Forbes: Trump's Net Worth Fell by $800 Million This Year

Donald Trump is still way richer than you are — but the gap is closing, according to new calculations of the presidential hopeful's net worth. Trump's net worth is estimated to have fallen to $3.7 billion in the last year.

Declines in New York real estate hit the businessman's fortune, knocking off $800 million, and making his net worth now around $3.7 billion, a Forbes probe has found.

During the course of his presidential campaign, Trump has made much of his successful career and his high net worth, which he has estimated as high as $10 billion.

The magazine examined 28 Trump assets and found that 18 had declined in value, the most notable being the Trump Tower in Manhattan, his 40 Wall Street property near the New York Stock Exchange, and his ritzy Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach, Florida. NBCNEWS.com

Didn't HRC touch on this during the debate, much to the ire of Donald? He really didn't like it when she was trying to explain away his reluctance to release his taxes, saying that it may be because he's not worth as much as he says he is...or far worse.

I wonder if he is overcompensating his value because of some inadequacy he has.

His net worth may be zero if he owes a lot of money, or less than zero. He may be in arrears. Coyotl Sep 2016 #2

rename all those buildings. "Obama Tower", "Obama Plaza", etc. etc. would work, I think.
