The annual salary of the American presidents is $ 400,000, which Donald Trump has said he will reject, but Michelle Obama's husband will have at his disposal $ 207,800 per year, plus medical insurance and secret service protection for the rest of his life. In addition, during the first seven months of his transition to a private life, Obama will receive seven months of his normal salary, which is commonly given to all former presidents.
