BOOK SUMMARY: Donald Trump's How to Get Rich
 

I just finished reading Donald Trump's How to Get Rich. Here it is in a nutshell:

Build (3) galleries a day and have $5 submissions submit them for you. Repeat.

I thought his 'how to get rich' tactic was 'get thee into MLM'?<br>
<i>... over the summer of 1998 Donald Trump made an appearance on the David Letterman show. Dave asked him what he would do if he lost everything and had to start over from scratch. Without hesitating, Trump said he would find a good network marketing company and get to work. The audience started to hoot and boo him. He looked out at the audience and dead-panned his response - "That's why I'm sitting up here and you are all sitting out there!" </i>

Must not be working out too well for him... isnt he broke again?

more like: inherit money from your daddy... invest in nyc properties (no brainer)

finance your atlantic city casinos with high interest junk bonds... dont generate any revenue... refinance before you are forced to declare bankruptcy... carry on the same pathetic business practices for another 7 years... continue to lose money... get to another point where you have to refinance and get forced out of the casinos completely...

people on wall street laugh at trump... his casinos have never made a dollar... you wouldnt believe how much money they owe in loans... donald trump isnt a great entrepeneur... ive yet to see evidence to the contrary... he says the casinos are only about 2% of his net worth, id like to know where the rest comes from... its probably just another bullshit trump lie

Good will/Intangibles :winkwink:

yep his casinos havent made a profit since going public

I just ordered that book, it should arrive today or tomorrow. Hehe I wish I had read your summary before I ordered it.

I just read "Art of the Deal" last week and it was quite interesting. In the book it talks alot about building and financing his new casinos, however the book was written some time ago.

Whatever you guys say, the guy knows how to make money.

I think Donald trump and other financially elite people out there pay good money to be able to report losses and financial woes year after year regardless of their income. :2 cents:

Think about that a bit :glugglug

yeah

I found three typos in the book too, they don't have spell check? or at least get 20 people to read 10 pages each to check for typos, or something anything

no...i have a better how to do: w.r.i.t.e such a stupid book......

i got the book too, i'm about 1/2 way thru with it.

It's a lot llike GFY. you have to read 50 pages of bullshit to find 2 pages of good information.


It seems a little repetitive and rushed to press to play off the popularity of his TV Show.

Rushed is an understatement. Typos everywhere!

Awesome! Thanks :winkwink:

Invent a Jump To Conclusions mat.

Isn't the book written for entertainment purposes though? It's not meant to be some secret manual on how to get rich.

Are you saying that maybe not everyone who reports a loss really has one? Never.

he is good at self promotion.

Yeah what a jackass he is, you could do what he's done right? It's just beneath you. :1orglaugh

Maybe Trump could teach you "the art of the apostrophe".

haha :1orglaugh

HAHA. :thumbsup

I'm trying that with 4 galleries a day. Think I'll be richer than Trump?
