Tangentially to our discussion, a Status 7 job would net $700,000,000 or bring in a surplus of $100,000,000 per month. I'd imagine the monarch would want to tie up those futures too...
To be honest, I don't know, and it may be a state secret. It doesn't seem to me
though that a typical monarch lives all that much more extravagantly then a captain of industry in the last century. There is only so much you can spend on just yourself and your entourage.
