I thought most of the kids were lawyers, and I was right. Then I saw this in the Wiki, and now I'm convinced this is where most of their money comes from:

All the principals of the Phelps Chartered law firm[2], a firm founded by WBC founder Fred Phelps, are members of WBC. Phelps Chartered handles most of WBC's legal work and has received significant awards of attorney's fees from the Civil Rights Attorney's Fees Award Act of 1976 when WBC has been improperly prevented from picketing.[10]
