    It’s pretty much the best option. The ill-gotten gains of kings often includes piles of trinkets and art that’s not really valuable to the rest of us sold off or melted down. There’s valuable history and artistic merit on display. Turn it into a museum. Charge a little to keep the place nice so the next generations can remember.
