Kwame Jackson, runner-up of the first season of NBC & Donald Trump's The Apprentice, has pieced together a deal that would make "The Donald" proud.

With two other partners, Jackson has made a deal with officials in Prince George's County in Maryland to develop an 80 to 130 acre area into commercial and residential property.

The deal is worth $3.8 billion and will provide over 32,000 jobs, Jackson said.

Jackson's company, Legacy Holdings, is also making plans to release an executive menswear line and a television show.

Season one of The Apprentice was released on video this week; season two premieres on NBC on Thursday, September 9.
