"MacLeod died a year later on August 7, 2000 at Long Island Jewish Medical Center in New Hyde Park, New York, at age 88."

She suffered from Osteoporosis, not sure if that caused her death.

AA, "That's how Donald Trump made billions out of nothing!"

50 years ago when he was given $1 million for his 21st birthday. And when daddy died he got the rest.

I wonder how hard it must of been to manage that struggle to billionaire being so far behind the 8 ball. Poor kid.

It isn't easy to turn a few million into a few billion. A couple of billion is an obscene amount of investment and it takes an extraordinary team to grow and protect.

There are approximately 540 in the US with a population of 326 million and approximately 11 million millionaires.

I can assure you it wasn't an easy task turning multiple millions into multiple billions. It is also easy to understand why people dislike Trump's arrogance. chuckle
