Reports reveal that a fresh university graduate in the United States stands to make a lot of money off Kanye West's back.

According to the Daily Mail, Tramall Ferguson was the first person to support Kanye’s bid for the White House when he bought the domain KanyeForPresident.com an astonishing five months before West's epic VMA speech on Sunday night.

According to a TMZ report, the 24-year-old graduate bought the site 'on a whim' back in April.

But following the Kanye’s rambling 12-minute address at MTV's New York award show which culminated in his declaration 'I have decided, in 2020, to run for president', Tramall Ferguson was suddenly sitting on a very in-demand URL.

He has reportedly been offered upwards of $80,000 for the URL already.

However the 24-year old graduate says he is 'holding out' for a call from Kanye himself, but has yet to decide how much he will actually sell it for.
