Turning over inherited wealth to able business managers who in turn produce a profit is not an accomplishment.
Dear wagglebee,
"Turning over inherited wealth to able business managers who in turn produce a profit is not an accomplishment."
Actually, you'd be surprised at the number of fortunes lost in the second and third generation by individuals who cannot achieve even this accomplishment. Managing inherited wealth, and growing it isn't quite as easy as it looks.
However, it was my understanding that previously, the Cornwall holdings were not especially lucrative in terms of income. It was my understanding that the prince himself helped to devise a business plan to make these holdings the crown jewel of his business holdings.
Taking an unproductive inherited asset and making it very productive is an accomplishment.
I've pinged some gentlemen who might know a little more than me about this topic.

All inherited wealth was stolen from the proletariat and should be returned to them.
