How Kylie Jenner Really Became The Youngest Billionaire

Kylie Jenner, how did she become the youngest Self-Made Billionaire? Net worth aside, here are the 10 reasons how she actually did it. Kylie has surpassed most, if not all, of the benchmarks that we aim to fulfill in our entire lives. She lives in a mansion, she has a collection of fast and expensive cars(more than 21) , she wears mostly designer brands, and she's got an adorable baby.

But most of this wouldn't have been possible without her business, Kylie Cosmetics. This million-dollar venture took over the cosmetics industry in a matter of months.

The 10 Biggest Animals Ever Found In The World

As Forbes said, she’s the youngest-ever self-made billionaire, reaching a ten-figure fortune at an even younger age than Facebook founder, Mark Zuckerberg. Kylie Cosmetics launched two years ago with a $29 Lip Kit, comprising of a matching lipstick and lip liner. But Kylie's business brain wasn't satisfied with just selling Lip Kits. She knew that if she wanted to make it big, she'd need to diversify.

So what was once a small line of lip colors became much larger. Kylie released 30 new products in 2017, including concealer and makeup brushes, and many more color combinations in 2018. Soon enough, Kylie Cosmetics was taking over the western world, one Lip Kit at a time. Many people have questioned the definition of 'self-made,' claiming that Kylie had a lot of help behind the scenes along with a prominent family to help her along the way.

And while Forbes claims that their definition is based on people who don't inherit their fortune, there have certainly been a few steps over the years that Kylie's had a little help with when it comes to making Kylie Cosmetics the success that it is today. We'll be taking a look at some of the elements of her business plan, the strategy that she uses to promote her products, and all of the other reasons as to why Kylie deserves her title of self-made, after all.

" Self-Made " might seem like it's being used loosely but, like every great entrepreneur, she saw a great opportunity and turned it to a success story. We can't deny the platform she already had, but these 10 reasons might change your mind or at least inspire you for your own business 😉

“I am a special case because before I started Kylie Cosmetics, I already had a huge platform and lots of fans.” _but_ “I did not get money from my parents past the age of 15. I used 100 percent of my *own money* to start the company, not a dime in my bank account is inherited… and I am very proud of that.” - *Kylie Jenner*

“Self made” as if her family net worth wasn’t already like $500, 000, 000

“Self made” if my sister got plowed on camera and my parents were multi millionaires I could probably be self made too

[bryanbea]

Kylie's intelligence is so underrated! She's a marketing mastermind. Of course creds to her mom and her team also.

[biggiecheeze]

Brave of you to explain her as *”self made”*

[Jason-enue]

"Self made" not the correct words to describe her

[neighborgirl]

She’s not “self made” she already came from money 💰. Self made is when you come from nothing .

[aashisinghai]

You can't call her self made because the platform and the following that she was endowed with was because of her family. Companies spend millions of dollars to get the kind of popularity that Kylie had, even before starting her own make up brand.

But that being said she is still a billionaire. Kudos to her for that!

[haleedasaufi]

She had a clear goal since she was young and she strive for it until she achieve it. Yet I'm just here wasting my time on youtube

[rubiginosaa]

I don't believe for a second that her mom financially cut her off at the age of 14. Maybe after transferring a few million dollars into her savings account...

[brunofernandes]

She is not a self made billionaire she would be nothing without the Kardashian TV series nothing a million dollars if that from her makeup company if that

Reason 1
Parents wealth
Reason two
Parents fame
Reason 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 look at one and 2

I’m unsubscribing

“Self made” 😂😂 👌

[chukesobialo]

She is Super cute and savvy.

I will be a multi billionaire soon myself .

[gianmonahan]

I don't think she's self made but she is a good businesswoman and you can't deny that.

[lynnjackson]

Although she has worked to sell her make-up brand, she wouldn't have had the business capital to start a brand from scratch if she hadn't been born into a rich family.

[letinenoel]

I am watching every single Kylie Jenner vid so i can learn how to be a BILLIONARE I am learning soo much!!!

[-subscriberswithahammerad]

Because she is famous...

That’s why

[tomonjet]

She isn't self made she was already born in an extremely rich and famous family

[vijaykrishna]

How much money did she earn in her part time job while she was in high school and where did she work?
What research did she do to make her cosmetic products safe for use?
