%% I know what you mean. BUT FORBES magazine did a cover story, measured his wealth, very detailed. Less than he claimed; but billions, net worth.[What he owned compared to what he owed.] Interesting he is wise enough to put a lightening rod on his Chicago hi rise-many are not.LOL
omg, his LLC's which are not him have done as you suggested. I'm from the area he made his name; and in the 40 plus yrs he was making news; not once was there a scandal in business. it was quite the opposite (note ice rink) and yeah, he IS a billionaire. lastly, this is the first time in a very long time i agreed w/ surf...err truetype
He seems to be a mealy-mouted pouty boy with an ego so bruised it amazes me he has not kicked his own bucket by now. But his narcissism has buffeted him from that pain I guess. I do not think he is thinking of the markets (or this country) in general when he makes his decisions, but only what he covets in his own cold, bleeding heart. The guy was personable 40 years ago when he was still making honest money. (Remember Ivana and the initial Trump tower bit? He was a New York Hero, IIRC.) But he seems to have turned, twisted and wretched in his own stead, like a Grinch who not only stomps on Tiny-Tim's already-broken body, but on the bodies of everyone involved with him in any way at this point in time.
surf...err truetype is ok in my book, quite clever and I actually follow him (interested in his comments) SO LONG AS he stays well away from pretending he's a clever profitable market timer trader and stays away from slagging TA.
He is a billionaire if... there is not a loan that means he owes more than what he appears to have. Personally I recon that scrit is held by a crossroads demon. The same one that got Normal Vincent Peale.
Unlikely he is though. What are his real debts? With this guy.. He has said he is so much it implies he is not.
1. He is not. 2. We are probably happier than him. The guy is just a miserable fuck. 3. We also don't have to suck Russian cocks. At least not yet.
