So, how does Kendall Jenner earn that much money?

Keeping Up With The Kardashians

While America was watching her grow up, she was watching her bank account grow at a rate of $5,000 per episode of KUWTK! 

She also has been featured on Kourtney & Kim Take Miami, Kocktails with Kourtney, and I Am Cait.  

As of 2016, she's reportedly earned more than $17 million from her TV appearances.

Modeling

Kendall began modeling at age 14 when she signed with Wilhelmina models where she worked on campaigns such as Forever 21’s 'Rocker Babes with a Twist' and cover’s of Teen Vogue

She began her high-fashion modeling career in 2014 and has since walked for Chanel, Vera Wang, Victoria’s Secret, Oscar de la Renta, Marc Jacobs, Fendi, and Givenchy, just to name a few. 

Her annual earnings from modeling jumped from $4 million in 2015 to $10 million in 2016! 

Then, in 2017, she became the highest paid model in the industry, earning a reported $22 million, according to Forbes. 

These big jumps can be attributed to some major multi-million dollar deals with Estee Lauder and Calvin Klein. She is the new face of both brands, promoting the companies to her loyal followers.

Business Ventures


Kendall has also capitalized on the retail industry. 

She and her sister, Kylie Jenner, created a line in collaboration with Topshop that reportedly exceeded all sales expectations. 

Now, the sisters have an entire fashion brand appropriately named Kendall + Kylie which recently launched a swimwear line in efforts to fill the $300 million swimwear void after Victoria’s Secret retired their swim collection. Talk about smart!

Kendall also earned $100,000 from her collaboration with OPI, where she created just two nail polishes.

All of these business ventures and endorsements, combined with sales from her novel, Rebels: City of Indra, have earned her $18 million. 

On top of that, her lifestyle app has brought in about $5 million in revenue. 

Seriously, this starlet knows how to maximize her income streams!

Social Media

Kendall Jenner’s social media presence is on par with some of the top influencers of Instagram

She can earn an eye-popping $300,000 to $500,000 for one sponsored Instagram post, $50,000 for one sponsored tweet, and $50,000 for one sponsored Facebook post. 

Considering she posts on these platforms daily, that is a TON of money.

Her 95.4 million Instagram followers don't seem to mind though – they adore her images on social media.

Her sister, Kylie Jenner, whose 2018 net worth is $900 million, also earns BIG money with sponsored social media posts.

Controversy

Because she has grown up in the public eye, she is not without her fair share of controversy. 

Recently, she was accused of leaving no tip for a bartender.  A picture of her bill went viral, causing an uproar that someone with this amount of money wouldn't leave a tip! There has been speculation that it's all been faked. What do you think?
