The net worth of president elect Donald Trump is not publicly known. For decades, Forbes has assessed his wealth, currently estimating it at $5.5 billion as of mid-November 2024.[2][3] Meanwhile, Bloomberg estimates his wealth at $6.32 billion as of the same date,[4] although Trump himself claims a much higher net worth. He received gifts, loans, and inheritance from his father, who was a real-estate developer and businessman. Donald Trump's primary business has been real estate ventures, including hotels, casinos, and golf courses. He also made money from Trump-branded products including neckties, steaks, and urine tests.[5] Money received through political fundraisers is used to pay for guest stays at properties owned by the Trump Organization and to pay his and his allies' lawyers.[6][7][8][9]
