That was the amount of entire estate Subtract taxes and then divide between the five siblings. By the time his father died he already owned much of Manhattan including the land under the Empire State building he didn’t get there using his dad’s money

While in college he actually bought and flipped property in PA using borrowed money He graduated with enough in the bank to start the Manhattan acquisitions. This between studies and going home on weekends to help his dad maintain his properties Its called Work Ethic something German Families pass down through the generations So get off the silver spoon The greatest gift his father gave him was how to negotiate a deal

He did not “inherit” $200 Million from his Daddy, not that there is anything wrong with that unless you’re an envious Democrat who thinks Life isn’t fair and you think certain people are lucky enough to win Life’s Lottery.

Donald was in Business with his Father and ran the Company after he Retired. It is a Privately Owned Family Business and Donald had been there from the start helping his Father build it.

One thing about street fighters, they usually start out Poor and work hard to improve their lives and the lives of their Families.

My Dad did, and we were from Brooklyn and living in abject Poverty when I was Born.

The same goes for my Mother’s Family and my three Uncles. Our Families had nothing including running Hot Water, but they scrapped, saved and worked hard to improve our lives.

If you think Trump was born with a Silver Spoon, you are mistaken. If he was, what difference would it make? It just means he came from a hard working Family.

Heck, I don’t even know what your point was. I give up.

Only the tiniest percentage of very smartest lucky ones! LOL!

Does it confound you that most people in this nation do have at least a dim understanding of the breadth and depth of political and financial corruption emanating from places like NYC and DC?

Trump has demonstrably navigated those putrid swamps for decades.Of all we citizens, he knows where all the stench starts.
Who is most knowledgeable/better positioned to clean it up before another devastating civil war breaks out?
Because you are an absolute fool, if you think we are not on the very brink of anarchy.

BTW, are you going to crawl on broken glass, if need be, to vote for Trump if he is the Republican nominee?

His father died worth 250-300 million . He had 5 kids and a wife . Donald did not get 200 of that . And even if he did , he turned it into billions . Good for him and all the folks who got jobs as a result .

Trump’s father did not die until he was 90. Trump had already made a bigger fortune than his fathers. Trump’s father, Fred Trump, left an inheritance of between 250 and 400 million to be split between four children.

At the Time of Fred Trump’s death, Donald Trump had accumulated 2.4 billion.
