Barron Trump's astonishing net worth has been revealed as the president's younger son became richer than First Lady Melania Trump at the age of 19.
The teenager, son of Donald and Melania, is attending NYU's Stern School of Business, which is seen as one of America's top business schools.
Barron recently moved from Manhattan to attend classes at NYU’s campus in the capital so he could be closer to his family in the White House.
But while Barron may be continuing with his education, he has a massive net worth behind him if the whole university thing doesn't work out.

President Trump credits his teenage son with helping him connect with younger voters at last year's election, while Barron has also shown his dad a thing or two about cryptocurrency.
Barron co-founded the crypto company World Liberty Financial, alongside his father and older brothers in 2024.
And after Trump won the presidential election, World Liberty Financial skyrocketed to the point where it had added over $1.5 billion to the Trump family bank account.
10 percent belongs to Barron - meaning the teenager has a net worth of a staggering $150 million.
Following Trump's election win, crypto entrepreneur Justin Sun revealed his intentions to invest a whopping $75 million and sales began to increase even further as a result.
World Liberty Financial had sold a whopping $675 million worth of tokens as of August this year, while they have also struck deals across industries, including healthcare company called Alt5 Sigma.
Such success means Barron has a net worth of three times his mother's, who sits at a still impressive $50 million, largely through her modelling career.
Forbes reports the net worth is broken down by $38m on the World Liberty tokens deal, $34m on the stablecoin known as USD1, $41m as a result of the Alt5 Sigma deal, plus tokens worth a staggering $45 million.
While Barron is making huge bucks, reports emerged earlier this year that the teenager had been finding it a struggle to make new friends and was coming across as 'awkward'.
Despite that, the POTUS claimed Barron is doing well at NYU, after Kai, the eldest daughter of Donald Trump Jr., asked him during a golfing session: "How's Barron doing at NYU?"
"Good, he’s doing good," Trump immediately responded. "He’s a good boy. He loves you."
The president continued: "He said, ‘Say hello to Kai, dad'. I said, ‘Why don't you come out and watch [them play golf]?’ He said – She's so cute."
