Pope Benedict XVI's Retirement Package

The Vatican recently released details of Pope Benedict XVI's retirement package to the public. This being the first time the Vatican has had to configure one of these packages in a very long while, they finally managed to iron out the details.



His monthly pension will be 2,500 euros. All his expenses will be covered by the Roman Catholic Church that includes accommodation, food as well as any staff he may need for his residence.

As we all know the health of his holiness has not been the best in the last few years. This was even cited as being one of the reasons for his retirement. Well, he does not have to worry about health care. He will still be covered by the private health care package provided by the Vatican.

In my opinion this is a pretty sweet retirement package that is going to help him live his last days on earth in peace. For a man who has served others, and provided guidance for many years he surely deserves it. Thank you Papa!
