The Kardshian family has produced the youngest and richest self made billionaire. Kylie Jenner, 21, has been given the title after months of speculation by Forbes as it unveiled its annual billionaires’ list. She has snatched the title from Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg who was 23 when he made his first billion in 2008.
She is both the youngest self-made billionaire and the youngest billionaire on Forbes’ ‘young billionaires’ list. Jenner has amassed a personal net worth of $1billion through her wildly successful range of make-up, Kylie Cosmetics.
Jenner is the youngest in her famous, reality TV family and the first to hit the billion dollar landmark. She was surprised by the success of her cosmetics company which was only founded in 2015 but is now worth an estimated $900million.
Jenner, who owns a 100 per cent stake in it, has separate income from endorsements and her family’s reality TV show. She also owns an impressive portfolio of real estate.
