Do you get paid for being president?

Answer 1

For most presidents, it's a pay cut, but this is not because they don't get a (significant) salary, it's because they were already rich to start with.

The current salary for the US President is $400,000 per year. The president also has a $50,000/year expense account, a $100,000/year travel allowance, and a $19,000 entertainment budget. Some of the expenses of being president are covered by the government directly (for example, the US government pays for state dinners). Others are not: personal meals for the president, his family, and guests (other than official diplomatic guests) must be paid for by the president. Still, the total compensation package is well over a half-million per year, and part of it is not subject to personal income tax. So it's not like he's hurting for money.

The president gets paid salary, he does not get a check every month or week, he will be on "direct deposit" for want of another way to say it and a staff member will make sure his blackberry bill and mortgage is paid.
