As for your
saying the Vatican City is not
making the merchants of the
earth wealthy, we do not know
all the names of the companies
that the Vatican owns or has
bought stocks, and bonds in
although they also do own over
5,000 real estate properties
according to a 2023 article
at
What
companies does the Vatican
own? (2023)
(ngontinh24.com)
The CIA estimates the
Vatican's wealth is only $4
billion dollars.
However, another
article Catholic
Church Net Worth 2023 |
The Wealth Record says
"The
Catholic Church is the
largest and topmost
Christian organization
which has an estimated
wealth of more than
$30 billion as of
2023. Estimation of
its net worth comes
from its ownership of
properties including
churches, schools,
presbyteries,
hospitals, nursing
homes, offices, tennis
courts, and telephone
towers." So only
they know how much
wealth they have.
