While it cost more than $1 billion to build, Trump had approximately $750 million in debt on the property and had to generate at least $1 million per day to pay the $100 million in interest to break even. Despite the debt on the property, Trump was still bullish about the casino.
“I think that it will be very successful,” Trump said during the opening. “I thought it would be a tremendous boost for Atlantic City and I think it will be. It’s just what Atlantic City needs.”
