It wasn't in the article I found, I thought you might have it handy. I won't waste time looking for it as it matters little to me if Trump has $20 or $20B, I've seen enough of him in the past 35+ years to lose all respect for him as a man, his politics and/or $$$ aren't relevant to that.

Forbes pegged Trump's net worth at $4.5 billion when he said it was $10 billion, and then pegged it at $3.7 billion after the election, indicating that he 'lost' $800 million while running...and has now lost another $600 million on top of that.
It is becoming more well known how demanding, and 'demeaning to instill drive' Fred Trump was. He once acknowledged his son's financial success, but essentially in the same breath referenced that his son was essentially 'permanently behind him' in the 'long and successful marriage department'. I imagine that becoming POTUS (something only 44 other people have done, and something his father didn't do, or set out to do) is more important to Trump (his ego) than any wealth that diminished..possibly partially because of his run. Zuckerberg is less than half of Trump's age, and his net worth is over 20x that of Trump, but if Zuckerberg runs for President during his lifetime, and never wins, Trump will have been President, and Zuckerberg will not have been. Some will say that Trump, due to his lies, shouldn't get any satisfaction out of being President, but I doubt Trump cares about that.
i guess this puts a bit of crimp in the leftist claims that he's enriching himself in office?
How so? Who is receiving the money the SS has to shell out?
"...Also indicative is a USA Today report that in addition to his Mar-a-Lago residencies, as of 21 August Trump had racked up five visits to his private golf club in New Jersey. At these two locations, the Secret Service spent $60,000 on rent for the golf carts needed to protect the president. If that pattern continues, American taxpayers can expect to be dinged for as much as $103,000 per year in golf cart rentals alone...."
"...a total of $21 million for all of Trump’s Mar-a-Lago stays through August, amounting to $2.6 million per month..."
If only Trump would release his tax returns LIKE HE PROMISED, he could clear this matter up quickly.
Alas, they will be under audit until 2030.
