I wonder how the Royal family gets their money? Does a portion come from the taxpayers? Or they have like massive investments that will sustain all their expenses?

LOL at the little kid covering her ears.. your hands should be in front of your eyes little one =D

It depends. Long story short, the UK taxpayers do pay to support the Royal Family but the Royal Family pays more in taxes so it's a net positive.

The Queen has her own property as well and apparently, she still gets paid by the UK government for that. And, of course, investments.

I think the last estimate I saw everyone in the UK paid about 62p per person to keep them afloat, not including security.
