Washington: Republican presumptive presidential nominee Donald Trump claimed again Tuesday that he is worth "in excess of $10 billion" -- more than twice the level of independent estimates.
The New York real estate tycoon said he filed his personal financial disclosure (PFD) form with the Federal Election Commission (FEC), a step every White House aspirant must take to qualify as a candidate.
The commission has yet to release the document but is expected to do so within 30 days.
"I filed my PFD, which I am proud to say is the largest in the history of the FEC," Trump declared in the statement.
"This is the kind of thinking the country needs."
Clinton, the likely Democratic presidential nominee, has been roundly criticized over her massive paydays for speeches to big banks and investment firms since leaving the State Department.
According to campaign documents cited by ABC News, Clinton last year gave six paid speeches for a total income of $1.475 million.
Clinton has not given any paid speeches since announcing her presidential campaign in April of last year.
