This sets a record for the oldest British monarch to be crowned. The record had been held by William IV who was only 64 when he became King.
Hardly his first job! King Charles worked faithfully and full-time as Prince of Wales for decades, and it really was a LOT of work. Now he may well serve as king for another twenty years. Now Prince William will be working full-time as Prince of Wales. These are not easy jobs.
