According to the best source, Forbes, he ran it into billions. He lost billions in public service unlike Biden.

Why do you believe that, Austin? Do you have a source for those figures? I'm not aware of one (although I agree Biden has not lost billions of dollars while in public service).

Much like his star on Hollywood Blvd, he (or was it "John Barron") [paid](https://www.cnbc.com/2018/04/20/trump-used-fake-persona-to-lie-about-his-wealth-former-forbes-writer.html) to be on that list. In fact, he's now facing multiple felony charges in New York for his decades of financial perfidy.

Forbes does not put people on the rich list for money. They are quite good business journalists who have developed an expertise over decades.

And yet he would have been even richer if he just stuck his inheritance into n SP 500 fund and forgot about it.
