Of course you are impressed though.

Lots of people are born into privilege that dint happen to be good at everything. I'm pretty sure it takes some type of effort turning a million dollar loan into 4 billion dollars. Guess he did that by ribbing those 30 people at Trump U though, right?

Partly, yes. A lot of it was made by constructing large buildings and stiffing the contractors on the money he owed them and when they sued, he has his lawyers tie them up in court, until they could no longer fight. Other money was made via his cheesy reality show, bankruptcy, licensing of his name and a lot of "business dealings" overseas with partners of questionable character. He definitely knows how to get what he wants, but it's rarely ethical how he goes about getting it.
