"Here is the thing. Any member of the royal family can walk away from it all at any time. Thing is, they are only in it for the money. And it is quite the friggin' paycheck." - by WTFK?

Here is the thing:
"Any member of the royal family can walk away from it all at any time."

Eh? No they can't - classic example - Mountbatten.

Thing is:
"they are only in it for the money. And it is quite the friggin' paycheck."

Eh? No. As a member of the Royal Family Harry may or may not be entitled to money from what they call the "Civil List". As 3rd in Line to the Throne I would not imagine that that would amount to much as it is paid for performing civic duties. Now for drawing money from the Civil List the Royal Family forgoes income from the Crown Estates - that all goes to the Government. Now then WTFK? a little indication for you, that I think is needed because you are obviously from the far side of the pond. Civil List costs the UK Tax Payer £37.2 million pounds per year. In Profit by way of income the Crown Estates contribute around £190 million per year. So they are most definitely are not in it for the money, or if they are, they have obviously been very badly advised.

Oh and by the bye WTFK?, from what I recall, as an officer in the Household Brigade, The "Blues and Royals" are part of the Household Brigade, Cornet Wales' Army salary will probably not even pay his monthly Mess Bill.

Good on him and all the other lads out there and to hell with the so-called journalists who decided that getting their "gossip" story out was worth more than potentially increasing the risk of endangering the lives of a whole rake of people already in harms way.

Catherine Jayne, I wish your brother all the best, if he goes out to Afghan in a couple of months time he will be out there at the same time as my son.
