European Polo Championship Chief Rejects Prince Harry’s $70,000 Attendance Fee

The European Polo Championship 2023 was held for the first time at the Polo Club Dusseldorf from September 1st to the 10th.

This prestigious event welcomed national teams from eight countries, marking a significant moment for the sport.

However, it seems that Prince Harry's desire to attend the championship came with a hefty price tag.

According to a source from River, Prince Harry was invited to attend the European Polo Championship 2023 as a spectator.

However, instead of graciously accepting the invitation, he demanded a staggering $70,000 fee for his attendance.

It remains unclear to which foundation this fee would be directed, whether it be Archwell, Centrebell, or another entity.

Nevertheless, the Polo Club Dusseldorf swiftly turned down his request, leading to a public display of disappointment and frustration.

Prince Harry's audacious demand for such a substantial sum raises eyebrows and questions about his intentions.

From attempting to secure private jets and luxurious vacation homes to now charging a fee for a mere appearance in the audience, it seems that his wife, Meghan Markle, has imparted some questionable financial values.

One can only wonder if the requested $70,000 was intended to cover mortgage payments, house insurance, or even security expenses for a month.

The insatiable appetite for money appears to know no bounds.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex find themselves in a position where they need to establish their Hollywood careers.

However, true philanthropists typically possess significant financial resources before embarking on such endeavors.

Even if their future projects prove successful, it will take time to accumulate the necessary funds to support the kind of work they claim to aspire to.

It begs the question: do Meghan and Harry genuinely desire a life of service, or is their ultimate goal to pursue lucrative commercial ventures while maintaining a facade of selflessness?

The couple's recent actions, including charging fees to charities they were once patrons of, have left a sour taste in the mouths of many.

It is particularly distasteful considering their definition of service seems to entail lending their famous faces to charities in order to attract wealthy donors.

However, there are countless ways they could genuinely contribute to society, such as volunteering at soup kitchens, assisting at animal shelters, or participating in beach clean-ups.

Unfortunately, it appears that any form of service requiring genuine effort is off the table for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

In light of their quest for financial success, Meghan Markle's PR team has suggested that the couple could venture into the world of non-fungible tokens (NFTs).

NFTs are digital assets, similar to artwork, that can be owned and sold virtually.

It is believed that if Harry and Meghan were to create their own collection of NFTs, encapsulating the essence of the Sussex brand, they could potentially earn a staggering $9.8 million overnight.

Andras Kristof, an expert from Galaxus, a Web3 platform, explained that with the right approach, the world could be their oyster.

He emphasized that anyone with a dedicated community or following could create their own digital membership cards and NFTs, providing value to their supporters and potentially generating millions.

Of course, the success of such a venture would depend on factors such as the couple's fame, fan base, buyer interest, tangible value, marketing strategies, and other external variables.
