Yeah bring it on Donald
Dont know what happened to Bill but I suppose he is working on Trumps Chicago Hotel and Tower building as appointed.
I am pretty sure that the sequel of the show is there simply for its business value than for an effort to find real apprentice / replace Bill for that matter.
Since last show I followed The Donald bit closer, read his "How To Get Rich" (not worth it IMHO) and found out that its all just a huge marketing campaing for his Organization. Well he is a brilliant businessman with an extraordinary "people skills" so yeah good on him.
BTW few information I found - if they are 100% true or not I do not know
- Bill (last series winner) supposedly got 1yr contract to work for Trump at yearly salary of somewhere around US$250k
- Trump's Atlantic City casino division filling for bankrupcy in August 04(second time in last five years) unable to pay billions in loan repayments. A bank (Citibank??) takin over removing Donald from CEO job yet keeping his brand TRUMP for its reputation
- Donald cashing around US$18mil per episode of Apprentice after finding out how much the cast of FRIENDS were getting
I found all this info from various sources on Internet so would not guarantee that they are all true but one should keep his/her eyes and ears open
