Kim Kardashian is currently worth over $1 billion, but the reality star believes she’d have a much humbler life if she hadn’t found fame during her early 20s.
During a new episode of The Kardashians, the mother-of-four speculated what her life could’ve looked like if she chose a different path. Kim said she thinks she’d be working at Macy’s.

The SKIMS founder then shared that her own mother, Kris Jenner, struggles with guilty over pushing her kids into stardom. “Something that is hard for my mom is, she’s been really sad, like what did I do?” Did I create them to get to this level where…” Kim trailed off.
Kim’s name was first catapulted into fame when a sex tape featuring her and singer Ray J was released. Kim has always maintained the video was meant to be private and has fuelled rumors her ex released the tape on his own.
However, last year, Ray J accused Kris Jenner of orchestrating the tape’s release to bolster Kim’s career at the expense of his own.
“I’ve never leaked anything. I have never leaked a sex tape in my life. It has never been a leak,” Ray told Daily Mail. “It’s always been a deal and a partnership between Kris Jenner and Kim and me and we’ve always been partners since the beginning of this thing.”
The fame from the tape led Kim’s family to score a reality television deal with E! and so Keeping Up with the Kardashians was created. KUWTK had over 20 seasons in its 14 seasons on the air, lasting from 2007 to 2021.
By the end of the show, the Kardashian-Jenners were reportedly earning millions per season. The notoriety also helped them promote their brands and businesses.

The family then signed a deal for another show titled The Kardashians with Hulu, valued at $100 million. The first season debuted in 2022, and it’s been going strong ever since.
Needless to say, Kris Jenner has helped her family create an empire thanks to their reality fame. Kim has various skincare, beauty, and fashion lines.
Het net worth is only slightly higher than that of her younger sister, Kylie Jenner, who created a makeup company based on speculation about her lip fillers. Kylie is close to having a billion-dollar net worth herself from the success.
It’s fair to say that Kim as well as her family’s lives would’ve been very different if she didn’t pursue fame and did end up working at Macy’s.
