Donald Trump was one of America’s most famous businessmen before he became President, and he’s spoken openly about his wealth, including releasing a book on how to get rich
President Donald Trump is hardly shy when it comes to talking about cash, and he regularly discusses his business successes and huge wealth.
His luxury penthouse atop Trump Tower is decked out in marble and gold, and his ‘winter White House’ retreat at Mar-a-Lago is much the same.
On the election campaign trail during his first bid for the White House back in 2016, he bragged that his fortune is “in excess of $10billion” (£7.2bn).
But his true worth could be far less than that.
In 2012 a statement filed on Trump’s behalf to the Securities and Exchange Commission by Wells Fargo Securities indicated he was worth $4.2billion, the Guardian revealed.
