Bill Rancic is going to fire himself.

Rancic, winner of the first season of NBC's "The Apprentice," says he'll stop working for Donald Trump when his contract ends in March.

"That will probably be it for me," he said at a global leadership forum Wednesday in Malaysia.

He has been overseeing construction of the 90-story Trump International Hotel and Tower in Chicago.

"I'm gonna go out and start another business of my own," said the former Internet entrepreneur. "That's in my blood."

Rancic said he'll leave before Trump's project along the Chicago river is completed.
