The idea of a man whose life is funded by inheritance having an ounce of money nouse may bring on a fit of apoplexy among commentators. It's fair to say that Prince Charles's accounts, released recently, reveal a moneyed and cosseted life where it's perfectly reasonable to spend £246,160 on a private flight in order to attend Nelson Mandela's funeral. However, behind the enormous cost of running the monarchy, there lies an alternative argument: that Prince Charles has made some sound money decisions.

So what do you think? Does he qualify as a money guru?%VIRTUAL-SkimlinksPromo%
