The Royals keep a very small percentage of their own earnings.
They generate and pay into the country a hell of a lot more than they take. The Crown Estate is no longer owned by the Royals and makes 200+ million a year for the treasury.

you dont honestly believe all that pro monarchy bbc spewed propoganda...the 50 p her is a lie....the figures they spew do NOT even include security costs which run to several million a year alone
they disfigure our so called democracy , corrupt our laws, waste our money, re-inforce the bigotted class system, theyre the worst example too of a multi cutlural society....no catholics, no jews, no arabs , no blacks ever in the history of the british monarchy? nice
they own enough land to fill up half of wales....land mostly wasted and derelict, charles has over 100 castle in cornwall alone...the art in windsor castle alone is worth billions and no one ever gets to see it ..what a farce
what do they represent historially? hmmm rape and pillage, class discrimination? burnt down churches? civil wars, apartheid, enslavement, murder, inernational wars and potatoe famines?
read the declaration of US independence, written in blood, the yanks freed from the tyranny of the english crown
