13 Million More Reasons Chicks Wanna Serve the Prince

The future ruler of the British Empire turned 25 today, but who gives a rat's arse about his age when, just like that, Prince William is loaded!

That's because Wills, upon crossing the 25-year-old threshold, gets the $13 million his mother Princess Diana left him in her will, plus interest and "other income accrued," according to reports. That translates into about $500,000 to $600,000 per year, on top of the reported $44,000 he makes from being a second lieutenant in the British Army.

And then, of course, there's his expense account, which his dad, Prince Charles, takes care of -- though sources who knew Wills in high school at Eton tell TMZ that he never ever had spending money, and that his subjects/pals had to fork over cash for everything.

We'd love to hear Wills' granny -- you know, the Queen -- trash-talking him today as he blows out the candles over his relatively paltry take. After all, she gets around $10 million per year in salary, and her net worth, according to Forbes, is about $500 million.

61. Funny how in his younger years he looked like Diana and how he is now morphing into Charles.

63. He's actually drawing on the interest on the original 13M. The total sum, assuming even a conservative return compounded, is now several times the original 13M after 10 years.

65. I agree It does look like he is losing his hair!! That is not good. But then again His dad doesn't have a lot of hair and neither does his grandfather. So I guess that's just the way things Go.

66. To the stupid twits who insist the pic is really olf Harry, get a clue! Harry has CURLY RED hair, the pic is of William, I just wish they hadnt posted such a dreadful one of him! I watched the interview on TV and I say he looks so very handsome and exactly like his beautiful mother. Happy belated birthday to the prince! :)

P.S. My 10 year old daughter has the same birthday (21st) and it thrills her to no end! lol
