Thanks for the clarification. His dad also co-signed his early real estate deals as well.

I never understood why Hillary didn't attack his bonifides as a businessman. He isn't a good businessman. He's mediocre.

All told, he received just north of $410 MILLION from his father Fred Trump's real estate businesses and estate over the course of his lifetime. Interestingly enough, from what we do know of Trump's net worth, he'd be worth more today had he simply taken all the money Daddy gave him and conservatively invested it and sat back and let smarter men use his money to make money for him. He's only lost money over the course of his lifetime by trying to play Businessman.
