    Based on math I’ve done in my head all I need is a 7.2% return. If you let me use the interest rates from the years in Trumps taxes I’ve already won. As 1yr CD rates were over that during the period form 1985 to 1993 or so. #BillionDollarLoser

      He literally could have put in money in CDs and actually been a billionaire. Now this is oversimplified, inflation, blah, blah. But at any decent RoR he could have easily just sit on his ass and done nothing and made money. He went out of his WAY to lose it. #BillionDollarLoser

      And kids who say math isn’t important? I just humiliated the president using what I know about compounding interest. I’m done tons of math in Engineering, but I never expected that. So you know, keep the basics in your head at least. Or you might become a #BillionDollarLoser
