POPE FRANCIS OWNED ONLY $100 AT TIME OF DEATH

Pope Francis’s personal wealth at the time of his death was just $100, or less than 90 euros.

He had no property, no personal bank accounts, and no investments.

According to the British newspaper, Mirror, Pope Francis was entitled to an annual salary of about 340,000 euros since he was elected Supreme Pontiff in 2013.

However, as a member of the Society of Jesus, he had taken a vow of poverty and decided never to receive that salary during his entire pontificate.

Instead of living in the luxurious papal apartments used by his predecessors, Francis chose to reside in the Casa Santa Marta, a small residence within the Vatican, where he led a much simpler life.

During his pontificate, he rejected many luxuries and maintained a modest routine, despite having all necessary expenses covered by the Vatican, such as food, travel, security, and accommodation..
