I think most diocesan priests take a vow of chastity and obedience,

All are called to live a life of chastity (married people included); priests take a vow of celibacy. There's a difference.

You're right. But my point was that not all priests take vows of poverty. Also, the phrase, "poverty, chastity and obedience" is well known.
