Barron Trump just kicked off his second year at NYU’s Stern Business School, but he’s already ditched the New York scene to head back to Washington and crash with his folks at the White House. Even though he’s still hitting the books, money’s the last thing this kid has to worry about. A fresh scoop from Forbes spills the beans on just how loaded Donald Trump’s youngest son really is.
The Trumps have always been swimming in cash, no surprise there. In his second stint as president, Donald and Melania jumped into the crypto game with their own coin, which got a ton of flak from the pros. Seems like it’s a family affair—last year, Donald let slip that his son was deep into the crypto world too.Family games
“Barron’s got this stuff down pat,” Trump said back in September. “He’s just a young guy, but he talks about his wallet all the time. He’s got like four of ‘em or something, and I’m over here asking, ‘What’s a wallet even mean in this context?’”
Donald himself reportedly raked in a cool billion from crypto, and it looks like Barron’s riding that wave to millionaire status. According to Forbes, the family’s World Liberty Financial outfit dropped a “gold paper”—basically their spin on a white paper—naming Barron as a “Web3 ambassador.” Don Jr. and Eric got the same gig, and they’re all tagged as co-founders on the site.

A financial breakdown hit the web recently, showing Donald with a 52.5% personal slice, and some unnamed family member holding 22.5%. Forbes figures if the brothers are divvying up the leftovers, that’d leave each with about 7.5%. With the project pulling in at least $550 million from token sales, Barron and his siblings could be looking at roughly $39 million apiece.

But hold up—Uncle Sam always wants a cut, right? Yahoo Finance crunches the numbers and says taxes could eat up around $15 million of that haul.
$39 million is no chump change, but it’s peanuts next to the real bombshell about Barron’s wealth. A new Forbes piece from September 22 dishes that the kid was knee-deep in crypto way before his dad jumped in. Now, at 19, his stash is pegged at a whopping $150 million.
“Forbes estimates the 19-year-old NYU sophomore has cashed in about $80 million from token sales so far, and he’s sitting on roughly 2.3 billion locked-up tokens. We’re discounting those big time since they’re not tradable yet, but if prices hold steady, he could offload them for $525 million once they unlock,” the article explains.
