Donald Trump is the president who is a billionaire.

While many U.S. presidents have accumulated significant wealth throughout their lives, reaching billionaire status is a rare achievement. A billionaire is defined as an individual with a net worth of at least $1,000 million (or $1 billion) in U.S. dollars.

Presidential Net Worth Highlights

Analyzing the peak net worth of various U.S. presidents, adjusted for inflation to 2022 U.S. dollars, reveals a clear distinction. The following table showcases the peak net worth of some notable presidents:

President Peak Net Worth (millions of 2022 US$)
Donald Trump 7,100
George Washington 707
Thomas Jefferson 284
Barack Obama 250

From this data, it is evident that Donald Trump's peak estimated net worth of 7,100 million U.S. dollars significantly exceeds the one-billion-dollar threshold, making him a billionaire. In contrast, while figures like George Washington possessed considerable wealth for their time, their inflation-adjusted peak net worth falls below the billion-dollar mark.
