One of the things I really love about my work is the fact that I can do it from anywhere. Getting a change of scenery can really help inspire creativity in my work and has once or twice or maybe more cured my writer's block. Being away for work, for fun, or for both is a perfect opportunity to host your space on Airbnb.

With Airbnb's co-host network, it is easier than ever before to host. Now you can hire a high-quality local co-host to take care of your home and your guests.

Today, I'm going to pull back the curtain on a financial institution you probably didn't expect to hear on the show, Vatican City, with the new pope, the Sistine Chapel, the Swiss guards, and a surprisingly tangled financial web. Now, you might think of the Vatican as this holy place, and it absolutely is.

But it's also a sovereign city-state with a bank, real estate assets, a pension fund, and a history of financial scandal that would make Wall Street blush. Today, we're going to dive into the financial story of the Catholic Church under Pope Francis, the scandals, the reforms, the setbacks, and what all of this means for the new pope, Pope Leo XIV. Let's rewind back to 2012.

This is the year before Pope Francis became pope, and the Vatican was already in the middle of a full-blown credibility crisis. Not just spiritually, but financially. That year, a European financial watchdog known as Moneyball did a first-of-its-kind audit of the Vatican Bank, formerly known as the Institute for the Works of Religion, or IOR for short. and it didn't go that well.

The IOR had more than $8 billion in assets spread across 33,000 accounts. But the big shock wasn't the size. It was the secrecy. The bank had been involved in scandals stretching back decades, including money laundering and shady dealings with everyone from fascists to financiers.
