Eric Trump, the son of President Donald Trump, is an American businessman, philanthropist, reality show personality and political activist who has just reached a major net worth milestone.
Trump reached billionaire status as his shares of American Bitcoin, his cryptocurrency mining company, surged during their market debut on Sept. 3, Forbes reported. Trump is believed to own 73 million shares, worth an estimated $950 million at its peak.
According to Celebrity Net Worth, his total net worth is now believed to be $2 billion.
Other Sources of Wealth
Prior to being the co-founder and chief strategy officer of American Bitcoin, Trump made most of his money as an executive and trustee of The Trump Organization and has filled many roles within that organization. He and older brother Donald Trump Jr. often work together and share leadership roles. He is currently the executive vice president for the group.
Trump’s net worth is also boosted by his properties, which include private residences, a winery and a stake in a game preserve.
In 2012, he was recognized in Forbes’ Top 30 Under 30 in real estate.
