How Much Are The Kardashians Worth?
Like the fate of Amelia Earhart or whether or not the Bermuda Triangle is real, the Kardashians' total net worth is one of the great mysteries of our time. Even though every second of their lives is documented and splashed across our screens, there's still no solid figure about just how much money they have in the bank. While we know that American royals Jay Z and Beyoncé are officially worth over $1 billion, the Kardashians' net worth is much harder to figure out — but I'm gonna give it a shot.
Let's start with a rough figure and try to wade through the enigma from there. In October 2014, Trust Advisor reported, "the Kardashian collective net worth [is] around $80 million. While that number seems a little low given that Kim [Kardashian] herself is estimated to be worth $40 million alone, they also like to live large."
Is it truly possible that Kim K is worth HALF of the Kardashians' entire net worth? I don't know what kind of number-crunching goes into that calculation, but it's not so far-fetched, especially after the freakish runaway success of her game, Kim Kardashian: Hollywood, which launched in 2014. Apparently the iPhone game, which is free for download but comes with a whole slew of things you can purchase including a private jet, made just over $43 million by November 2014. Love her or hate her, there's no denying that Kim K is definitely business savvy.
But beyond Kim, how much are the rest of the Kardashians worth? Let's try to estimate and break it into parts, to make things a little more digestible.
Bruce Jenner & Kris Jenner — $130 million
Celebrity Networth puts Bruce Jenner's stock alone at $100 million (holy crap, nice hustle, Bruce). The cash flows in not only from his appearances on Keeping Up With the Kardashians, but also from being a motivational speaker.
Kris Jenner's valued at around $30 million, mostly from her momager-ing ventures: she executive produces Keeping Up and the other Kardashian shows.
When Bruce and Kris got divorced in 2014, they split $60 million between them, but that doesn't mean that was the whole enchilada. Together, I'm gonna give 'em $130 mil.
Kourtney & Khloe Kardashian — $38 Million
Kourtney may have babies galore to take care of, but that doesn't mean the mama doesn't bring in the bacon, too. She's worth $20 million, from a combo of earnings from Keeping Up With the Kardashians, Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami, and the DASH boutique, among other money-making ventures.
Khloe — easily the most hilarious of the Kardashians — is also pretty serious when it comes to cash. She's worth $18 million, not only for all her Kardashian-related income but also for hosting red carpet events and X-Factor.
Kendall & Kylie Jenner — $7 Million
More little moneymakers! All of a sudden, Kendall has become one of the biggest Kardashians of the moment. Her modeling career is blowing up and she walks in many high-profile fashion shows. She's valued at $3 million, but she's only 19 years old, so I'm guessing that number is going to skyrocket in the coming years. She even recently signed on as the newest face of Estee Lauder. Fresh to death.
And if you thought 17-year-old Kylie was lacking in the green, guess again. She's worth right around $4 million, in large part because she's started selling her hair extensions with Kylie Hair Couture. She also reportedly just bought a huge home in Calabasas... and this girl is only 17. Meaning, she was born in 1997. Help us all.
Kim Kardashian — $85 Million
And then there's Kween Kim. She is, for all intents and purposes, a walking gold bar. Celebrity Networth puts her worth at $85 million, which, to me, sounds like a more reasonable number than the $40 million Trust Advisor estimated. (I never thought I would be of the opinion that $40 million sounded like a low number).
Like Starbucks, Kim is everywhere. Besides Keeping Up, she's probably bleeding you dry wallet-wise if you're playing her iPhone game. She has perfumes, clothes, endorsements, editorials. That's why her hair's so big: it's full of money. It's no surprise that Kim would be worth $85 million all on her own.
A Rough Total: $260 Million
According to my calculations, the Kardashians ring in right above $250 million. That's no chump change.
But If You Wanna Add The Boys...
Of course, there's Kanye West and Scott Disick, the married-intos and honorary Kardashians. Since I only ran the numbers for the Kore Kardashians, the $260 million could be adjusted if we were to factor in Kanye and Scott... and Rob. Oops, sorry Rob.
So, Kanye. He wasn't married into the Kardashian family until the summer of 2014,when he was sitting on about $100 million all by himself. It's lonely at the top, but maybe he'd feel a little better if he pooled his cash with his wifey and fam. That'd bring up the total to $360 million.
Scott Disick, or Lord Disick as he lovingly refers to himself, only has about $12 million to his name. He always LOOKS like a billion bucks, though, and isn't that what really matters?
Rob! So sorry to forget you! So sorry to say that you're only at $2.75 million... we'll round it up to three, because hell, why not? You're a Kardashian, too.
So with Yeezy, Disick and Rob putting their pennies in the pot, we're right at $375 million. If that's not American royalty, I don't know what is. Keep hustlin', Kardashian clan. I envy your savvy.
