My Dad Gave Me A Small Loan of A Million Dollars....It Has Not Been Easy

[nuhuh]

Donald Trump is worth $4 billion he started with $1 million and then $199million on top of that.I'd say it would be hard not to do well with that kind of gift.

It's more than easy to fritter away a fortune. Just look at all the musicians, movie stars and athletes who passed away their fortunes.

Trump too! he declared bankruptcy four times.

Seems he overcame it to be worth BILLIONS. Social welfare leeches have been handed money only to continue being leeches.

Yeah, using the public's money to overcome your cash flow problem is exactly the same as being a social welfare leech..

Not if you provide something to the public they would otherwise not get. There's a difference in using something while producing a return and using something then producing nothing.

LOL, your rationale is wonderful. Erase your debt as long as you provide housing for the rich.

Yeah, because we all know what a "slum" Trump tower is.

Trump's use of shoddy construction is well known.

LOL.

"I Used my $1MM to gets me blunts, bitches n 40's" -- Nuhuh

Funny, Frank does the same with his $200 welfare check.

I wish the welfare leeches that have received $22 trillion over the past 50 years would have turned it into anything close to what Trump did percentage wise.

you should probably give the money back then.

Unlike you automatically think, never took any. What you need to know is that not everyone expects the government to take care of them.

You'll have to excuse me if I don't shed a tear for those claiming not to have had it 'easy' despite being winners in the ovarian lottery. There is nothing wrong with coming from a wealthy family and gaining an inheritance but act don't like you really struggled.

Trump isn't whining that he was poor, you petulant dolt. He's pointing out that he built his fortune through his own efforts, and it was not an easy task.

Now go back to your sleazy dishonest spinning.

I am sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt your fluff session. I should have knocked first. lol

It is unmistakable Trump had a leg up when came to building his fortune. Get over yourself.

FDR had a "leg up" and especially so did the political dynasty of the Kennedy family. Everybody admired Camelot even though old Joe made his money rum running and none of the Kennedy brothers ever had a real job. Now the socialist hypocrites come out of the political closet and make fun of a guy who parlayed a million into a billion with a real job.

Who cares? We all are living on borrowed money and time.

Get your house in order...

Would Teddy have skirted around the law with Mary Jo had his family not had money?

 

[the_human_being]

I'm still trying to figure out why I should care that Trump's dad loaned him money....

It illustrates Donald Trump's lack of good business sense when he could have taken that money invested it in the stock market and enjoyed a fortune many, many, times than would he ended up with by using his business acumen. Wharton didn't do him any good at all.

Not everyone does the same thing. I never played the stock market. I depended upon my own self and my own business - not someone else's business.

Donald Trump took the money and played his father's game, he could have done much, much, better playing the market. It goes to business sense.

Donald Trump is worth $9 billion. If he started with that $1 million and turned it into $9 billion, that's a 9000% return. I would say he played the game well.

Donald Trump is worth $4 billion he started with $1 million and then $199million on top of that.I'd say it would be hard not to do well with that kind of gift.

Well, he did. So, what's your bitch? Jealousy? Envy?

But none of them claimed they had it so hard.

 

[the_human_being]

Damn! Why couldn't Trump get his money the old-fashioned way like from his daddy's bootlegging business a la president Kennedy, or marrying fabulously wealthy woman like presidential wannabe Kerry, or maybe chasing ambulances like the philandering Johnny Edwards?

Because being a slum lord is far more profitable.

Sounds like you are eaten up with envy. Crybaby!!

 

[CrusaderFrank]

Wow, what a hard luck story. If Donald had only inherited $100 million I can't imagine the pain he would have to endure. This ranks right up there with Mitt Romney quotes about asking your parents for a loan to start a business. One thing's for sure....Donald didn't build that.

"As Donald Trump tells it, he has been told no his entire life. For example, he said Monday, his father gave him a "small loan of a million dollars" that he had to repay with interest at the start of his career.

“Oh many times. I’ve been told no by him. My whole life, really has been a no," the Republican presidential candidate said during a town hall event in Atkinson, New Hampshire, on NBC's "Today."


“It has not been easy for me. It has not been easy for me. I started off in Brooklyn. My father gave me a small loan of a million dollars," Trump remarked. "I came into Manhattan, and I had to pay him back, and I had to pay him back with interest. But I came into Manhattan and I started buying properties, and I did great."

I think his dad also left him over $100,000 when he died.

the Donald is clueless.

Trump 1999 Forbes 400 Rank: 145; $1.6 billion. that's the year Fred died. Not bad for $1MM investment but still far below the $1.8E101 that Hillary would be worth had she kept her 47,000% IRR streak from "trading commodities" going

You think or you can prove?

I bet you also think that part of that should be taken and handed to someone other than who his dad wanted it to go to.

prove what? that he's clueless? he's proven it himself.

did I say "hand" it to someone else?

you need to stop melting down and read.

your problem is you're so irrational about anyone who isn't a rightwingnut that you can't even engage about the fact that trump's statement that he had it hard was laughable.

Did any of them whine about it? I'm sure you can find at least one quote from one of them.

...make fun of a guy who parlayed a million into a billion with a real job.

Four bankruptcies. None of you want to talk about that. Never mind that the "real job" consisted of sucking up to Daddy's friends in real estate and using their contacts.

Four bankruptcies. Tell me how this makes him a "leader."

He provided something by having the public pick up his debt. He's no better than the welfare leeches you scorn.

He could have lost it all in the stock market too.

Not if he went S&P.

Well, some of pursue other vocations. Get used to it. If everyone invested in the S&P, who would actually build things?

What have the welfare leeches provided? He produced a return. Where's there return on the $22 trillion wasted on them?

Here you are again telling other people all about business of which you know very little. A lot of casinos went tits up in Atlantic City. Many business go bankrupt and emerge stronger than before. It's done all the time.
