In 1982, Forbes presented for the first time in the history of the US rating of 400 richest businessmen. According to published data, the state of Donald Trump was estimated at $ 200 million. Donald Trump asked to write in the end of lanes about him such a phrase: “Donald claims that he is state is $ 500 million.” In 1988, Forbes estimated the state of Trump for $ 1 billion. At the same time he said that his condition was much higher: $ 3.7 billion. In 1988 Trump sent to the editor Forbes list of his personal residences and published in the Los Angeles Times essay “Forbes has got vendetta against me”, which claimed that the magazine does not give a correct data about his state in order to destroy Trump’s reputations. A similar story was repeated in 1996 and 2015.
