I make a great deal of money from 40 Wall St.. Aside from owning the most beautiful building in lower Manhattan, I have the added attraction of owning a particularly lucrative one.
I was in Moscow and I will tell you - you can get along with those people and get along with them well. You can make deals with those people. Obama can't.
All my life I've dealt with politicians. I know politicians better than anybody. And honestly, if you can't deal with a politician, there's something wrong with you.
Other people paint beautifully on canvas or write wonderful poetry. I like making deals. Preferably big ones.
I don't make deals for the money. I've got enough, much more than I'll ever need. I do it to do it.
I don't know one Jewish person that doesn't want to have a deal, a good deal, a proper deal, but a really good deal.
I've dealt with politicians my entire life. You never make a bad deal with a politician. They're so easy.
If you have to lie, cheat, and steal, you're just not doing it right, ... My career is a model of tough, fair dealing and fantastic success - without shortcuts, without breaking the law.
The golf facet of my life doesn't go with the rest of my life, which is a rough-and-tumble life. I work in real estate development, which is the toughest business, and I do it in the toughest city. I deal with ruthless people.
You learn their honesty, you learn their competitiveness. You learn a lot about a person. It's not that they have to sink the putt and there's a great deal of talent involved - but you do learn about how competitive a person is on the golf course, and frankly, how honest.
Everything I do in life is framed through the view of a businessman. That's my instinct. If I go into a pharmacy to buy shaving cream, then I'm going to look for the best deal on shaving cream.
I think that you are going to have to spend a great deal of money in order to get elected, ... especially coming out of the Reform Party, which has a big disadvantage, because it hasn't been there very long. If I spend the money, I think I could win.
I'm very anxious to see who the fans choose for their favorite finalist. Their decision could have a big effect on my ultimate decision.
In business, when things aren't working it's time to mix it up - The Apprentice
