Comparisons to Paris Hilton

While the media have often compared Trump to Paris Hilton, heiress to the Hilton Hotel fortune, Trump has objected to the comparison, explaining, “I work 13-hour days for my money,” in an interview with the "London Express" in 2007, and “I bought my house from my father — I have a mortgage, you know.” Trump asserted, “I think we are totally different individuals... If I were to go off the rails and become this party kid, I would not be able to afford my lifestyle. I’ve never had a sense of entitlement. I saw how hard my father worked for his money and it was always made very clear to me that things wouldn’t just be given to me.” [ [http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/17031897/ Walls, Jeannette; "Ivanka Trump: I'm no Paris Hilton party girl"; MSNBC; February 22, 2007.] ]
