While Kanye West was caught flying economy, Kim Kardashian currently owns a $150 million private jet and numerous luxury cars.

“She can also rent a private jet or limousine service with just a snap of her fingers,” a source shared.

The 43-year-old reality TV star is praised for her savvy money management and earning skills. Kim’s business ventures, especially her fashion brand Skims, are reportedly thriving.

According to Dailymail, Kim Kardashian recently completed the renovation of a dreamy mansion in Malibu.

Kim purchased this retreat in September 2022 for $70 million and redesigned it to her minimalist taste, resembling the $60 million super mansion she and her children currently reside in at Hidden Hills.

In 2021, Kanye West also bought a mansion in Malibu for $53 million, later demolishing and customizing it. However, the mansion has since become dilapidated and abandoned.

The rapper also abandoned a 320-acre ranch in Calabasas, California. In photos taken by Page Six in May, the property appeared rundown and showed no signs of renovation.

In Touch cited sources revealing Kanye West’s dire financial situation, to the extent that he had to ask Kim Kardashian for assistance.

According to their divorce agreement, Kanye pays his ex-wife $200,000 per month in child support for their four children—a sum that once seemed insignificant compared to the rapper’s billion-dollar assets. However, sources disclose that given his current circumstances, Kanye struggles to maintain the agreement and has humbled himself to seek Kim’s support.
