The Kardashians are some very wealthy people, completely dominating reality TV, Instagram, and the cosmetics industry, along with the darkest recesses of our collective psyches, of course.

For example, Kylie Jenner was recently touted as the youngest ever “self-made” almost-billionaire, thanks to her cosmetics company that earned her a $900 million net worth, and $166.5 million this past year.

But she’s not the only Jenner making bank and topping lists — Forbes just revealed Kendall Jenner to be the highest-paid model of 2018, raking in a cool $22.5 million thanks to contracts with companies like Estée Lauder, Adidas, Swarovski, and Calvin Klein.

We also know that thanks to her massive follower count on social media, Jenner makes $500,000 per Instagram post, which definitely helps supplement her multi-million dollar salary.
