    Yeah the perception that he’s somehow a brilliant money person is a sticky one.

    His financial acumen couldn’t hold a candle to the brilliance of even an average economics graduate.

    He has his name on some things but it seems like a lot of fraud, embezzlement, and borrowed money covered over with the thinnest veneer of “success”.

      Apparently if he had taken the money his daddy gave him, and left it alone he would be considerably richer than he is, and still would have been able to buy whatever he wanted, other than giant towers that consistently depreciated in value.
