I agree witbh the sentiment but Trump is hardly self made. I believe that he inherited about $40 mil.

I heard Trump inherited $1 million to $3 million and was already successful by the time his father died.

When Trump inherited millions, he already was worth millions. I’m not sure, but I think he inherited less than what he had at the time.

“Trump is hardly self made. I believe that he inherited about $40 mil.”

So, under your theory of “self-made men”, pretty much anyone who started with $40,000,000 could parlay that by a factor of 100 into $4.5 billion net worth?

Fred Trump died in 1999. Donald Trump was already a billionaire when his father left him $40m. Get informed or keep your ignorant yap shut.

Trump is from a family of five kids plus his Mother so Six then it was 40 million before NYState huge death tax of 55% and then the Federal govt death tax of ...

That nets down to not too much unless it was set up as a trust but still it’s 5 ways and there are still taxes .

Odd how 40 million get sliced up quickly .

Haven’t read through the thread yet but I hope others have corrected your false statement.

Trump turned that into several BILLION dollars. If it had been Beck, Obama, Hillary or the RNC they’d have spent the $40 mil and put themselves in debt instead.
