You have no clue how the money part of this works, do you?
Sure I do; The “ROYALS” appropriated propety long LONG ago. They continue to claim ownership and enjoy the income from it as well as pocketing their “ROYAL” allowances.
Decades ago I thought the Brits were well on their way to kicking the ROYAlS out by their royal arses, but it never happened. Shame.

It is FAR worse than I ever imagined:
“Windows are opening on the British royal family’s wealth”

In most free countries it would be called theft.
