Τα προνόμια, το κύρος και η δύναμη είναι τα οφέλη που συνοδεύουν την εξουσία. Οι λεγόμενοι γαλαζοαίματοι, εκτός από τους μεγάλους τίτλους που τους συνοδεύουν, έχουν κατεφέρει να διαθέτουν τεράστιες περιουσίες είτε μέσω κληρονομιάς είτε μέσω του βασιλικού μισθού τους.
Αυτός ο πλούτος μεταφέρεται συχνά από τη μια γενιά στην άλλη, οπότε στην πραγματικότητα δεν αφήνει ποτέ την οικογένεια. Η βρετανική βασιλική οικογένεια είναι μια από τις πολυτιμότερες βασιλικές οικογένειες σε όλο τον κόσμο.
Ας δούμε όμως παρακάτω μερικά ακόμη παραδείγματα.
