What if I told you Donald Trump's wealth has jumped from $2.3 billion to $5.1 billion in just one year?
Even his post-presidency turned into the most lucrative chapter in American history. Can you believe it? From Trump selling guitars to watches, shoes, and even the Bible, all adding to his ever-growing empire.
But the real engine behind this growth, His cult-like following. Half of Trump's wealth in 2024 came from Truth Social, a social media platform. It was a loss-making venture when it first went public, yet his loyal followers hyped it up, transforming it into a massive financial asset.
Trump also launched TrumpCoin, a cryptocurrency that is estimated to have generated $350 million in fees and profits. And of course, things don't stop there. The Trump Organization has announced a $499 gold-colored smartphone recently, paired with a $47.45 per month phone service, marketed as built in the US. Even though experts claim it's virtually impossible to produce it in the US. Only time will tell how true those claims are when it releases.
But here's the bottom line, Trump has mastered the art of monetizing his identity, turning loyalty into profit in ways we've never seen before.
So, what do you think? Is this the future of capitalism?
