Don’t you mean that Trump inherited 200 million?
You don’t think that 10 billion is more than 200 million?
And no, it would not have done better in municipal bonds.
Not sure I get what you are saying.
If Trump doesn't produce, I married a Filipina .. I'll be ex-patted in a matter of hours
But if he does ... I'll be grateful I didn't fold on him
That's MY logic and plan.
Well, yeah. He has very little more than he inherited.
He played around with it for years, spent as much as he made ... you know ... I don’t need all those wives but I like them .. I don’t need an 80 ft living room but I like it.
So yeah, he would have done better just letting it draw interest.
She withdrew because she was afraid of the man I’m afraid of.
You should be afraid of him too.
noooooo....he would not have.
Maybe you would be happy filing your nails while living off interest but most people want to do something with their lives.
the rule of 72 - your money doubles every 7.2 years at 10%
If he inherited 200 million at age 30 (and I don’t know how old he was when he got it) then he had 5.5 doubles to now which would give him less than 5 billion - he has twice that and the assets he has are appreciating every day. He would also have had to live on none of that 200 million the entire time. Who wants to spend their life like that?
Plus he can take depreciation and you mentioned municipal bonds, what municipal bonds pay 10% that are stable? Right now you’re lucky to get ANY interest.
Trump went to Wharton...I think he knows a thing or two about accumulating assets.
Says the guy from his desk at Allstate Insurance. LOL!
Huh? Don't even know what you're talking about.
Ah, judging Trump to not be righteous? Yea, I’m comfortable standing in front of my maker and explaining that one. I hope that you are next in line, so I can hear you explain why you thought Trump was a Christian model of righteousness and piety. Or is that “f’ing piety”?
The Trumpkins dont care about his policies, his serial adultery, his scams, or any of it. Its a cult of personality every bit as hardened and dangerous as the 0bama cult of personality.
^ This. I’m still voting for him if Cruz isn’t the nominee. If there is going to be chaos, it’s going to be our chaos this time.
I do not judge anything about Donald Trump’s relationship with Elohim. I am observing what has been happening to him as the media and establishment try to destroy him. No weapon formed against him has prospered.
If you read you Bible you will find that only one person, Jesus Christ, was a “Christian model of righteousness and piety.” Everyone else is flawed.
If you are a believer, then you will be rewarded based on you works here on earth, because your sins have been forgiven. If you are not a believer then you will be in line for the Great White Throne Judgement. Not a happy place to be.
Yea, nothing worked against Obama either and Hillary’s many felonies have never caught up to her. Indeed, her husband Bill assaulted women and nothing ever came of it.
Do you also ascribe God’s protection to them?
I don’t think I’m a prophet or capable of applying every Old Testament prophesy to a current event.
I also believe in free will, and don’t think God creates immoral people just to plug in pieces of the puzzle.
If you are convinced that Trump is sent by God to be our savior, I do believe you are in for some massive dissapointment.
I do not think that Donald Trump is our savior. Only Jesus Christ the only begotten Son of the Father is our Savior. I think Donald Trump is a Judge like Samson. If the type holds true he will bring the Temple of Dagon down on the Philistines.
Have you ever studied Statistical Thermodynamics? Each individual molecule in a gas has the “free will” to go anywhere it wants, but the overall gas behaves in a prescribed way. Similarly, each individual person has free will to accept or reject the Word of YHWH, but at the same time the overall course of human history will follow YHWH’s Plan as revealled in His Word.
Elohim did not create evil people. He created Adam and Eve with free will, and they chose to eat from the tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. So their spirit died and they were separated from communion with Elohim. At the same time YHWH established a redemption plan for all of mankind who would believe in Him and his Word. Two thousand years ago, the Word became flesh and dwelt among us. The Jewish leaders of the day rejected Jesus and had Him crucifed, but that was part of the Father’s Plan for His Son to take on the sins of all mankind, past, present and future. When Jesus rose from the dead, he redeemed the world from Adam’s sin. All one has to do is confess with your mouth that Jesus Christ is Lord, and believe in you heart that He was raised from the dead, and one will be saved.
The Word says that Jesus will come back to establish an 1000 year period where the Devil will be confined so that the only source of sin will be the sin nature of the people who will live through the Great Tribulation. At the end of the Millenial Kingdom, the Devil is loosed and a significant portion of the people follow him into perdition. Then the dead are raised and judged with all non- believers being sent to the Eternal Lake of Fire. And the believers move on to the New Heavens and the New Earth.
That is what is going to happen and it is going to happen soon. The Great Sign in the Heavens described in Revelation 12:1-2 will occur on or about September 23-24, 2017. It is a star and planet formation that has not happened in the past 8000 years nor will happen in the next 2000 years.
I am typing this one my iPhone, but I can get the they Scriptural references for all of this. However it is best to ask the Holy Spirit to guide you through the Word so you can understand it yourself.
As much as I believe in God’s word, I don’t think anyone knows the appointed hour, and history is full of those who thought they had it figured out.
The Holy Spirit hasn’t moved me to vote Trump.
1 Thessalonians 5
1 But concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I should write to you.
2 For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night.
3 For when they say, “Peace and safety!” then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape.
4 But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief.
5 You are all sons of light and sons of the day. We are not of the night nor of darkness.
6 Therefore let us not sleep, as others do, but let us watch and be sober.
7 For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk are drunk at night.
8 But let us who are of the day be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet the hope of salvation.
9 For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,
10 who died for us, that whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with Him.
11 Therefore bcomfort each other and edify one another, just as you also are doing.

Cruz us unlike any of the other Senators in his actions- he shakes them up out of their complacency and corruption. Of course he has the same benefits- that is irrelevant.
