Once there was The Donald, The Don, The Trumpster and DJT. Now there is Trump, the 3 Billion Dollar Name.Donald Trump

Yes, the real estate mogul, who once allegedly lost all the money of his investors in Trump Tower Tampa, a 52 story luxury apartment project that went bust. A trial is pending in December at the federal courthouse in Tampa.

Yes, the reality television star of “The Celebrity Apprentice.” The show first started out as “The Apprentice” and is usually in the top ratings spot for its time slot. Yet none of them have really done anything beneficial for the world, unless one counts being a celebrity as being beneficial to the world.

Yes, the author of his latest book, “Time to Get Tough,” due out December 5, 2011. In Trump's latest attempt at self-promotion, Trump spells out his net worth. He derives a figure that is billions more than Forbes magazine, which puts his net worth at $2.9 billion.

In his book, Trump totals his assets at close to $7 billion, with his name “Trump” valued at $3 billion. He asserts that his name's value “has been established by Predictiv, the highly respected brand valuation company.”

Forbes only response on the issue of Trump's name is incredulity.
