The Kardashian family has a number of accolades under their belt, and Kim Kardashian has just added a new accomplishment to that list: becoming a billionaire. Forbes announced earlier this week that the 40-year-old reality star and entrepreneur has officially reached a new benchmark in her worth, joining her sister Kylie Jenner at the top of the earning chain.

With businesses like Skim’s and KKW Beauty, Kardashian has a steady stream of income from both of her extremely lucrative hustles. Kim has reportedly been dedicating most of her attention to work since she filed for divorce from Kanye West in February, and that hard work clearly seems to be paying off.
On top of her two businesses, Kardashian also makes money from Keeping Up With the Kardashians and the endorsements that accompany the show. Everything combined has put the mother-of-four into the billion bracket. According to CNN Business, Kardashian has a $500 million stake in KKW beauty, and a $225 million stake in Skims, with the TV show, cash assets, and real estate making all the difference in her net worth.
Kim Kardashian is the second in her family to become a billionaire, with Kylie Jenner being listed by Forbes as a ‘self-made billionaire’ in 2020 which drew cries of outrage that the 22-year-old was not self-made considering the worth and notoriety of her family. However, Kylie is notably missing from this years’ Forbes list of billionaires, begging the question if Jenner did in fact exaggerate her net worth last year.
