Not to get political but....
How much money do politicians get paid any politician world wide not just your country, and how much money do they have. Even the countries with low corruption. Any politician from any political party gains wealth.
Not giving the WK wealth might be a feature not a bug. The WK has to shaped his mind, and bargaining skills .

The question then becomes, can and does Harry renegotiate his contract?  He has cause because the first time around wasn't really a renegotiation, it was under duress and he was sure he was going to be killed after little Maggie was saved.  I think the bigger question is would Mab renegotiate?  Or does Harry want to because he doesn't want to owe her anymore than he already does.

there is an obligation between WK and Queen, WK and lady , WK and mother. Its not Mab fault that her WK cant / wont  negotiate for better treatment.
Im sure the is a WK expense account that harry will be shocked to find out about once he no longer needs money

It's possible, however I don't remember Slate exactly living high off the hog either.

He already renegotiated his contract in a sense. After he did the whole ghost thing and found out that his attempt to kill himself failed, he told Mab that he is not going to obey her blindly and he will fulfill his jobs the way he thinks they should be done. If she couldn't work with that then he would force her to get rid of him by obeying her tasks to the letter, but showing no initiative.

I still think, and I have to go through the short stories that there is a rule that Harry can't negotiate for cash.. Then again I most likely dreamed it.. ::)
