And then there is D.T. who gets millions from his father, parlays it into a 4 billion dollar empire over 40 years. The truth is, if you had taken that same millions he got from his father, invested it conservatively in almost any 401 for 40 years, it would be worth 12 billion. Yet Trump is a business genius. Got it.

I hear this a lot . It's actually Very very hard to turn a million into billions .

Those stock market theories are mostly theories based on the market going up and up

He is a business genius .

If it was so easy to turn millions into billions why do all these startup businesses fail ?

Lots of us would have just invested it. Trump did something better and created thousands of jobs. Mostly blue collar jobs. Nothing to hate about that.

Not every start up begins with Daddy writing a check. And then when they fail, Daddy bailing them out. Some people, unlike Trump, have to actually earn their way to success instead of having Daddy hand it to them.
