Congratulations to the Winners of the Ask Donald J. Trump Contest!

Our recent Ask Donald J. Trump Contest invited members of the Trump University community to submit questions to our Chairman, Donald J. Trump.

The response was terrific. In fact, selecting 10 winners from the 564 entries was a real challenge. It was so difficult that our judging committee picked a group of finalists and asked Mr. Trump to select the winners from among them.  

He did. His winners have now been chosen and informed of their wins by email. They are . . .

  • Joe Comeau

  • Claire Huckfeldt

  • James Kayui Li

  • William Neder

  • Vinay Menon

  • Alejandro Pantoja

  •  Rajesh Shakya

  •  Mohamed Shedou

  •  Ivo Verhaegh

  •  Jason Wang

 You can read both their questions and Mr. Trump’s answers here on the Trump blog during the next few weeks.

Congratulations to the winners! And many thanks to all of you who took part in the contest.  

Michael Sexton is President of Trump University.

Dear Trump U., Congradulations to the ten winners of the contest. I look forward to reading your questions and the answers to them. I am already preparing my list of questions for the next contest. Thank you Trump U. for your time and consideration. Cedric Bell, charitablechildcare@yahoo.com

Wow! How nice it is to see my name among the winners :) Thanks very much Mr Trump for selecting my question(s).

Shortly after I read my name in this cute list, I wrote a post (initially intended to be brief, but came out really long!) about this winning in my blog, it's here:

http://shedouenglish.blogspot.com/2007/10/winning.html

However, I didn't get any emails yet notifying me of my being among the winners. So I wish I'd get instructions on how to enjoy my course at TU.

And at last, I have a suggestion. Or may be it's both a suggestion and a request. Let's also add: a WISH. Since Mr Trump sees greed as a good thing in the workplace, and therefore in life in general, greed in the meaning of always looking for more and for better, then I would like to practice this type of being greedy: Is there a way the award to the winners can be more tnan a course; could it also be a personal meeting between Donald Trump and the ten winners, in Trump Tower? I see this as a good idea. I know it's only a contest about asking questions...

But isn't the ability to ask the right questions essential to success in business and in life, or in the business of life?!!

I would love to know that this idea is to be considered and communicated to Mr Trump.

Thanks very much.

Dear Mr. Trump and All Who Posted Before Me,

I also would like to say thank you again. That was a great challenge and exercise to get us thinking about the building blocks of success.

For those who didn't know, I submitted about 45 questions with a broad range of topics. My mother used to say, "You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink". Mr. Trump has led us to water, and I'm drinking (my course)! I hope everyone seizes the opportunity to study at Trump U. ;)

Best Regards,

CH
