Early Life: Elizabeth Alexandra Mary was born in London, United Kingdom in April 1926. Her parents were Prince Albert, Duke of York, and Elizabeth, Duchess of York. During the Second World War she served in the Auxiliary Territorial Service. She married Prince Philip of Greece and Denmark in 1947. They would go on to have four children including Prince Charles, who would eventually be her heir-apparent to the throne.

When she was born, her grandfather, George the V, was King and her uncle was in-line to inherit the throne. Upon her grandfather's death, her uncle became King Edward VIII. In 1936, just 11 months after ascending to the throne, Edward abdicated so he could marry his American wife Wallis Simpson. When Edward abdicated, the crown passed to his younger brother Albert Frederick Arthur George – Elizabeth's father. He became George VI and reined from 1936 until his death in February 1952.

As of this writing they have eight grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren. Elizabeth is the patron of more than 600 charities and organizations. She has famously owned Pembroke Welsh Corgis for most of her life.

Wealth Details

 Contrary to popular belief, Queen Elizabeth is not even close to being the wealthiest woman in the world. Technically she is not even a billionaire. As of this writing, Queen Elizabeth's net worth is $600 million.

Elizabeth's assets are split into two categories: 1) Assets directly owned by her personally and 2) Assets by body called the Crown Estate.

Personal Assets

Queen Elizabeth personally owns Balmoral Castle in Scotland and the Sandringham Estate Norfolk, England. She inherited these properties from her father. She personally owns a valuable stock portfolio, several works of art and even a stamp collection.

The Crown Estate

The Crown Estate is essentially a real estate portfolio that is not owned by either Elizabeth or the government. If she did own the Crown Estate personally, Queen Elizabeth's net worth would easily top $25 billion which would make her one of the 50 richest people in the world. And while she may not own the Crown Estate, she does profit from its income. In a given year, the Crown Estate produces around $18 million in income annually for Elizabeth. Another real estate portfolio called the Duchy of Lancaster, produces an income of $27 million per year. Through an entity called the Sovereign Grant, Elizabeth takes 25% of the income produced by the Crown Estate to pay for her family's expenses such as travel, housekeeping and IT costs.
