Maybe he should have put his money in stocks instead.
By the measure of success he holds most dear — wealth — Donald Trump has done well. Since 1987, when the real estate mogul published his best-seller “Trump: The Art of the Deal,” his net worth has jumped 300 percent to $4 billion, according to figures from wealth-tracker Forbes magazine.
Turns out, though, there was an easier way for Trump to add to his wealth than all the deal-making and TV shows — and far more effective.

I love it when people who make 100K a year writing propaganda criticize people who own helicopters on their financial acumen. Just like the drunken idiots on Sunday who can tell you all about what the quarterback did or didn’t do, and what he should have or shouldn’t have done. Trump can walk into any store and buy pretty much anything he wants, and he can do that pretty much any time he wants. He is limited only by the amount of time it takes to actually walk into and out of stores, between being driven from store to store by a full-time employee who probably makes as much driving Donald Trump around as the writer makes writing propaganda. But some putz with a word processor is going to tell us just what a dumbass Trump is for not being richer. And the 100K a year guy is sooooo much better and smarter than the working stiffs who buy and read his drivel, and believe it.
When you’re worth more than $10 billion get back to me.
If that’s your attitude, why don’t we elect Gates, Buffet, or Soros president? They have more money than Trump.
Not a Trump fan but agree. Stock market peddlers are parasites. They move money around. They make and produce NOTHING.
Gates, Buffet and Soros haven’t put forth a plan that would help America. Trump has.
This article was critical of Trump’s investments implying he could have made more. Yet he has amassed $10 billion. The proof is in the pudding. For someone to be critical of Trump’s investment, they really need to be able to demonstrate they have actually done better.

I agree. This article is nothing more than emotional masturbation.
Not a big Trump guy but financially I am in no position to give him advice. But how well would Trump have done if he entered the market in 2000? Hint: Not too well.
