Is Trump a self-made millionaire?

[Anonymous]

Is he self-made or did he get most his money from his father?

Trump inherited more than 400 $ million from his father and it’s all documented, so forget the fairy tales. But it’s even worse: He lost a significant amount of money through his bad investment schemes and bankruptcies. Long story short, Trump would be richer today if he had just taken his father’s money and put it in stocks and bonds.

Oh wow, and some people believe his crap.

Smoke and mirrors by an experienced con man for a gullible audience. At CPAC they presented a golden Trump statue for the worshippers. How cultish can it get?

No. His father gave him 320 million in todays dollars back in the 70s?…I want to say.

I read a report if he just left that money in an ETF index fund he’d be worth 10 billion today. Instead his idiotic “business skills” left him with maybe 500 mill adding up his gross properties and such. But owes way more to lawyers most likely.

Oh well, im surprised so many people are brainwashed by him

His dad gave him just $1 million, all the rest he built on his own. So, the money from dad was his start.

If you're made a millionaire by being given the first million, you're not a self-made millionaire, are you?

There's no such thing as a "self-made man"
