Ray Dalio and the economic machine

I am well aware that most if not all of you have seen this video. Coming into a new year whether you are actively working on wall street or a college student in hopes of working there can apply the 3 principles that really hit home with me.

1) Don't let debt increase higher than income.
2) Don't let income increase higher than productivity.
3) Do everything you can to increase productivity.

I notice allot on this site that people have net worth goals/aspirations. I too have been guilty of this. What we all should focus on this year is increasing our productivity. The more productive we are on the job or at school the more successful and rich we will be in the end.
