ok. From the article: “Donald Trump inherited money and ran a family business: never in his life did he have to persuade shareholders”
From a simple google search, as well as common knowledge, “Donald Trump’s self-described net worth was $200 million in 1982.” His father was worth 200 to 300 million at his death. Trump was not an only child. He did not inherit all that
Maybe I don’t “really know economics”, but 9 billion is more that 200
Million by a lot. I keep reading that Trump inherited his money
From wiki: “Mobile-friendly - The will of Trump’s father, who died in 1999, divided an estate estimated at $250 –$300 million equally among his four children...” In 1999
His father died at 93 years old. Trump was 53 years old when his father died. Trump created a lot of business and property in NY in the early 80’s twenty years before his father died. It has nothing to do with his father’s wealth
Trump went to Wharton. It’s not like the way BO or even W went to school, not Ted Kennedy, either, and that is an ugly story itself. Wharton is a competitive business school. I know guys that got through it. This journalist should do a little research. Just ninth grade level
This is so idiotic
200 million in 1999 to 9 billion in 15 years?
My eyes hurt with this
People are so stupid
Get a decent argument going. Or just get used to it. Ted Cruz is great. But no one can beat Hillary who is not willing able and ready to do sandlot politics at all times with her, congress, the edit, the donors and win. And do it in a winning, better way than they do
Read this article. It is completely idiotic and illogical. That is what is running our country. Cruz won’t get ahead of tgat

I didn’t know any of that, other than Trump didn’t squander what he inherited but worked hard and made it grow.
Thanks for the specifics.
According to the 2015 Billionaires List here, Trump is worth $3.9 billion. Still plenty.
