Prince William is asked how much money is in his bank account — the answer may surprise you

That was royally bold!

An 11-year-old boy asked Prince William about his financial situation Thursday during a visit to the Hideaway Youth Project in Manchester, England.

The boy, named Amir Hassan, flat-out asked William, “How much do you have in your bank account?” according to the Telegraph.

The future king broke out into laughter before admitting that he “didn’t know.”

The kids were working on an art project that involved cutting out hairstyles from magazines they thought were empowering during William’s visit, and reportedly they asked he if wanted to join in.

“I’m literally the last person you should ask,” William joked back. “My hair is disappearing.”

The Prince of Wales very well may have no idea how much money is in his possession as it is protocol for members of the royal family to never carry cash on them.

This is reportedly for security reasons, although Queen Elizabeth II was known to carry bills in her purse on Sundays for church donation.

But William likely isn’t pinching pennies, either. When King Charles ascended to the throne, William inherited the Duchy of Cornwall, which is worth about $1.3 billion.

Prince William also joked about his lack of hair during his visit.

The Duchy, which is comprised of farmland, property and commercial businesses, was created by King Edward III in 1337 to provide income to the heir to the throne.

King Charles used it to pay for the life and public work of the heir to the throne and his immediate family, which is also how William is using it.

“I’ve started to think about how I will inherit the Duchy one day,” William told farmers in the documentary “Prince Charles: Inside the Duchy of Cornwall.” “Well, rest assured I’m not going to rock the boat; I’ll do much the same as what my father’s doing. I’m not so into the architecture — that’s the only thing.”
