Here's How Kylie Jenner Became 'The Youngest Self-Made Billionaire' On The Planet

Kylie Jenner enters the very exclusive club of the youngest billionaires on the planet. At only 20 years old, the young woman has appeared on the cover of the prestigious magazine Forbes for its August edition.

Her colossal fortune, estimated at $ 900 million, was forged primarily through the earnings of her cosmetics brand, named after her, which she founded three years ago.

'Youngest self-made billionaire'

No wonder when we know the huge popularity and incredible influence of Kylie Jenner, who has more than 110 million subscribers on Instagram. The star is one of the 10 most followed personalities on this social network.

With only seven employees under her command, she has managed to build an empire, 'a new model for using celebrity,' says Forbes, who also called the young entrepreneur 'the youngest self-made billionaire'.

People online are pretty sceptical about this title, however, since Kylie has been known since the age of 10 thanks to her family and the success of Keeping Up With The Kardashians.

Nevertheless, her famous sisters and her mother, Kris Jenner, were certainly proud, taking to social media.

'Billion dollar baby!' wrote big sister Kim, while mum Kris Jenner said she was 'so proud' of her daughter's incredible journey.
