Donald John Trump is one of the most successful and famous entrepreneurs on the planet, and is personally one of my favorite entrepreneurs. He is primarily a real estate mogul, author, television personality, and overall CEO of Trump Organization. Donald Trump has his name on almost everything, including books, clothing, board games, iPhone Apps, and more. It is really his great branding, and excellent business skills that have gotten him to be as successful as he is. Donald Trump grew up in Woodhaven, New York where he attended the Kew-Forest School located in Queens, New York City. Trump ran into trouble, so his parents sent him to New York Military Academy, which clearly helped straighten out his priorities. Trump was very successful in his academics, as well as his sports, playing football. He would later attend Fordham University, in the Bronx before transferring to Wharton School of Business, at the University of Pennsylvania. Wharton School of Business has one of the top reputations for business schools in the country. Life hasn't been complete success for Trump, as he was in serious debt with financial trouble in the 1980s and part of the 1990s. Trump experienced slumps with some of his real estate investments, and a sluggish market, which led to Trump owing a lot of people a lot of money, that he couldn't necessarily pay back on time. Since the later 1990s, Trump has recovered, and is said to be worth somewhere around $3 billion. Some of his most famous buildings include Trump Tower, located on 5th avenue in the heart of New York City, Trump World Tower, which is located in United Nations Tower, in New York City, The Trump Taj Majal, Trump Plaza, and various real estate he owns throughout the world and New York City. Trump also has owned many different top notch resorts, golf courses, gaming, and more, although some of his gaming locations have faced financial difficulties, especially in the 2008 recession. Other Trump projects include being part owner with NBC of the Miss Universe Pageant, which is always extremely popular. Other Trump businesses include Trump Financial, Trump University, Trump Sales and Leasing, Donald J. Trump Signature Collection (clothing), Trump Magazine, Trump Golf, Trump Vodka, Trump steaks, and more. Trump has also written over 14 books so far in his career, with no end in stop. After reading some of his books, they were actually pretty interesting, and occasionally helpful, although reading them will not turn you into a millionaire. He is also part of the hit show on NBC, The Apprentice, which is part of why he has been in the public spotlight so much in recent years. Check out Donald Trump on Youtube here
