A Catholic priest in an order (Franciscans, Carmelites, Cistercians etc) almost all take a vow of poverty, so none.
Depending on the individual diocese: diocesan priests receive a salary of roughly $40,000 annually in the US, of which $20,000 is immediately reserved for the Parish. Other requirements throughout the year very often dip into what is remaining. The average priest lives on fairly little, enough for food, clothes, day to day items and usually car insurance, but not much more.
This also varies country to country and diocese to diocese, America would probably be amongst the highest.
Bishops receive around half of what a priest does, and a Pope receives no salary at all.

How much does the clergy make?
This varies widely and depends both on the denomination, the congregation, and the larger society. Some clergy volunteer their ministry, so have to have a secular career to earn an income. Some clergy get no salary, but have all their needs provided for.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics lumps all religious leaders into the category of "clergy." The average annual salary for all clergy in the United States, according to the BLS was $46,960 as of May 2009.
