Kylie Jenner turns 21 next month, and yet she is already worth more than $900 million. In fact, it looks like she’ll break the billion-dollar mark in no time, making her the youngest ever self-made billionaire.

At just 20-years-old, Kylie Jenner is proving to the world that she is more than just a reality TV star, she is a true entrepreneur. Not only is she gracing the cover of Forbes Magazine for the August issue, but it seems that her net worth will soon surpass the $1 billion mark, making her the youngest self-made billionaire ever.

Perhaps the most shocking aspect of this news is not that Kylie Jenner is about to make history, but how she did it and how long it actually took her to make it happen. The reality star did it by leveraging her assets and beauty knowledge to make her own fortune, while also making a name for herself. And she did it all in just three years!

In the three years since Jenner launched Kylie Cosmetics, the beauty mogul has been able to amass over $630 billion dollars in sales. And according to the magazine, she actually owns 100 percent of her company and has just 12 employees total.

Her makeup company isn’t the only way Kylie Jenner makes her money. She also has her reality show contract, other TV deals, and endorsement deals, all of which contributes to her immense fortune, which Forbes lists at a whopping $900 million at this time.

On the whole, her fortune surpasses even her own big sister, Kim Kardashian West, who is said to be worth $350 million, according to BuzzFeed. How did she do it? By utilizing the tools at her disposal – her name, her social media following, and her own love of beauty.

Clearly, Kylie Jenner knows what she is doing when it comes to running a business and making money. And on social media, it seems as if people are not only stunned, but also shook and even a bit envious of the reality star.

Perhaps the biggest argument on Twitter was not even about how much money she is worth or how she made her fortune, but rather about the definition of “self-made” and if she actually qualifies for that title. Either way, it sounds like Kylie Jenner is still going to be a billionaire at 21, and no one can really take that accomplishment away from her.
