Former U.S. President Donald Trump has experienced one of the most profitable years of his life, with his net worth now reaching a record $7.3 billion, up from $4.3 billion in 2024 when he was still a presidential candidate.

This $3 billion increase as of September 1, 2025, propelled Trump 118 places up the Forbes 400 list of America’s richest individuals, placing him at 201st in 2025.
No other U.S. president in history has leveraged the office to amass such immense personal wealth, with cryptocurrency emerging as a primary source of this financial growth.
How Trump’s Wealth Increased
Forbes highlighted the main components of Trump’s wealth that saw the largest gains over the past year:
Meme coins: Approximately $710 million in profits.
Liquid assets: Increased by around $660 million.
Licensing and management operations: Grew by $410 million.
Additionally, Trump settled multiple lawsuits against media outlets and tech companies, earning about $470 million. Stablecoins added roughly $240 million, while the “World Liberty Financial” tokens contributed $340 million.
Trump and Cryptocurrencies
Alongside his three children, Trump launched a cryptocurrency venture in September 2024 named World Liberty Financial. In January 2025, just days before his return to the White House, he introduced a “meme coin,” adding hundreds of millions to his cash reserves.
After taking office, Trump rolled back cryptocurrency regulations and signed legislation favoring the industry, further increasing his personal gains. World Liberty Financial has sold approximately $1.4 billion worth of cryptocurrency so far, with a Trump family-owned company receiving around 75% of these sales—over $1 billion.
Restructuring Trump’s Business Portfolio
Trump carefully allocated his funds amid high-risk investment trends:
Paid off $114 million in debt for the troubled 40 Wall Street skyscraper.
Obtained two small loans totaling roughly $15 million secured against properties in New York and Florida.
Invested in municipal and corporate bonds.
Trump’s balance sheet is now stronger than ever, with liabilities of about $1.1 billion and assets valued at $8.4 billion, including $1.1 billion in liquid holdings.
In August, New York appellate judges dismissed a nearly $500 million fraud fine. Real estate licensing operations, previously dormant, regained momentum, with new deals in Saudi Arabia, Vietnam, Romania, India, and Qatar. Revenues grew nearly 580% in 2024, reaching $45 million and increasing business value by $400 million.
Trump’s U.S. golf courses and clubs also flourished, with profits rising nearly 30% in 2024, adding roughly $325 million to his net worth.
With this influx of capital, Trump may soon resume his first passion—construction. He and his family have long planned small villages at golf resorts in Scotland and Florida. Now, with access to the White House restored, he has the liquidity to pursue nearly any venture he desires.
