Barron Trump is now 20 years old. President Trump’s youngest son and the only one he shares with first lady Melania Trump, turned 20 on March 20. And his family reportedly celebrated him with a small party—one that allegedly did not include his older siblings, Don Jr., Eric, or Ivanka. But what’s next for Barron?

People reports that the youngest Trump is preparing for his “next phase” of life, and he’s going to be emulating his father. “Barron has inherited his father’s interest in making money and a name for himself, and is well on the way to becoming an entrepreneur,” a source told the outlet. “He is smart, focused and resourceful. He is always looking for areas that interest him and is quite ambitious for such a young age.”

Multiple reports have indicated he was the brains behind the family’s cryptocurrency business, and that has reportedly yielded a lot of money for them. According to Forbes, Barron alone is believed to be worth around $150 million, and he owns millions more in locked-up tokens that can’t be traded yet.

“He has been actively pursuing successful ventures for several years,” a source said. “Turning 20 is indeed a turning point for him as he gets older and wants to engage with projects that not only interest him, but will make him a lot of money.”

Reportedly, his successful family is part of the reason Barron wants to prove himself. “This is how to impress his family,” the source said. “He wants to make his own mark.”

“He has always thought about business and truly is interested in it like his father. A lot of this ambition has to do with his desire to look good to Donald, as well as to his mother. He is more gung-ho than most.”

The publication also reported that the thing that sets Barron apart is his close relationship with his mother, Melania. “Barron is a carbon copy of his father, yet he is blessed without the elder’s brashness,” the source said. “He is more like his mother with a European aloof and quiet sophistication.”

“He is different from the other Trump children in the sense that he is sort of a loner,” the source added. “Growing up in the public eye and not necessarily feeling comfortable in it has made him stronger within himself, and at the same time, is driving his ambition. It’s an interesting combination.”

Barron Trump attended his first year of college last year at New York University’s Greenwich Village campus, but is now studying at the NYU Washington campus. Not just that, he is reportedly living in the White House too. “He has been happy in Washington, where he has access to his family and to different options for his own future as a businessman and young entrepreneur,” a political source told the publication.

And experts expect him to continue with business school. “While he probably doesn’t need to finish to move on with his life, my feeling at this time is that he will graduate, and if nothing changes will likely do it from where he is,” the source said.
