But I have heard she's a billionaire. And she is definitely richer than the Queen.
£80million is somewhere in the region of $160million. These days there's £2 (or thereabouts) to every $1. Quote:
im thinking she is closer the 400 million maby more than that going by the UK press who are obbsessed by her money
This figure is only what she earned in 2004, not her whole earnings.

yeah i heard she was richer than the queen, she was before OotP, but from my estimate i would set her at around £350m that is a LOT of money, i know what i would be doing right about now if i had that kinda of money, id be doing what a russian billionaire does, buy a football team
