The following question was submitted to "Ask Donald Trump" by a Trump University member.
Question:
There are many markets in real estate, what is your opinion about choosing the right type of market and how do you do that?
My Response:
The most important thing is to know your territory. I am successful in real estate but I still do my homework, particularly if it’s an area I’m not familiar with. When I decided to develop in Manhattan, I spent a great deal of time walking around, to familiarize myself with the neighborhoods because I was new to the city. Do not take anything for granted. Stay close to what you know and venture into new areas with due caution.

"Stay close to what you know"..... this is what brings us the confidense and feeling security. You can not for example move to another village and begin to sell something there without knowing if the people really need the stuff you are selling. Even it feels boring to check all the little details it could be your benefit in a long run.
"Do not take anything for granted. Stay close to what you know and venture into new areas with due caution." Your advice along with knowing your territory and doing your homework is very, very wise and excellent council.
Trump, some interesting information was discovered on the Internet today. Your honorable father Fred and I have the same name: "Christ." Fred Christ Trump. Fascinating. I am accepting this honor as true.
Your son Eric, who is the Exec. VP of Development and Acquisitions in your organization, and I, also have the same name (Eric/Erech). This I have known for some time, but it is worth mentioning here. Additionally it came to light today that Eric has the "Eric Trump foundation for St. Jude Hospital" which helps children with life-threatening and debilitating diseases. Congratulations to him! Plus the American Academy of Hospitality Sciences bestowed the International Star Diamond Award to Eric’s foundation. The International Star Diamond Award is the most prestigious emblem of achievement and quality in the world. Trump, you no doubt are extremely proud of your son Eric and your son Donald Jr. as well.
It seems that Ivanka may be getting married (if she isn‘t already). As any intelligent man would say who appreciates brains, strength and beauty and seeks the best for himself: "Say it is not true!" But if it is true, We wish Ivanka forever happiness and success in her marriage and new venture.
You so eloquently wrote in your blog on 8/11/09: "One effective technique [of keeping your fate in your own hands] is to make sure you define yourself versus allowing others to define you. They will limit you when instead you should see yourself as limitless when it comes to possibilities."
We believe in miracles. The evil rabbinic interpretations about Adam and Eve has defined the Jewish (and Christian) woman as evil for centuries. Trump, that sexist interpretation of Adam and Eve is the main subliminal cause of the escalating depression, violence and murder of women so prevalent in today’s society as shown on the nightly news…..night after night. Day after day. It seems as if boyfriends and husbands are killing their women and wives every hour on the hour. And they are! The majority of female deaths are not on the news.
This female holocaust will continue to escalate until sexist Judaism and Christianity (and Islam) are destroyed with God’s Truth. That’s Our mission. The male rulers of any religion define their women. The sexist, bigoted rulers of Judaism and Christianity have defined their women as evil and the cause of the "Fall of man." And the religious woman, no matter how poor and uneducated or rich and educated, helplessly accepts and believes and worships this evil designation given to her. "As he [or she] thinks in his heart, so is he.." (Prov. 23:7). Studying the rabbis’ chauvinistic interpretations of the Adam and Eve story will give Ivanka a clearer understanding of the sexist essence of Judaism (and Christianity) as she adheres to Judaism’s system of belief. That is, if what We read is true about her conversion to Judaism.
Now in Our case, We truly love all women. We know the Truth of their righteousness. "True" Love will conquer all. God is True "Love" (Hebrew "Hesed." Greek "Agape.").
Trump, the Miss Universe Pageant was splendid. The judges got it right as usual. Miss Venezuela, the new Miss Universe, was outstanding with her intelligent presentation and amazing gorgeousness.
