Kanye West’s Net Worth, Billionaire Status... Probably Not

What Is Kanye West's Net Worth?
Kanye West has called himself a billionaire, although Forbes disagrees. Forbes estimates that over his impressive career, he has amassed a net worth of $240 million. However, this is based on reported income from before the release of his latest album, Jesus is King. Will it make up the $760 million required to catapult Kanye to billionaire status... probably not.

Kanye boasts an impressive income. In the course of 2019, he earned over $150 million dollars, placing him far ahead of other big names in hip-hop. In a field crowded with super-rich superstars, they're all eating Kanye's dust.
Kanye West's House & Real Estate
In 2014, Kanye and Kim West purchased a stunning mansion for $20 million. They've usually been quite secretive about their home and even joked about not allowing people to snap pictures of it.
If you get the chance to walk inside, you'll find that the family has a surprisingly sparse, minimalistic interior design philosophy.
Inside Kanye West's Multi Car Garage
Kanye West is famous for his love of collecting cars. More than that, so is Kim - when they married, their union resulted in the marriage of two amazing car collections.
They have dozens of luxury cars; Lamborghinis, Mercedes, Rolls-Royce and other famous names line their garages. The most expensive car in their collection is a custom Bugatti Veyron, an insane high-performance model that goes from 0 to 60 in 2.5 seconds.
Vacations Kanye West Style!
Kanye never holds back when it comes to booking impressive vacations. He doesn't give much warning for them, either.
On Valentine's Day 2020, he sprang a surprise Valentine's Day vacation to Bali on his wife Kim Kardashian and their adoring public. Kanye booked the best hotel, with a beachside room that looks out over an infinity pool.
