Top Trump

Following Carly's post about fictional and frugal billionaires, here is evidence of Donald Trump's largesse: a $10,000 tip on a bill for $82.27. I bet the waiter couldn't believe his luck. This isn't the first time the quiffed one (photo, left, from askmen.com) has been generous with his money, when he appeared on Deal or No Deal in the US a contestant won just $25 and Trump reportedly wrote a cheque for the contestant's son for $25,000. The Donald has even been know to hand greenbacks out on the street. Bizarrely some people are irritated by all this generosity and have voted him the most annoying money personality.

But it's not just money the billionaire is generous with, he gives out business advice too, if you'd like to earn as much as Mr T check out Trump University's money making seminars, or The Trump Blog  which is packed full of ways to boost your career and make more dosh - in today's post he tells us "accomplished athletes have great discipline and businesspeople should too."

At the other end of the fiscal scale is Joe Martin, whose bank wrote and told him that he was overdrawn by $211,010,028,257,303 and he was now considered a risky customer. His bank manager blamed a "word processing error".
