Author Topic: Donald TRUMP furious at FORBES Magazine for ‘embarrassing’ net worth valuation (Read 5253 times)

‘I think you’re trying to make me as poor as possible.’

Forbes’ Randall Lane interviewed upwards of 80 sources to determine that Donald Trump’s net worth is $4.5 billion, Business Insider reports.

Trump, who has repeatedly claimed a net worth of over $10 billion, doesn’t agree.

He accused Forbes of trying to make him look bad, calling the publication “bankrupt” and “incompetent,” adding in an interview with Lane that a “respected magazine that’s coming out” will value him at $11.5 billion.

Most getbiggers would feel embarrassed being estimated at a laughable 4,5 billion I guess.

I saw a youtube video the other day that said that Trump inherited $20 million from his daddy in 1972 and if you applied the shares growth over the top 100 companies on the NY exchange from 1972 to 2015 then that $20 million would be worth $18 billion today.

In other words, Trumps businesses have performed at 50% of the average top firms in terms of share value growth on his own valuation.

So if Trump had simply invested his $20 million in shares of the top 100 companies in 1972 and sat on his arse doing nothing he would be worth
twice what his personal estimated fortune is today (and 4 times what forbes say he is worth).

or they could have went under and he could have lost everything? or he may have wanted to create something himself regardless of economic logic.

Trump loses his cool way too easily. Sometimes you cannot "swing down" at every media report or reporter or pollster. It's one thing to be tough... but the way he called up CNN late on a friday night to troll megyn kelly for her period? ?

I prefer a more level headed president.

They should have women say Trump has a 4 inch penis and is a premature ejaculater and really watch him get upset.

I totally agree however Trump continually boasts about being one of the best businessmen in the world and yet the companies he controls have performed far below the average performance of the top 100 companies in the USA over the past 43years.

And of course he has gone under several times via bankruptcy. But only his investors and suppliers have lost everything. He is an expert at using the insolvency laws or personal protection.

I would rather have someone who is a bit immature but with their actions makes the country a better place to live in....Rather than a piece of shit like Obama with his fake smile and radical political correctness and deliver on nothing..

Donald Trump vs Hillary Clinton for president $:-\$

Donald Trump chided Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg in a Tuesday interview with The New York Times after she gave multiple comments that were highly critical of his campaign.

“I think it’s highly inappropriate that a United States Supreme Court judge gets involved in a political campaign, frankly,” Trump told the Times by phone. “I think it’s a disgrace to the court and I think she should apologize to the court. I couldn’t believe it when I saw it.”

Ginsburg in recent days has ramped up her criticisms of Trump's campaign. She has said he's a "faker" who should release his tax returns, that she "can't imagine" a Trump presidency, and that "everything" would be up for grabs with him occupying the White House. Ginsburg's comments are unique in that a Supreme Court justice typically doesn't comment on presidential candidates during election season.

Trump went on to say that it was "beneath the court" for Ginsburg to criticize him and argued that her comments would only further energize his supporters. "And I would hope that she would get off the court as soon as possible,” he added.

Who is this daddy you claim died in 1972? Fred Trump died in 1999. Trump was worth hundreds of millions if not billions by then.

“There are five character flaws that are dangerous for a general. If he is reckless, his men can be killed. If he is cowardly, his army can be captured. If he is short-tempered, he will react in anger. If he is self-important, he can be deceived. If he is attached to his men, he will hesitate at a crucial moment. These five flaws are certainly unfortunate for a general because they cause great destruction in war. These five flaws cause generals to fail and armies to die. Consider them well.”

Trump is 100% correct about senile Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

She is an ultra-left liberal moron who suffers from dementia and should be forced into retirement.

And yet somehow he's made billions. No one with all those flaws could succeed in business, they'd get played in a heartbeat. Many never done nothing trolls here.
