Donald John Trump (born June 14, 1946) is the 45th and current president of the United States. Before entering politics, he was a businessman and television personality. Trump was born and raised in the New York City borough of Queens, and received a bachelor's degree in economics from the Wharton School. He took charge of his family's real-estate business in 1971, renamed it The Trump Organization, and expanded its operations from Queens and Brooklyn into Manhattan.
The company built or renovated skyscrapers, hotels, casinos, and golf courses. Trump later started various side ventures, mostly by licensing his name. He owned the Miss Universe and Miss USA beauty pageants from 1996 to 2015, and produced and hosted The Apprentice, a reality television show, from 2003 to 2015. Forbes estimates his net worth to be $3.1 billion.
HE learned how to do business the hard way – buying car aerials and selling them from the back of a second-hand van. And Lord Sugar — now worth an estimated £1.2billion — is in no doubt how he would have fared had the show that gained him millions of TV fans been around when he was an entrepreneurial teen.
He said: “I was 16 or 17 when I started, and if The Apprentice was around then, I would have won it.” Lord Sugar has filmed the 17th series of the hit BBC business show — but he admits that he had no grand plan for the UK version of the programme when it began.
He said: “I had no vision for the show. The original was formed in America where Donald Trump was the equivalent of what I do.
He was useless, to be honest with you. “The BBC wanted to find a businessman to replicate it and I thought it was exciting.” READ MORE ON THE APPRENTICEFESTIVE FIRSTS The Apprentice's Dr Leah Totton shares exciting Christmas plans with newbornTHE INSTA-PPRENTICE The Apprentice 2023 line up revealed as most fame-hungry ever Growing up the youngest of four children on a housing estate in Hackney, East London, Lord Sugar earned pocket money boiling beetroot for a grocer.
