Former President Donald Trump’s net worth has been hovering around $2.5 billion since last year, according to Forbes’ estimate, down from an estimated $4.5 billion when he announced his candidacy in 2015.
Trump left office in January and has since set up the “Office of the Former President,” but he has not yet announced a new business venture.
Trump was No. 121 on Forbes’ list of wealthiest Americans when he began his 2016 presidential campaign.
Forbes also found that Trump’s net worth declined in 2020 after hitting $3.1 billion in 2019, as the coronavirus pandemic and subsequent economic recession wreaked havoc on the industries in which he holds his biggest assets. Several entities cut ties with the Trump Organization in the aftermath of the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.
Trump’s financial disclosure form filed shortly before he left office showed that his Florida resort Mar-a-Lago was one of only a few of his businesses that saw income increase in 2020 amid the pandemic.
Revenue increased by roughly 13% from $21.4 million to $24.2 million. Mar-a-Lago has made income upwards of $30 million in years past.
Meanwhile, the Trump Organization’s revenue declined roughly 38% overall compared to 2019, falling to $278 million, according to The New York Times.
Trump made $400,000 per year as president and donated his presidential salary each quarter.
FOX Business’ inquiry to the Trump Organization was not returned at the time of publication.

Breaks my heart, even more 😢💔
That poor man. So he basically paid a couple of billion dollars to be publicly insulted, day in and day out, lied about, plotted against and demonized. That is NOT a good deal. That is the art of sacrifice.
Trump has sacrificed so much for us. I can’t imagine how frustrating it is for him. And the Democrats actually wanted to investigate him for making money during his term? But of course they’re not going to look at Biden or any of themselves.
The hypocrisy is ridiculous.
He’s the only person that lost money while in office.
I hope that his new business venture is about establishing technology platforms that allow conservatives to communicate without being taken down. Trump has a unique position to get this done.
