Donald Trump's recently released financial disclosures for 2024 reveal a vast business empire generating substantial income from diverse sources, including golf properties, brand licensing, royalties, and digital assets. In doing so, the disclosures show the extent of financial returns he’s netted from every sector of the economy. His overall receipts for 2024 are about Rs 51,750 crore.
Adding it all up, Trump’s three Florida golf properties — located in Jupiter, Doral, and West Palm Beach — made at least $217.7 million. His villa-style Trump Mar-a-Lago private club with its media circus had a lot to do with his moolah making. Of course, these properties remain significant cash cows for the ex-president.
Outside of golf, the president brought in more than $26 million in royalties on products ranging from neckties to bottled water to sports apparel. His global brand licensing agreements turned out to be covetable moneymakers, raking in more than $36 million. Brand licensing agreements in Dubai totalled Rs 1,378 crore compared to Rs 862 crore in India.
Trump’s entry into the crypto market and NFT space only strengthened his earning power. His NFT collection netted him $1.16 million, and his forays into cryptocurrency were lucrative. NFT art sold very well for none other than the U.S.’s own First Lady Melania Trump. She received over $216,700 from her own NFT collection in licensing fees.
Internationally, Trump’s golf resorts in Ireland and Scotland brought in millions. The Irish resorts brought in €19 million, and the Scottish resorts marshalling £28.7 million. Overall, his profits from foreign golf courses and hotel properties were around $38.9 million.
Individual stock equity investments by Trump are limited to Rs 21.5 crore. These investments are an insignificant part of his overall financial portfolio.
