Here’s How Kim Kardashian and Kanye West Really Spend Their $600 Million Fortune
There may be a ton of rich celebrities all around the world, but no A-lister does extravagance better that Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, better known as Kimye.
The couple doesn’t have a problem spending big bucks on lavish items and are always buying things that they don’t necessarily need but most definitely want.
With a combined net worth of $600 million, the pair continues to out-do themselves with their over-the-top purchases.
From opulent gifts to customized furniture, here are all of the insanely expensive items Kimye has spent their money on over the years.
The couple dropped millions for their three mansions
For some people, it takes years for them to pay off their dream home, but for Kardashian and West, they bought all three of their lavish mansions right on the spot.
The first home the couple ever bought together was their Bel-Air mansion back in 2013.
According to People, the pair purchased the six-bedroom, eight-bathroom home for $11 million and did some major renovations to it over the years.
While it was a great starter home, Kimye sold the mansion for 17.8 million in 2017.
A year after purchasing their Bel-Air home, the Wests bought their Hidden Hills mansion for $20 million and have been living there ever since.
And if two mansions weren’t enough, the couple recently bought another huge home — this time in Cody, Wyoming — for $14 million. The pair purchased the 4,500-acre ranch in September 2019.
To round out their real estate empire, Kardashian and West just bought a $6.3 million plot of land in Palm Springs, where they could possibly build another massive mansion to add to their collection of lavish homes.
They spent $30,000 on a custom bathroom sink
In April 2019, Kardashian West took to her Instagram Stories to show off the ultra-unique feature inside her Hidden Hills mansion.
While giving a tour of her massive master bathroom during her Vogue “73 Questions” video, fans were left unsettled after seeing that her bathroom sink appeared to have faucets but no basin.
After receiving a ton of questions surrounding this great mystery, Kardashian explained to fans that the sink is a custom piece that has a slight slope — instead of a basin — which makes it look cool but still operates the same as a regular sink.
Now you’re probably wondering how much a customized piece such as this one cost the famous couple?
According to Yahoo Finance, this sink has an estimated cost of $30,000, which seems like mere chump change for the couple.
They once paid $750,000 for gold-plated toilet seats
While this has yet to be confirmed or denied, it was previously reported that Kimye bought gold-plated toilet seats for their Bel Air mansion.
Though we don’t really know anyone who would want a gold-encrusted toilet, it seems like Kardashian and West thought that they deserved to sit upon, uh, “throne,” made of nothing but the best material.
Kardashian pays $168,880 per month for her glam squad
Since she is in the spotlight 24/7, Kardashian West needs to look her best at all times.
Which is why she has a hardworking glam squad who makes her look her absolute best day in and day out.
From hairstylists to teeth whitening experts, the reality star only uses the best people in the business to get her looking as flawless as she does. But having a whole team fawning over her daily comes at a hefty price.
In 2018, iHeart Radio reported that Kardashian’s beauty expenses cost roughly $168,880 per month, which, for an average person, wouldn’t even be able to be budgeted into their monthly bills.
The famous pair’s purchased many expensive gifts for their four children
Now that Kardashian and West are the proud parents of four young children, they continue to do everything they can to make sure their kids are happy — even if that means spoiling their little ones to the best of their abilities.
Over the years, Kimye has bought their kids some pretty expensive presents, and though they only believe in purchasing nothing but the best, some of the gifts were way over the top.
From buying their daughter North $50,000 Lorraine Schwartz half-carat diamond studs when she was only 16-months to giving daughter Chicago a $550,000 nursey, the Wests don’t even look at price tags when it comes to their kids.
Kardashian and West buy each other lavish gifts
Since tying the knot in Florance, Italy, back in 2012, Kardashian and West have gone above and beyond to prove their love for one another.
One of the ways they’ve done so is by showering each other with opulent gifts that not only proved to be expensive but have shown the other just how strong their love is.
Over the years, West has dished out quite a lot of money for his leading lady and continues to gift her items that cost nothing less than a few thousand.
From custom Hermés Birkin handbags to a $227,300 neon-green SUV that matched her “frozen yellow” hairdo, West has gone above and beyond to put a smile on his wife’s face.
As for Kardashian, she’s given her husband quite the gifts throughout their eight-year marriage.
From shelling out $440,000 to rent out an entire island for the rapper’s 40th birthday to gifting him a $750,000 Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4, the reality star doesn’t mind opening up her wallet for the man who holds the key to her heart.
Thanks to Kardashian and West, we now know that love has no price tag.
