Kylie Jenner has been named the youngest ever self-made billionaire by Forbes. But debate has erupted over how 'self-made' she really is.
Last July, when Forbes put Kylie Jenner on the cover of its America's Richest Self-Made Women list, a controversy erupted over the magazine's description of her as"self-made."
Some argued that Jenner couldn't be self-made because she comes from a wealthy, well-known family. Others pointed out that she latched onto the social-media coattails of her half-sister Kim Kardashian West. Forbes responded with an explanation of its methodology. But the debate flared up again on Tuesday with Forbes officially naming Jenner, at 21, the youngest ever self-made billionaire, beating previous record holder, Mark Zuckerberg, who was given that title when he was 23.
— Merriam-Webster March 5, 2019 Determining what part of one's wealth is derived from hard work is more difficult than it used to be given the power and influence of social media and media exposure, says Michael Norton, a professor at Harvard Business School. Yet intangible boosts are not entirely new.
