So what is a good leverage which benefits you and lowers your risks. How you are making these decisions? What are your principles? Can you talk about this in one of your videos?

TLDR; -Meditate -"Get leverage" to get more done in the time you have

good advice for all ages 💯

I am inventing a new meditational technique. It is a combination of technique that are out there. I would like you to try it out and let me know if you notices any changes. It is 12 mins long The first 3 minutes: You would listen to your internal thoughts with compassion, non judgmental non critical, like you are listening to your friend talking to you. but don’t get involved with your thoughts and idea. You are listening only. The second 3 minutes. Bring a feeling you have and wish to have for the day. For example calmness, peaceful. Bring that thought up and watch your feeling come and goes. Try to have that feeling come up in your mind and imaging how that would feel. The last 3 minutes. Place your thoughts on your breath coming in and out. Any thoughts come up thanks it and let it goes and refocus on your breath. All up 12 mins do this. Give one week and see how it goes. I am trying all these variation of meditation and it really helps

Meditate on that

My biggest takeaway, Ray Dalio is a billionaire. He could have done anything with that 30 minutes to think about and execute this KZfaq clip. But he chose to help others. Has me reflecting how can I help others.

Max was here

What is this ‘leverage’ he’s referring to and how does it work?

The phrase 'life begins at 40' is often misinterpreted as being the time for freedom and fun, when in actual fact, it is the time when the real slog begins and you are no longer coasting through life.

In 2024,don't set new year financial goals without consulting a financial adviser.there expertise ensure a solid plan for success.Building wealth involves developing good habits like regular putting money away in intervals for solid investments.

At 43, I have a wonderful wife, wonderful children, great career, lovely house, good exercise regimen. I'm getting POUNDED. But it's worth it.

I think when you reach 50s having a loving family and earning enough that don't need to skim the savings for the rising living cost, then take that as a win.

I was at a place where I spent all my money on liquor and women, and the rest of the money was wasted. I have now stopped wasting money

Buenas tardes Ray. Saludos cordiales de MÉXICO LINDO Y QUERIDO.🌄🐯🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽👍

Look up the autobiography Within Heaven's Gates by Rebecca Springer. Page 64.😇

Ray write them down,,keep the best discard the ones that are too difficult to explain,until you can word them better,but fo not give up trying to teach.

My advice: buckle up!

*Hallelujah!!!! The daily jesus devotional has been a huge part of my transformation, God is good 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻was owning a loan of $47,000 to the bank for my son's brain surgery (David), Now I'm no longer in debt after I invested $12,000 and got my payout of m $270,500 every months,God bless Chloe Linda Henderson🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸..*

Sometimes, I can't meditate. That's when I run until it's hard to breathe. And then my mind and emotions become clear. I know what I need to do and what I can let go of. I'm not afraid anymore. I have come to realize the importance of having faith in my choices. Thank you so much. 🙂‍↕️😌

Impeccable

Meditation? Like you did at the Taylor swift concert?

Hormones more powerful than drugs 😆

He's the only billionaire guru I can think of. Bezos is too busy with his new woman.

Make as much money as early as you can.

I’m 40 and I have it all figured out

Leverage?

I will give you best advice ever. Become free, look for a peace in life, create your own life, strive for the things you want, listen to your intuition and yourself not others, you know the best how to get that thing you want, stop listening to that nonsense from the internet.

Don’t chase money and fame but devote time to your family and appreciate this life if possible ….Ive found the spiritual life is the only sane life

You must be right because you are rich.

A bachelor doesn't suffer these issues.

My middle life is combined with war in Ukraine 😞

Telling people to start meditating in their 40s or 50s is not a epiphany. Lol There are so many different forms, levels, and reasons to meditate. Most who haven't done internal work by these ages can't even find a starting point or purpose to really meditate effectively.

It all sucks after 50. Kids are gone and your health sucks.

My youth was spent nearly on disability - But nobody has an easy life. Due to that I feel out of touch with any version of normal. But overall - our culture is weak and stupid. Strength is about remaining calm as possible at any age and circumstance

Free advice: FREE PALESTINE

recognize that you are not going to suddenly become rich, or famous, or popular if you aren't already.

It’s not an advice for the average Joe. We are stretched too thing. The unhappiness levels, aggressions, etc. are through the roof as a result. The need to make more and produce more for less has killed us.

I don't believe meditating is truly going to help anyone as our currency & Empire currently collpases. Peoples problems, the threats they are currently facing and will be facing in the future, is much bigger than the normal historical midlife issues in years past. I assume meditation wouldn't really do much for people in Weimar Germany, Venezuela or Zimbabwe, not really.

Asking people to meditate with a business background/view was kinda weird.

Dang... its going to get even harder than this?

Knowing Jesus is love, joy ,peace like none other. Eternal Life is in Him and none other John 17:3 And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent. John 3:3 Jesus answered and said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” Jeremiah 29:13 And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.

That was just a bunch of rambling word salad, people think because they made some $$ that all of a sudden they are Aristotle.

Yap, add divorce on top of everything that drains you 😂 Gosh, I just need millions of dollars and peace haha

.

I like Ray but like most of the wealthy that give advice, he only focuses on this life when it's short and ignores the next that is eternal. Read the Final Testament of Allah, His Qur'an and insha'Allah He will guide you to Islam. Those are the truly successful.

Stop spending money to impress other people. Get out of debt.

Meditate, your advice is to meditate..... I want my 2 minutes back....

Man, people are desperate for the guidance of a father figure

Why is this all just generic fluff. I guess it’s good if helps someone
