Donald Trump journey from a small time builder to USA presidential candidate

The multi-talented television producer, American businessperson and politician, Donald Trump journey started when he was born and brought up in Jamaica Estates, Queens near New York City on June 14, 1946. Donald is the President and Chairperson of The Trump Organization, which is a real estate venture and has worked on many projects like office tower, golf courses, hotels, an urban development project in Manhattan and many other projects worldwide. Trump is the second youngest son of Fred and Mary Trump and has four siblings – Elizabeth, Robert and Maryanne. He left his school at the age of 13 because of his rude and rough behavior problems. Then he was enrolled in NYMA (New York Military Academy) and from where he finished his High school. For his higher studies, he went to Wharton and from there he completed his graduation in 1968 with Bachelor of Science in Economics. Read more news on Donald Trump.

Whilst he was graduating, Trump joined his father’s company, Elizabeth Trump & Son, and started his career in real estate. Given the authority of the company in 1971, he renamed it to The Trump Organisation. His first huge deal was the construction of the Grand Hyatt Hotel in Manhattan in 1978. This was then followed by the setting up of the Trump Tower in 1983. He expanded his business to a great extent by later acquiring the Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida, Plaza Hotel in Manhattan, the Taj Mahal Casino in New Jersey, and so much more. His organisation looks after many resorts and golf courses in the US. Along with real estate, Trump has also been involved in beauty pageants and professional sports. Though he owns multiple homes, Trump loves to spend most of his free time in Trump Tower in Manhattan. He himself does not drink but owns a Vodka brand which was launched in 2006.

Appearing for the Presidential Elections was an idea that was running in Trump’s head since long. He is a well-known figure in America and is now the Republican Party Nominee for president in 2016 with his campaign Slogan “Make America Great Again”. If we talk about his net worth, Trump is the 324th richest man in the world. He is one of the wealthiest politicians in the American History. With net worth $3.7 billion (as estimated by Forbes in 2016), Trump’s per year salary stands at $60 million.

No doubt, Trump is a powerful and confident personality and is giving tough competition to other nominees. He is very skilled with his business practices, which make him a great negotiator; despite of his controversial image he has mastered the fine art of convincing complex dealers and navigating them to achieve his goals. Trump’s controversial image is indeed fascinating but now he is keeping his steps very neatly to avoid any mess in future. Read Business News.
