I have a reputation in my professional work, negotiating contracts, where I've gone into deals where other people haven't closed the deal, and I've been able to get it done.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I've done a lot of deals, and I'm skilled at negotiating, managing personalities, and getting parties to the table.
I've been making deals all my life.
I've been offered a few professional contracts... in the hundreds and thousands.
In my role as executive vice president of development and acquisitions for the Trump Organization and founder and CEO of my own lifestyle brand, I've had a lot of practice negotiating.
I'm a transactional lawyer; I negotiate all types of things, but with a particular focus in software licenses.
I'm not big with negotiating.
My biggest deal is I just want to do my job.
I figured, 'If I ever get offered a chance to sign a deal, I'll only do it if I got to do it how I want.' So my contract is structured in such a way that I'm really protected.
If I'm on the board of any company where there's an offer that comes in, I want to negotiate.
I have always been an honest trader. I come from a school of traders where there was honour in the deal. No contracts, just a handshake and that's it, done. That's the way I prefer to do business but it's not always possible these days, sadly.
