Hot Wireless Telecom Stocks To Watch Right Now

You've probably heard his popular catchphrase, "You're fired!"

The Donald has long been a bombastic figure on the American financial scene. He is a well-known real estate magnate, and he is almost as famous for his companies' bankruptcies as he is for his companies' lavish real estate projects.  
 
Through it all, however, Donald Trump has shown that he knows what he's doing. He's been a wily businessman, and his real estate development projects have been, overall, fairly successful.

But how did he get his start? And what does he think would make a great investment right now?

The Trump Secret
We hear a lot about Donald Trump's real estate empire. Yes, he's built it up to something truly lucrative. (Forbes puts his worth at $3.2 billion.) However, he didn't get his start from nothing.

So what's his secret?

Like so many successful and wealthy investors and businessmen, Trump had rich parents to help him get in the game.
