Prince William Made Bank in His First Full Year as First in Line to the Throne

Prince William's annual salary has been revealed, and it's a hefty income, though he will pay taxes.

Ever since Prince William was promoted to Duke of Cornwall following his father’s ascension to the throne, he’s been raking in the pounds. If you didn’t know—because why would you, we did a whole war to not be controlled by these people—Wills earns income from the “Duchy of Cornwall estate,” which is a fancy way of saying the territory owned by whoever is Duke of Cornwall. If kings have kingdoms, dukes have duchies. Anyway, he made $30 million.

If all this seems kind of arcane and like “I don’t understand it,” well, it’s an estate that was established by King Edward III in 1337—so, like, why would we get it? The point is, Prince William has lots of money and is, apparently, good at being Duke of Cornwall. Because if he were bad at it, the duchy would lose money, right? Or is that not…? I grew up in California, okay? I can’t be expected to understand how Britain works.
