maybe it's a silly comparison between the 2, but my point is Trump parlayed that $50 million into $10 billion, not squandering it being a playboy, which is what i would have done. i read way back when that Trump's had to restructure deals with 100s of banks to resolve things, that's experience in debating the issues. again, from $50 million to $10 billion.
