Businessman and reality television star Donald Trump will announce his 2016 intentions on Tuesday at a Manhattan skyscraper that bears his name. The Associated Press writes that if Trump, a Republican, decides to run for president, he would be required to release a personal financial disclosure that would reveal intimate details about his personal finances. And Trump is ready to do so. The AP said Trump will share details about his finances that reveal a net worth of $9 billion. The financial disclosure was thought to be the final obstacle blocking Trump from launching a 2016 campaign. Trump’s announcement is scheduled for 11 a.m.

Mr. and Mrs. 250k a speech shouldn’t talk.
Good Morning dp0622! Always happy to see your posts.
Fox News host Bill O’Reilly has an interview with Mr. Trump as a new Republican hopeful, or whatever it is that he has become. See it Tuesday night at 8 p.m. ET.
WOW that is a fight between two giant ego’s! Should be fun.
Do you actually believe the $9 billion number? We will never see paperwork to back that up.
:) Good morning back at ya!
Never will.
Yep. The left and those envious of a successful man are doing all they can to complain.
He has way too much baggage. Online cat fights, that crazy apprentice show, pictures taken with pantsuit, donations to the democratic party. saying once he felt like a democrat.
He would have made a descent NY city mayor instead of the nitwit we have. But not president.
Another scam.
Much as I like Trump, it’s another hustle...
Is’nt it a requirement that candidates for president file a declaration of their financial assets? Trump could get in legal trouble if he falsifies his filing.
He’s never going to file. He’ll drop out before that. But he’s has four months to chum the waters for Hillary.
“The real number is $10 billion,” Trump told Bloomberg at a June 3 meeting in his Fifth Avenue office, leaning over his paper-strewn desk. Or is it $8.7 billion, as stated in a document Trump published in conjunction with his announcement? Even at the lower figure, that would make him the 54th richest person in the U.S., according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.
A billion here; a billion there. The fact that estimates of Trump’s fortune can vary that widely underscores how hard it is to determine just how much he’s worth. His own assessment for the Trump brand name, which is stamped on hotels, neckwear, cologne and bottled water and allows him to collect licensing fees, is in the billions. Trump is bullish on Trump futures.”

We’ll see. Yes, he has acted strange on TV at times. The man is not out of it by any means. I still like Walker. We have a long time to go. I like Kasich also as I recall what he did back in the late 90’s in DC with the budget. We shall see.
Who know how severely leveraged all that is. $300 million in liquid. I bet his true net worth is less than $1 billion.
Since Trump’s assets are in buildings and name brands, it is constantly variable. For example any real property can be assessed at one value, but unless there is a buyer willing to pay that exact price, it is just a guesstimate.
Even Trump does not know what his net worth is from day to day. However having some familiarity with his golf resort properties, It has to be very large. Trump has developed the finest golf resorts in the world.
