Page 98 - How To Get Rich

United Cerebral Palsy, as I’m on the advisory board. One of the biggest
perks of being financially successful is being able to be generous. I like
giving money to good causes like United Way and the Police Athletic
League. It really is a great feeling every time I can be of help, and, for the

most part, that’s a private part of my life. Some of my charities are public
knowledge, and some of them aren’t.
2:30P.M. Robin Leach and his team are here for an interview. Robin is
well known for a reason. We have a great time, and it’s a job well and
quickly done.
3:15P.M. I have a meeting with Carolyn Kepcher, executive vice
president and director of Trump National Golf Club in Briarcliff. We are

building some magnificent villas on the grounds, and there are a lot of
details to attend to. Fortunately, both of us are perfectionists, and our
meetings never have to be long.
3:30P.M. I take a call from David Schner, president ofLeaders
magazine. I’d been interviewed a few months back and we still keep in
touch.

Craig Semandl, the director of Trump National Golf Club, Los
Angeles, calls in. He gives me an update on what’s happening, and we go
over some details. I will visit California later this month to see the
progress for myself. It helps to have people you can trust when you’re
three thousand miles away.
This is something that still amazes me: Here’s another person
requesting my autograph on the March 1990 issue ofPlayboy magazine,

which featured an interview and a cover photo of me. To this day, thirteen
years later, I receive several requests a month for my autograph on this
issue, and, granted, the girl I’m photographed with is a beauty, but I never
thought this interview would remain so popular with people who follow
my career. I’ll have to reread it one of these days. Meanwhile, I sign the

cover and it’s sent back to the owner, and I sign a few books that have been
sent in as well.
I make a call to Tiffany, my youngest daughter, who is giving me an
update on her latest activities. She has enough going on for five people.
She must take after me. She is excited about her upcoming birthday and
her plans to have a party aboard theQueen Mary in Long Beach,
California.
