King Charles III alone has a princely estimated internet value of £1.8 billion, with the Windsors extra extensively value a whopping £21.3 billion based on Forbes. So Jeff may have the complete set seven-fold and nonetheless have change.

If Jeff so wished, he may deal with each man, lady and youngster within the UK to a sausage roll. Every single day. For 5 and a half years.

And Jeff can decide up an equally fairly-priced pub for across the £450,000 mark, based on The Sun, who documented quite a lot of the places’ sale costs. So splashing all his money on Wetherspoons places would imply he may buy simply shy of 298,000 spots.
The solely snag in that plan is that there are at present solely 27,600 bars and pubs in the complete UK. Despite being sacrilegious to booze-loving Brits, Jeff may need to kick off a brand new, hospitality-themed monopoly: ‘Amazon Drink’.

But what if the entrepreneur wished to stretch his legs on the moon? Nasa splurges a whopping £3.2 billion per four-person flight in its Artemis venture which can proceed all through the 2020s – one seat costing 1 / 4 of the sum.
So Jeff may afford to take a moonwalk each single 12 months for an additional 168 spins across the solar.
