Will Trump’s $50B SoftBank Deal Have A Surprise Twist Like The Carrier Deal? (TWEET/VIDEO)

Many people claim to have voted for President-elect, Donald Trump, for what they consider his consummate business and financial acumen. After a meeting with Trump, the owner of SoftBank in Japan, who also happens to be the richest man in Japan, committed to invest approximately $50 billion dollars in the United States, which Trump claims will ultimately create 50,000 jobs.

Trump announced the deal on his favorite platform – Twitter, after his meeting with SoftBank’s CEO Masayoshi Son.

Trump is known to embellish things. However, during a media interview after their meeting in New York, Son confirmed the deal, calling Trump his friend.

Son owns eighty percent of Sprint and other technology firms. Foxconn, the company that makes the iPhone, was listed on the document and quickly shown on the screen during the interview. Son also mentioned the deal would not have happened if Trump wasn’t elected.

But what’s behind the lucrative deal? Only time will tell. Only God knows what Trump has promised SoftBank in return.

This may sound good, but don’t forget about the ugly, ugly Carrier deal!

While many applaud the recent deal that Trump has managed to maneuver with SoftBank, others are still squirming over cabinet appointments and Trump’s lack of political experience, which seemingly causes trouble for him.

His business dealings over the years have been considered shady. He recently settled the Trump University fraud case for $25 Million dollars, and has had numerous personal bankruptcies.

Others are upset at the idea that Trump uses Twitter as a means of communication, allegedly due to his distrust of media, although he shines brightly on camera when he feels accomplished.

His Twitter profile fluctuates from boastful to defensive based on his ever changing mood, and how he believes the public is responding to him, which some consider the scariest part of his soon-official position.

Son, during his media interview, was just as boastful and elated as Trump, which explains the friendship. He revealed his ownership of companies and told how he recently paid $32 billion dollars for full ownership of the U.K.-based chip designer company, ARM Holdings.

Son acquired his wealth through investment deals in both Japan and China, and created a $100 billion dollar investment fund. He purchased controlling interest in Sprint for $21.6 billion dollars.

After the announcement of the lucrative deal, Sprint’s shares rose 4.5 percent. For those who are only concerned with the financial acumen of the President-elect, this is a good news. Others; however, are still worried.
