I'm not saying I would have made nearly as much money in the same situation but don't you think being born the son of a New York real estate mogul helped him be a bit more successful than your average person? I mean, inheriting millions to start with is kind of important. |
Donald Trump inherited somewhere between $40m-$200m. He is now worth somewhere between $2bn and $10bn. That's an increase of between 10* and 250*. Wild numbers, sure... but the vast majority of people who come into large sums of money either through inheritance, or winning lotteries/bets or professional sports or whatever just squander the crap out of it.
Donald's the sort of guy who would have made it no matter what. Whatever he is, it isn't an idiot.
