Barron Trump’s $150M fortune beats Melania’s wealth

At the tender age of 20, Barron Trump is estimated to have amassed a staggering $150 million fortune, placing him ahead of his mother, Melania Trump, according to Forbes estimates. This significant wealth largely stems from the Trump family's cryptocurrency venture, World Liberty Financial (WLFI), valued at over $1.5 billion by Forbes.

Barron, listed as a co-founder and DeFi visionary, is believed to hold a 10% stake, translating to an estimated $150 million. In addition to his crypto holdings, Barron has also ventured into the energy drink business, serving as a director of SOLLOS, a Palm Beach-based yerba mate company. His other business, a 12-pack Pineapple + Coconut drink, sells for $39, but no public revenue figures are available, limiting its direct impact on the $150 million estimate.

Despite this, Barron's wealth still surpasses that of his mother, whose estimated fortune stands at about $20 million.
