Donald Trump to forgo salary as US president

Republican billionaire Donald Trump said in an interview broadcast Sunday he would forgo the $400,000 salary that comes with the US president`s job.

"I`m not going to take the salary. I`m not taking it," he told CBS`s "60 minutes," confirming a promise he made in a campaign video in September.

"I think I have to by law take $1, so I`ll take $1 a year," he added.
