He acquired a piece of property in Atlantic City, and along with this all the required permits to build a casino. At this point Holiday Inn Corporation offered a partnership in the build. The two hundred million complex opened in 1984 as Harrah’s at Trump Plaza. Ironically he bought out Holiday Inn and the casino was renamed Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino (“Donald Trump”). “For Trump every project had to be the best of its kind, and he usually combined sharp instincts and perfect timing with ruthless negotiations” (Shepard 84). Despite all the success in his real estate business, in 1990 the real estate market dropped dramatically. This drop reduced the value of Trump’s real estate empire from the estimated worth of two billion dollars to five hundred million! Trump had to rely on loans just to keep his real estate from collapsing. Despite all the criticism Trump took because of the hefty loans, his real estate empire bounced back to a worth of at least two and a half billion dollars by 1997.

Donald Trump can be appreciated for his cunning business savvy and an ability to at various times throughout his career, make it big. By co-creating this reality show with Mark Burnett, not only has he capitalized on the public's desire to fantasize about (and for a precious few, compete for) achieving a high-profile, financially lucrative career as a business mogul, he has also brought to the mainstream audience a heated, emotional and stimulating debate about something that we all seem to have an opinion on: what it takes to be a great leader.
Donald Trump has been a bad influence to the United States that doesn’t deserve to be president. The entire thing he has done during his running doesn’t show that is able to be president. Trump is an arrogant person that doesn’t deserve to be president and doesn’t deserve to be able to run a country; he is acting like a child he is not mature to run for

In the midst of one of the most controversial presidential elections in history, both political parties are struggling to prove that their candidate is the best choice. Clinton and Trump’s disapproval ratings are very low, but one has to ask, is there really a lesser evil to choose from? While Clinton has had her own fair share of past discrepancies, Trump’s track record proves much more troublesome. Donald Trump has proven to be an untrustworthy presidential candidate because of his misogynistic actions, his racial bias, and his corrupt business history.
The decision for success, for Trump, is work hard and be determined and you can achieve your goals. He has shown this hard working mentality as he was a businessman.

Reflecting on his life, he has faced many challenges and overcame them all.

I think there was a big difference between the money they spent on it one was way more than the other. “It was around 150 billion dollars for the most expensive house” (The Most Expensive House in the Universe par-1) 150 billion dollars is a lot of money for the most expensive house. “The building of the skyscraper represents an investments of spending 50,000,000 on the Empire State Building” ( When the Empire State Building was New). I thought it was more expensive for the Empire State Building instead of the the house.
Donald John Trump is a realtor and a businessman that is running for the 2016 presidential election. He was born on June 14th, 1946 in Queens, New York. As a child, Trump was rather energetic and aggressive; so when he was 13 his parents sent him to the New York Military Academy. He graduated from the military academy in 1964.

Psychology covers a huge field and one interesting aspect of it is personality. Personality by itself involves various issues. Some aspects are Psychoanalytic, Ego, Biological, Behaviorist, Cognitive, Trait, and Humanistic. Different types of behaviors are amazing to learn about, mainly the behavior therapy, collective behavior, crime and punishment, and Social behavior and peer acceptance in children. I chose Behaviorism over the other aspects because I believe behavior determines human personality and is very interesting. You can tell what one is by his behavior, and one behaves according to what place he has in society. By doing this paper on Behavior, I hope to get a better understanding of, if behavior develops a personality or if personality guides behavior. I also see behaviorism helping me in the future with my personal and professional career by understanding human personality and behavior better than I do. No matter what your major is, if you can determine one's personality by his behavior you can really get your work done from that person and understand the better than you would otherwise. This person could be your employee or your employer. Behavior Therapy Behavior therapy is the application of experimentally derived principles of learning to the treatment of psychological disorders. The concept derives primarily from work of Russian psychologist Ivan Pavlov. Behavior-therapy techniques differ from psychiatric methods, particularly psychoanalysis, in that they are predominately symptom (behavior) oriented and shows little or no concern for unconscious processes, achieving new insight, or effecting fundamental personality change. The U.S. psychologist B.F. Skinner, who worked with mental patients in a Massachusetts State hospital, popularized behavior therapy. From his work in animal learning, Skinner found that the establishment and extinction of responses can be determined by the way reinforces, or rewards, are given. The pattern of reward giving, both in time and frequency, is known as a schedule of reinforcement. The gradual change in behavior in approximation of the desired result is known as shaping. More recent developments in behavior therapy emphasize the adaptive nature of cognitive processes. Behavior-therapy techniques have been applied with some success to such disturbances as enuresis (bed-wetting), tics, phobias, stutteri...
