Post-presidency income shifted decisively into endorsement and real-estate cash flow. We modelled the foundation's 2025 disclosures alongside disclosed property holdings and partner-brand fees.
A celebrity-led venture fund with a $25K minimum check size. We talked to three of the first five LP commitments and reviewed the term sheet for one of the first portfolio companies.
