Decided to become president? Be prepared that under a microscope they will examine not only your personal life, but also your children, parents, friends, enemies, relatives and even pets. For journalists, the current head of the United States, Donald Trump, is sometimes less interesting than his daughter Ivanka, who launched a violent activity, using the influence of the pope.
The president’s beloved daughter is not just a media personality. She is no less than a political adviser to her father. How well deserved is her position, and where does she make money with such a busy schedule? We will try to answer this question together with American journalists. They are watching more closely than others this unexpected political figure.
Personal condition
Ivanka Trump (Ivana Marie Trump), even without taking into account family savings, is more than a wealthy lady. Her personal fortune is estimated at 300 million dollars. Of course, compared with the capital of a billionaire father, this is a trifle. But compared to my income, she is an oligarch.
Although the girl has changed many professions in her 37 years, everyone knows her as a former fashion model. The change of work went to Ivanka. She talked a lot with different people, accumulated connections and experience. After the modeling business, she took up commerce and even writing.
Career
Until 2005, Ivanka led an independent business, and later received the position of vice president in the Trump family company. In 2007, together with Dynamic Diamond, she created her own line of jewelry, Ivanka Trump Fine Jewelry. Precious gold items encrusted with diamonds were not sold anywhere, but in Manhattan. In 2016, the flagship boutique moved to the “family skyscraper” of Trump Tower, and luxury goods under its own brand can be bought in many countries: USA, Canada, United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait.
By this time, the range of Ivanka Trump's lineup has expanded. The collection was supplemented with fashionable items: shoes, clothes, women’s handbags, various accessories. Journalists later found out that many collections were produced in Asian countries at little-known factories that used cheap labor.
Disappointment in business
However, it cannot be said that the fashion business was successful. Initially, in 2016, regulatory scarfs recalled branded scarves for sale because they were highly flammable. Later, environmental activists launched a campaign to discredit the brand for the use of natural rabbit fur in some models. In the winter of 2017, large department stores Neiman Marcus and Nordstrom refused to sell Ivanka Trump products due to "weak sales."
In the end, in the conditions of unhealthy interest of journalists in their products, Ivanka in the summer of 2018 announced the closure of the retail business. She motivated this by continuing the career of public policy.
For the sake of an idea
Ivanka Trump loves politics even more than her father-president. She often accompanies him on trips, meets famous people, attends boring events for others, but not for her. In a word, she enjoys her position.
It is curious that Ivanka works as a volunteer adviser. That is, her salary is not paid for it. I am sure the lady would also pay extra for the opportunity to feel like an influential politician. We should not forget that the lion's share of the costs of travel, accommodation, food and other needs are paid by taxpayers. Why not take advantage of the prevailing circumstances?
In general, Ivanka leaves the impression of a smart woman.A bachelor's degree in economics from the University of Pennsylvania, graduated with honors, says a lot. Is she useful as a diplomat? Of course, as a "dove of peace." A person who is little responsible for what, but makes a pleasant impression on others. Or maybe she is a “gray cardinal” and much more influential than we think? Who knows who knows. By the way, Ivanka has access to classified materials.
