A Roma soldier received his pay every four months. That is, he was paid every four months, but out of this "pay check" he had deductions for food, clothing, shoes, and any extra equipment. He also had to pay his share of the cost of fodder for the contubernium mule and any donations for camp festivities, such as the Saturnalia party. If he had received a donative or a bonus during his pay period, part of that had to be saved. Upon honorable retirement, he received all his savings that had accumulated over his years of service plus a retirement bonus of either land or cash.
