Spot on. Being Royal is all about being discreet about how rich you are. Never demeaning or looking down on the little people. Being kind, being interested in ordinary people. Doing charity work, never making any comment or opinion about anything controversial, especially politics.
Yes these people lave a life of luxury, but they live in a glass prison with strict rules. And it takes training to be able to do it. I wouldn't be a royal.
The erudite Australian Clive James made a similar observation about fame, in that many people who seek fame find out to their horror later on that you cant escape it once you have it. It becomes a prison from which you cant escape.
