Father Tadeusz Rydzyk is one of the most controversial figures in our country. One of the most exciting issues is his enormous fortune. According to calculations by journalists of “Wirtualna Polska”, the Redemptorist was to receive at least PLN 380 million from the budget of state-owned companies over the last eight years.
Recently, Rydzyk revealed how much he spends monthly on maintaining Telewizja Trwam and Radio Maryja. Moreover, he made a request to his supporters. However, his appeal may surprise many people. It turns out that the priest’s financial situation is not as good as it might seem.
Rydzyk revealed how much he spends per month
As the controversial Redemptorist confessed, the bills are currently very high. That’s why the priest decided to ask for support from his viewers and listeners. – Every month you think about the budget for your family, also think about Radio Maryja and TV Trwam. Just to give you an idea of how much it costs. Don’t be scared, it’s a lot, but is it a lot for millions? Catholics are a giant, often a sleeping giant. We need to wake up everyone to responsibility and evangelization of the world. […] We need almost PLN 5 million a month. This is a lot, but is it a lot for millions of listeners? You just need to feel: “me too, I should help too.” Maybe without this help these media will cease to exist because they will become insolvent – he said on Telewizja Trwam.
The Rydzyk Foundation recorded a decline in revenues
It is worth mentioning that Rydzyk’s father’s foundation, Lux Veritatis, recorded a decline in revenue last year.
