Joyce Meyer, Meyer, who owns several homes and travels in a private jet (currently a Gulfstream G-IV),[8][9] has been criticized by some of her peers for living an excessive lifestyle. She responded that she doesnt have to defend her spending habits because ...theres no need for us to apologize for being blessed.[8] Meyer commented, You can be a businessman here in St. Louis, and people think the more you have, the more wonderful it is...but if you’re a preacher, then all of a sudden it becomes a problem.[8] In November 2003, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch published a four-part special report[8] detailing Meyers $10 million corporate jet, her husband’s $107,000 silver-gray Mercedes sedan, her $2 million home and houses worth another $2 million for her four children, a $20 million headquarters, furnished with $5.7 million worth of furniture, artwork, glassware, and the latest equipment and machinery, including a $30,000 malachite round table, a $23,000 marble-topped antique commode, a $14,000 custom office bookcase, a $7,000 Stations of the Cross in Dresden porcelain, a $6,300 eagle sculpture on a pedestal, another eagle made of silver bought for $5,000, and numerous paintings purchased for $1,000 to $4,000 each, among many other expensive items – all paid for by the ministry.
