Bill Rancic made $12,000 a month his first year with Trump, will earn more now.
Original Apprentice winner Bill Rancic recently came to the end of his year-long employment with the Trump Organization, but he negotiated with Donald Trump and will be sticking around for a second year. After taxes were taken out of his announced $250,000 a year salary, Bill tells TV Guide that he took home “About $6,000 every two weeks. But I don’t know if I want to publish that.” Oops! There it is, published anyway. Bill negotiated with Donald Trump, and although Donald wouldn’t budge by throwing out the first number, Bill says, “It’s safe to say I’ll be doing better than I did last year.” He’ll “continue to work on the Trump International Hotel & Tower project in Chicago and I’ll also be working on other projects, like Donald’s new golf club development in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.” And he insists that “only 10 percent of the job” is doing celebrity events and such.
