Not trying to bag on her, but those lip injections freak me out. Looks better, but the thought of kissing lips with filler gives me the heebie jeebies. Ick.

Actually impressive, taking down Zuckerberg seems like an insane task. but yeaaaaaahhhhhhhhh thats a lot of money for a 21yo.

Well I'm sure she will put it good use for the betterment of our society!

Hopefully everyone salty about this gets motivated to get hustling.

I used to live like this until I realized how brainwashed and fucked our culture and the mentality it breeds has been.
lol I bet she tells the factory workers working day in and day out making her make up struggling to pay their bills to "start hustling".

Fuck her and her shitty family. I will never understand how people continue to support her and her trash family. We're are doomed.

Congrats to Kylie for bringing herself up from the days of poverty in the orphanage. Through decades of hard work, she has transformed herself into a leader of an industry that has helped all humankind and advanced us as a people into the future. If anyone deserves a billion dollars, it is this savior of humanity. We can all learn from her example. Brava!

The people in here congratulating her are probably the same people who say "Welp that's Capitalism, what are you gonna do?" when billion dollar corporations do shitty things for the sake of profits. Bonus points if they get mad at people criticising said corporations.

To really put this into perspective: pushing a makeup brand is really hard because the market is over-saturated with various brands and well-established players.

The fact that she's able to put that valuation to a BILLION dollars is remarkable regardless of her family's wealth.

What shitty things has her makeup company done?

So all you need to be a billionaire is to be born into a family of millionaires. Noted

"remarkable" does not mean "impressive"

young people are impressionable and think if they buy a tube of lipstick that has the name of their favorite celeb they will be successful and famous

there's nothing worth congratulating there

She has an easier path to becoming a self made billionaire than most but it's still quite an accomplishment. She hustled and capitalized on her beauty and family's brand to perfection. She's not a villain for being a billionaire

Hooray for consumer capitalism, nothing better than someone pulling themselves up by their bootstraps and making it in the world. I feel like if some of us here just had the motivation to start our own makeup empires I'm sure we would get there eventually. No doubt about it

Most of this is just an "evaluation" of the value of the company she owns.

Honestly don't think that should qualify someone as a billionaire; she certainly hasn't hoarded a billion in wealth, she owns something she PROBABLY could sell for close to a billion.

And the rest are probably lazy no good salty jealous people who say "but it's not fair!" Bonus points if they get mad at others for having a different opinion.

No, I don't mean it with the salty lazy jealous stuff, but it's oh so easy to label people isn't it...

Oh, and a company doesn't have to be worth billions to do shitty things for the sake of profit. Small businesses do the same.

She's afforded the luxury of being able to devote whatever time she wanted to her company and brand, how many people are able to do that? Fuck outta here with she earned it, maybe she did but it's easy to "earn" it when you are given a cheat code to bypass what others have to slog through and you or your parents ain't gotta worry about paying rent, keeping the lights on or food on the table.

The best part is how we all saw this as inevitable and just waited for it to happen.

Clearly, hoarding massive amounts of wealth is amazing. Woot woot.

I guess the possibilities are endless for complaining resetra. Which of you is going to start endorsing bullshit posts on Instagram?

Considering the amount of people in this thread defending this ridiculous headline, can we stop pretending that ResetEra is a progressive place?

I hate to break this to you, but Kylie isn't going to personally congratulate you for defending her on an online forum. When you're surrounded by people who live paycheck to paycheck and have less than 1% of the money she has, chances are people aren't going to be too happy with things like this.

*Endemic example that capital exists to be funneled between already monied interests and elites and will never help the working class and the system isn't built for them but against them*
