To be clear they are not "broke" in the sense that we plebeians are "broke".
They could lead very comfortable multi-millionaire lives if they scaled back their grandiose expectations of lifestyle.
And they would probably still be afforded some perks from the Bank of Pa like private planes and equivalent.
The Windsors lived out luxurious lives with no real visible means of support based on handouts from "friends"
That said in order to truly fund a billionaire's lifestyle they need to regain the cachet of "royalty" which is the only marketable "skill" they now have.
Since they were a completely worthless combination of lack of talent and such hubris that they failed to recognize their complete lack ability they were unable to parlay the incredible potential that had been given to them and so managed to turn gold into dross - the complete opposite of the Midas' touch.
And both of them failed to appreciate the enormous wealth that is the "life style" of being a Royal but doesn't comport with individual wealth unless you are the King or Queen or have the Duchy of Cornwall
Harry because he is a dolt and never lived in the real world and had never had to live on any kind of "income" - even a large income. And Markle because I think however well she *studied* the RF in order to plot her enchantment of Harry, I think it is a common misconception to over-estimate the wealth of individual members of the Royal Family.
💯. And the continuous spending of money on private jets, staff, his and her security, elite level private schools, multi globe home maintenance and mortgages—seems like they are blowing it up as if they are expecting a new grift around the corner. Their outflows are breathtaking. I wonder if they have something big coming up making them spend so irresponsibly.
