Jared Kushner, senior adviser to the forty-fifth president of the United States and concurrently his son-in-law, was already a businessman, multimillionaire, developer and publisher even before his wife's father became the head of state. He achieved all this thanks to his parents and his own talents.
Biography
The future businessman was born in the American city of Livingston, Montana, in 1981. His family is rooted in Poland and Bolorussia, although by religion their family is Orthodox Jews. During World War II, Jared's ancestors fled overseas. Then, moving from country to country, we drove to America. It was in 1949, when the war had already ended, but the Kushners no longer wanted to go anywhere - they settled in Livingston.
The entire Kushner family is very talented businessmen. Jared's uncle Murray Kushner is the owner of the Kushner Real Estate Group. He has a younger brother Joshua and two sisters: Nicole and Dara.
After graduating from high school, Jared entered Harvard and graduated in 2003. And then he received another degree with an MBA from New York University in 2007.
Even then, he worked in the development company of his father, Charles Kushner. And during his student days, he managed to make more than $ 20 million in his position. More experienced businessmen noted that the guy had an entrepreneurial streak and worked with him as an experienced person. Of course, the father's authority played an important role in this success. When Kushner Sr. retired, Jared took his place.
Career
After graduating from university, Jared took up the development business with even greater zeal and began to turn even more profitable deals.
The young businessman was doing well, and in 2008 he took over as chief executive of Kushner Properties Corporation. This meant one thing: even larger financial transactions, including with residential and office buildings.
He was doing so well that he bought a skyscraper on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan. It is just a few minutes' walk from the famous Trump Tower, a skyscraper designed and built by the 45th President of the United States, Donald Trump. It is there that one of his residences is located - luxurious apartments, all in golden color.
Probably, you cannot do business and do without scandals. The Kushner family was more than once involved in various not very beautiful cases. In 2004, Jared's father even went to jail for two years under various articles, one of which was for tax evasion. And his offspring, according to journalists, ended up in both universities where he studied only after generous financial injections into the funds of these universities.
However, during his tenure as director of Kushner Properties, Jared was not such a well-known person in the United States. And when Trump became president, and his entire family got into the camera lenses, it turned out that Donald had a son-in-law, and that he was a very successful businessman.
And here it was not without a scandal: journalists revealed Kushner's connection with Jehovah's Witnesses and his transactions in the sale of real estate to this religious organization. The businessman was saved only by the fact that he always behaves quite modestly, does not say too much and behaves very diplomatically.
In addition, he has his own newspaper "New York Observer", with the help of which he could influence public opinion and direct it in the right direction. By the way, in this case, Jared showed his entrepreneurial talents: the newspaper became very popular after he bought it, and its popularity is still growing.
And when Trump decided to run for president, Kushner was the main one who determined the course of election advertising, Internet strategy, and he himself hired the right employees for this campaign. We can say that it is largely thanks to him that the father-in-law is now sitting in the presidential chair.
Trump did not remain in debt: he took Gerad to himself as a senior adviser, thereby expressing his complete confidence. Some in the White House have the exact opposite opinion, but this does not prevent the president's son-in-law from staying in office.
And as a senior adviser to the President of the United States, he is engaged in active political activities: he makes friendly visits, meets with leaders of countries, and often visits the Middle East. He is also the curator of the plan for a Palestinian-Israeli settlement.
condition
Jared Kushner is a representative of one of the wealthiest American clans, as well as one of the most influential, and this is understandable. Forbes estimates his fortune at $ 1.8 billion, and a significant part of the wealth is real estate - commercial and residential. In addition to the skyscraper on Fifth Avenue, Jared owns the Puck Building in Lower Manhattan, the AT&T building in Chicago, and other structures.
Personal life
Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump met at a business lunch in 2007. The young people somehow immediately understood each other and started dating.
And when Jared made an offer to his future wife, he was generous with a gift: on Ivanka's hand, journalists saw a ring with a 5, 22 carat stone.
Before the wedding, Ivanka converted to Judaism, and the young people performed a wedding ritual in the tradition of Orthodox Judaism.
Now the Kushner family has three children: daughter Arabella, sons Joseph and Theodore. Ivanka maintains a blog on Instagram and often uploads photos of her children and husband to it.
They live in luxurious apartments, decorated with paintings worth $ 25 million. These are canvases by famous artists, as well as works by young contemporary masters of the brush.
