Remember 1994?
You know, the scandal surrounding how then-First Lady Hilary Clinton had made $100,000 back in the 1970’s by investing in contracts?
Well, get ready to have your mind blown.
Multiply that by 280
Last week, Jeff Bezos agreed to finance a documentary about Melania Trump – that will earn the current First Lady about $28 mio., according to several reports.
That’s 280 times the amount that sent Hilary Clinton into a media storm – but it’s nothing compared to what Donald Trump has earned himself.
Mindblowing numbers
According to The New York Times, Trumps family and it’s business partners have made about $320 mio. during the last few months on the Presidents Crypto Currency, $Trump, alone.
Add to that de numerous foreign real estate deals, Trump has secured.
But we’re not done yet.
The disputed airplane
The disputed airplane, Trump received as a gift from the Royal Family of Qatar, has an estimated value of $200 mio. – more than all previous US Presidents have recieved as gifts combined.
The controversial dinner
Additionally, Trump held a controversial Galla Dinner last week with 220 guests that got access to the dinner by bying $Trump.
According to NBC, the guests bought $Trump worth of $1.8 mio. on average.
So how much is his net worth?
In March, Forbes Magazine estimated Donald Trumps net worth to be $5.1 billion – $1.2 billion more than the year before.
According to the magazine, Trump has never had a bigger net worth.
Probably not illegal
Even though Donald Trump has been accussed of corruption, it’s important to note that he probably hasn’t done anything illegal.
Delaney Marsco, the director of ethics at the Campaign Legal Center, a nonprofit focused on campaign finance and government accountability, said to NBC that criminal conflicts of interest statutes don’t apply to the president.
