According to the National Federation of Priests' Council (NFPC), in 2002 diocesan priests made between $15,291 and $18,478 per year. In addition to their salary, diocesan priests receive benefits that may include a car allowance, room and board in a parish rectory, health insurance, and a retirement plan. Diocesan priests who teach typically make an income from teaching that is less than what a lay person would earn in the same position.

I want to add that a typical contract security guard making $12.00 an hour working 40 hours a week getting paid to do his homework assignments on company time at a quiet jobsite as a seminary student, can make just as much while being a student before he is ordained than he will after he is ordained as a priest.

Catholic priests in the U.S. are paid an average yearly salary of $40,000 according to stats of Nov. 2010. In addition, a priest will receive rectory housing, healthcare, and a vehicle stipend. I will assume that a priest in Portugal will receive similiar salary depending on his order, education, and location of where he is assigned. And that salary would be in Euros.
Its R 0,00, since they don't earn a salary. They live through the mercy of parishioners
