  1. from everybody else. she wouldnt know what work was


  2. Properties in colonies and ex colonies

  3. From all the d**n bloaks who give it to her.

  4. Most of her wealth came from inheritance. The Queen's personal fortune has been the subject of speculation for many years. Sometimes estimated at US$10 billion, recently Forbes magazine conservatively estimated her fortune at around US$500 million (£280 million). This figure seems to agree with official Palace statements that called reports of the Queen's supposed multibillion-dollar wealth "grossly over-exaggerated;" however, it conflicts with a total addition of the Queen's personal holdings.

    Her personal art collection is worth at least £10 billion, but is held in trust for the nation, and cannot be sold. The Queen also owns large amounts of property privately that have never been valued, including Sandringham House and Balmoral Castle. Press reports, upon the death of the Queen Mother, speculated that by the Queen's inheritance, £28 million of death duties were avoided on an estate worth £70 million. Furthermore there is control and ownership of the Duchy of Lancaster, which is valued at £310 million and transferred a private income to the Monarch of £9.811 million in 2006.

    The Queen also technically owns the Crown Estate with holdings of £6 billion; however, the income of this is transferred to the Treasury in return for the civil list payments.

  5. From the golden era and all that family gold form centuries back.

  6. Taxes....the parasitic worms bleed us dry in taxes, oh yeah they work...lol..they open childrens wards, apart from that, they do nothing...the sooner those Germans are kicked out the country the better...the surname of Windsor?? WHAT? Its Saxacoburg...
