Historically speaking, a very popular royal choice.
Even in modern history.
You know what King Leopold, Butcher of the Congo, ended up doing with the money?
Well with the moniker "Butcher of the Congo" I can only assume he was building orphanages, hospitals, animal sanctuaries, and libraries.
Or enriching the world with the knowledge of choice meat cuts, dry cured ham, and chorizo?
Nah, he was from Belgium, not Spain. He was all about that waffles and chocolate life.
