Religious Catholic

Can the Catholic religious priest spend his money to go to a hotel and enjoy his life as he wish?

My best friend is a catholic religious priest and He is a teacher in a technical college. Does he has any income and can he handle his money as his wish. Can he spend his money to go to a hotel and enjoy his life as he wish?
The enjoy means.. can he has sex with a woman as he wish??
***PS: I am not catholic.. , but I love Catholic people

It depends on what kind of priest he is.

There are two types of Catholic priests:

A religious priest is ordained into a religious order like the Society of Jesus (Jesuit) or Franciscans. He receives duty assignments from superiors in their respective religious orders. Some religious priests specialize in teaching, whereas others serve as missionaries in foreign countries, where they may live under difficult and primitive conditions. Other religious priests live a communal life in monasteries, where they devote their lives to prayer, study, and assigned work. These priests take vows of chastity, poverty, and obedience.

A diocesan priest is ordained to serve in a specific geographical area (called a diocese). He ministers under the leadership of a bishop, and will more than likely serve as a parish priest. These priests take vows of chastity and obedience but not poverty.

So if he is a religious priest then no he cannot "spend his money to go to a hotel and enjoy his life as he wish" because he has no money of his own.

If he is a diocesan priest then, yes, he can go on vacation and "spend his money to go to a hotel and enjoy his life as he wish."

Both types of priests are celibate.

With love in Christ.
