IMF Names Deutsche Bank As Biggest Systemic Risk To Global Finance

http://themerkle.com/imf-names-deuts...lobal-finance/

I am sure that Trump's economic team already has plans in place to cash in if and when this happens.

that is not how Donald makes his money

He leverages, pays himself and ignores all else. When the business fails, he goes bankrupt and moves on.

I had friends who did the same thing on a small scale.

You open a mom and pop BUT incorporated. You run up the debt on the corp than move on. Always taking a grand salary and even selling off fixtures.

All perfectly legal. Ethical, not so much, but perfectly legal.

No one should regard people who behave like that to be friends.

Is this your opinion, or was there a source of information you learned this from?
I and many others would reconsider our positions if we could see this is the case.
I think I read somewhere that less than 2% of his businesses Went bankrupt. No idea how that relates to the money he made, but it would seem unlikely he got the bulk of his wealth from such a small slice of his endeavors.

Note: PIO's link goes to a Fortune magazine piece that analyzes the patterns and history of Trump's business methods.

Yes, it's nowhere near an objective analysis either, with no data.

There's better analysis out there concerning Abe Lincoln's two bankruptcies.

Google is your friend. There have been reams written about Trump's unsavory and unethical business practices. He's in the midst of a fraud investigation as we speak for Trump U.
