I enjoy listening to Henry Kravis. He's very calm and controlled, but also crystal clear.

Ray Dalio can sound a bit preachy, and he likes to push his principles, but he seems very passionate.

 

I would assume the most interesting people "on Wall Street " are people we have never heard of, people who have zero appetite whatsoever to be in the public's view.

 

I feel like having access to someone not famous certainly has better stories/more inspiring stories than those making the headlines.

So for me one of them would be an old MD, that used to prop trade EM debt since 1985 and now is investing in EM FI. He told crazy stories and was interesting to understand his approach to big moves in EM markets at the time vs now with a backward view.
