Total failures haven't been in the Forbes 400, for several decades!
Or earned c$220 million for The Apprentice.
Currently ranked 259 by Forbes (in terms of America's richest), he bought the Trump Building - on Wall Street - for $1 million, a few years ago.
It's now valued at over $500 million.
Not bad - for a total failure...
honey!oh sugar sugar.

If he persuaded the Russians to help him, and he got to be president,I would call that a success.

Trump and Boris wouldn't be on my celebrity mediocrities list.
Apart from becoming the leader of their respective countries, both were very successful earlier.
DT as a property developer and TV personality. Boris as a quasi-academic, linguist and editor/journalist.

it's the era of mediocrity.
In some ways it's quite interesting as in so many "reality TV" shows...I mean I actually like watching two ladies scolding dirty filthy Chavs because of their ghastly homes littered with trash and then helping them clean it up.
I'm very fond of The Voice and especially the European versions where great entertainers are discovered (not sure if they have a career though).
Alternatively shows like I'm A Celeb etc leave me cold.
Mediocrity is The Buzz word of the 21st Century.
It even produces faux personalities like Boris Johnson and Donald Trump.
