I like when PA goes out without Charlene it about him not her. He seem more relax and happy that way.

Forbes came out with its list of Richest Royals, again. Prince Albert came in at number nine with 1.4 billion dollars. Forget his nephews, I'm all about Prince Albert now.

Oh, Angeline those 90 pics of PA, it's a great find.

PA skips Olympics for 2 days in order to visit Mongolia.
Some article, in one he is called King of Monaco, I think he doesn't mind being called king.

Wonder if Albert is back on Sunday for Olympic Games closing.

The pictures were great. Prince Albert looked handsome and Charlene looked beautiful in the dress she wore to the Red Cross Ball. I would have liked to have seen Charlene compete and win gold, so Prince Albert could have presented her with a metal.

Thanks EllieSofie. The schooling is what I suspected as that what was the case. Now- next thing we know (trumpets) Miss CW of SA and -- of Monaco announce..... Doing it "his" way.We shall see.

This qoute from the Forbes article is very interesting. It makes you wonder how much of the $1.4 billion is in liquid assets (cash, stocks, bonds, etc). Also, how much access does Prince Albert have to the money. However, I doubt he is hurting for cash.

"Keep in mind that the wealth of the royals comes from inheritances or positions of power; it is often shared with extended families and often represents money controlled by them in trust for their nation or territory. For these reasons, none of the 15 royals on this list would qualify for our annual ranking of the world billionaires, regardless of their net worth."
