At the time of his death, Pope Francis had only $100. That’s around Shs340K. No property. No bank accounts. No investments.
He was entitled to an annual salary of €340,000. But he refused it. As a Jesuit, he lived by his vow of poverty and never took a cent.
He didn’t stay in the papal palace. He chose Casa Santa Marta, a simple guesthouse inside the Vatican.
The Vatican took care of his food, travel, and security. But he chose to live without luxury. Just service. Just humility.
This is Pope Francis.
The Pope who:
- Carried his own luggage
- Paid his hotel bill after his election
- Lived in a guesthouse instead of a palace
His life was a revolution. A reminder that true leadership doesn’t need gold or power. Just heart. Just integrity.
He showed the world that humility speaks louder than titles.
