The president's salary can not changed until after the current term expires. However, the salary for the next term can be changed by Congress which means a president can get a different salary for his second term. US Grant found his salary doubled for his second term .
There have been two U.S. presidents who chose not to take a salary during their time in office. The first was George Washington, who declined a salary for his entire presidency. The second was Herbert Hoover, who also refused to accept a salary during his term in office. Both presidents were independently wealthy and felt that they did not need the salary for their service to the country.
Former presidents who are still alive are Jimmy Carter, George Bush, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush. They do NOT continue to earn the same full salary they made in office.
