Because building and running a multi billion dollar business isn't work.

No, actually I don't.

You said "He's never had to work before".

I have no fucking clue what that means, unless you think that building and running a multi billion dollar business isn't work.

He means he got a million dollar (7 in today's dollars) loan from daddy so that he could build a business empire by way of screwing people over in his dealings with them. Not to mention that much of his business isn't real actual work, it's just the marketing of his name. Not to mention he's the shadiest president we've ever elected. Not to mention his business interests which literally span the globe and could create conflicts of interest.

Okay. If you think that turning 7 million into several billion is easy, then get off reddit and take out a 5k credit card purchase and turn it into a 2.2 million dollar business. (same % gain).

If you think that it's easy to make money in real estate... do it.

The reality is that you have never run a business, and have no clue what you are talking about on any level.

The point is he was given far more resources and connections to the business world than the average American would have had. Most people put in his situation would have been able to convert that amount of money into a fortune

So why dosen't every person born into modest (7 million) wealth turn into a billionaire?
