Former President Donald Trump’s net worth has been hovering around $2.5 billion since last year, according to Forbes’ estimate, down from an estimated $4.5 billion when he announced his candidacy in 2015.
Trump left office in January and has since set up the “Office of the Former President,” but he has not yet announced a new business venture.
Trump was No. 121 on Forbes’ list of wealthiest Americans when he began his 2016 presidential campaign.
Forbes also found that Trump’s net worth declined in 2020 after hitting $3.1 billion in 2019, as the coronavirus pandemic and subsequent economic recession wreaked havoc on the industries in which he holds his biggest assets. Several entities cut ties with the Trump Organization in the aftermath of the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.
