He would have been a billionaire by now by sticking his 200 million in a bank on interest.
Its not successful to get handed 200 million dollars.

if you believe trump has been bankrupt multiple times you do

200mm? When?

Always the plebs saying this shit.

Take a statistical average of the number of people who inherited over $1 million and find out how many made it 100 fold, answer is very few.
Most people aren't brought up well and end up blowing the money on shit that loses value not creates it.

Bankruptcy 1: The Trump Taj Mahal, 1991

The first bankruptcy associated with Trump was perhaps the most significant in terms of his personal finances, according to news reports at the time. He funded the construction of the $1 billion Trump Taj Mahal casino in Atlantic City, which opened in 1990. By 1991, the casino was nearly $3 billion in debt, while Trump had racked up nearly $900 million in personal liabilities, so the business decided to file for Chapter 11 reorganization, according to the New York Times. As a result, Trump gave up half his personal stake in the casino and sold his yacht and airline, according to the Washington Post.

Sounds like a great business man.

Bankruptcy 2: Trump Plaza Hotel, 1992

Trump acquired the Plaza Hotel in New York for $390 million in 1988. By 1992, the hotel had accumulated $550 million in debt. As a result of the bankruptcy, in exchange for easier terms on which to pay off the debts, Trump relinquished a 49 percent stake in the Plaza to a total of six lenders, according to ABC News. Trump remained the hotel’s CEO, but it was merely a gesture -- he didn’t earn a salary and had no say in the hotel’s day-to-day operations, according to the New York Times.

Sounds like a great businessman.

Bankruptcy 3: Trump Hotels and Casinos Resorts, 2004

Trump Hotels and Casinos Resorts filed for bankruptcy again in 2004 when his casinos -- including the Trump Taj Mahal, Trump Marina and Trump Plaza casinos in Atlantic City and a riverboat casino in Indiana -- had accrued an estimated $1.8 billion in debt, according to the Associated Press. Trump agreed to reduce his share in the company from 47 to 27 percent in a restructuring plan, but he was still the company’s largest single shareholder and remained in charge of its operations. Trump told the Associated Press at the time that the company represented less than 1 percent of his net worth.

He lies through his teeth here and also sounds like a great business man.

Trump inherited between 120 and 200 million, he has not made it 100 fold, he is barely worth 4.5 billion on forbes estimates, and he will not release his tax forms to show his worth.
There is a HUGE difference between 1 million and 120 million or 200 million.

Mr.mime. Trump ate Payplate.org.

you have yet to point out an example of Trump being bankrupt

Now its 120mm-200mm? When did he get that cash?

Trump declared bankruptcy on those businesses, no one said he lost everything.
Again, he lost billions where any good business man should have made money.


1982.
Google could tell you all you need to know about it.
Just for the record though, 120 million in 1982 was a lot more money than it is now.
