King Charles has a personal fortune of nearly $750 million, according to The Sunday Times. He is worth about $285 million more than the late Queen. Charles became scrupulous with his finances after divorcing Princess Diana and began saving profits from the Duchy of Cornwall. A large chunk of his fortune comes from the Sandringham estate in Norfolk, estimated to be worth £245 million, and Balmoral castle in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, worth £210 million. As King, Charles is now in control of the Crown Estate, worth about £15.6 billion.
