Find the post I did yesterday looking at his golf courses in Scotland (analysis from Twitter). Vastly inflated values of real estate, that keep going up to
cover the fact that Trump is probably money laundering...
And no, those loans will not roll over with no problems UNLESS Trump is still president, and then the ask will be large for Trump - and potentially dangerous for the USA.
I thought you were in the air services business. What the heck are you holding hotel real estate for? No wonder you are so desperate for "opening" the country up...
Didn't you accost me yesterday for posting "unsupported speculation. Not a whit of real evidence?" as fact?
Yet you do it here.
So I was right- you don't REALLY care about speculation, just the target of it.
Practice what you preach, big guy.
Red’s post is junk. Straight up. I don’t care what Trump’s assets are worth but Mar a Lago has to be over $500,000,000 alone.
Nope, Mar a Lago may be worth $100-150 million at most. Revenues are declining and post election, hoo boy expect big declines. But it has some hard asset, location value, so someone may take it off his hands when push comes to shove.
But hey, he only paid $10 million for it back in 1985, so there's some solace.
MD anybody that wants to get in to a grammer debate with you is barking up the wrong tree.
There are PB estates selling with 1/4 the acreage for $150 million and worse location.
untrue, $105 millón was a recent record sale, full property, house, etc.

My aunt recently sold a 'small' home there.
Can you try replying, just once, with little to no pronouns. please.
Hey, any time you (pronoun) decide to use proper spelling, grammar and punctuation, please alert us (pronoun).
BTW, I (pronoun) think you meant first person personal pronoun. I (yes, that's 1st person) share whatever personal context I (again) have for an opinion, rather than just spouting off incoherently and without context.
Don't read my posts if you don't care about what I say.
I'm not sure why he picked a grammar fight with you. I know you take great pain to be meticulous in your word structure. I may disagree with your content but you are grammatically perfect. Dammit.
I, mostly, misspell on purpose.....to annoy the annoying. The begging to stop using pronouns is a cry for the vanity to stop.
I, me, I, me. Strange need to tell us all about who he is, who he knows. After all, who doesn't tell their sons it's super important to own a TUX, just in case, you never know. He awtta take a drive to Hagerstown and Cumberland, give that same advise to HIGH school kids there.
hey, rrr, abc, fatty, how about you just stop
trying to annoy others? why pick fights?
I don't mind at all you poking some fun at me, I can laugh at myself. (Look at all those personal pronouns!).
It's not "vanity" to provide context for an opinion based on personal experience. That tux story, if I recall correctly, was in context of another discussion...and I was poking fun at the situation not some sort of vanity. Quite the opposite actually. It's just a suit, but sometimes required for the occasion. I've never bought a brand new tux for me or my son, but we did do the math on having one at the ready versus rental. The humorous aspect of that story was that my son had been turned off by the high preppy style of a southern school that was recruiting him, the tuxes and colorful bow tie set, so when he went off to Harvard my wife and I knew that it was quite likely that he'd find himself needing a tux in order to go to some of the parties. Would never have occurred to me for my own alma mater, a rival to the north, blue jeans and a sweatshirt being the typical 'suit' for a party, so I found it funny. He thought his mother and I were being ridiculous, he'd never need the tux, but we stuck it in the back of his closet. So, when he came home at Thanksgiving and asked for another formal shirt for Christmas, we thought he must have stained the first one...but no, he sometimes had back to back formal parties with no time to get a shirt cleaned...I found that humorous. And yes, I'd give the same advice to a lacrosse player headed to Harvard or Yale or Princeton (or a number of other schools) from Hagerstown or Cumberland...I'd also tell them to buy a used one from the rental folks. Perfectly fine.
My mention of an aunt selling a house in Palm Beach recently is just context. It's not my money. Her husband, my father's only cousin, was the son of small garage owner in Frederick. He went to Hopkins, then into the Navy in Intelligence, then to Southeast Asia in the early 60's, then was tapped to work at AIG, in Japan, Thailand, Nigeria, ultimately was part of the Starr group and ran the life business of AIG worldwide. Their house in PB was relatively modest...in a town of very little modesty. High conspicuous consumption.
In the discussion of Trump's debts, our Florida pal, Petey, was suggesting that Mar a Lago is worth multiples of its actual value. I pointed out that was inaccurate with a specific fact of the top price paid for any property, and provided additional context as to why I'd paid a bit of attention previously to market values down there. Not vanity.
