Kylie Jenner Got Some Backlash After Showing Off Her Many Luxury Cars on Instagram
Kylie Jenner shared a Insta of her many luxury cars yesterday.Some fans weren't happy about it and left super critical replies to the pic.
Whether or not Kylie Jenner is a self-made billionaire is debatable (and a few months ago Kylie even admitted that maybe she's not toootally self-made), but one thing that isn't up for debate is that fact that Kylie is a billionaire and can afford crazy things, like a mini Louis-Vuitton-monogram-covered Lamborghini for her daughter Stormi, who, reminder, is a toddler.
Another thing that Kylie can afford? Adult-sized cars, and a lot of them. Yesterday Kylie shared an Insta of her posing with six of her luxury cars, including two Range Rovers, a Rolls Royce, a Porsche, a Lamborghini, and a Ferrari.
Some commenters thought that six luxury cars were maybe not the best use of money, and wrote things like:
overpopulation is the problem nobody want to address
"Some fans weren't happy about it and left super critical replies to the pic."
those fans paid their money for whatever it is she provides
What does she provide charger? I guess she's a Kardashian-in-law which begs the question. What do they provide? I guess I don't pay enough attention but one of us has to actually work.
I never did try to keep up with them
They're quick to slam her, but Jay Leno's okay.
Jay Leno restores and preserves some great cars
Jay Leno pays to have cars restored and preserved. His 4 paid for full time mechanics actually do the work.
I have no problem with how people spend the money, or how they earned it (so long as it was legal). Those that are upset with Jenner should be irate with Leno, he shows off his excess of wealth far more than she does. He is just far more nonchalant about it.
And he made all of his money with his clothes on,
on national and international tv every night.....
yeah, there's no difference.......
Did she make her money legally? Yes, or no?
She has a 5 car collection- Leno would scoff at it. Leno's collection is considered the top in the world by many. Leno shows off his cars at every opportunity; even has a tv show where he can show it off- and his rich friends' cars. Who cares? People need to grow up and start taking care of themselves.
Hypocrisy!
Why are people so concerned about what other people do with their own money?
Let her spend it any way SHE chooses!
If there is a God, why wouldnt He, She, It, send Kylie Jenner to hell , just for the hell of it?
If people who waste money the way she does get to heaven, what good is it?
Should someone tell you what to spend your money on?
What would give them that right, and would be accepting of their criticisms about how you spent your very own money?
Why would God send her to hell for the hell of it, or at all?
Do you know what her charitable donations are?
Do you begrudge all people with money, or is she just special for you?
She is making people stupid.
If that isnt a reason to send someone to hell, I dont know what would be.
Oh, FFS. If people are getting stupid, then that's on them.
I'm sure God will appreciate your invaluable help in that decision.
I am going to ask God to make my comments invisible to you so I dont have to read your drivel replies to me.
Please God.
Oh, is someone or something now making you read what I write?
Sorry John, people have worked very diligently over the years and continue to do their best to make themselves stupid. She just makes it chic.
About 20 years ago I was at a charity luncheon in Toronto where Rompin' Ronnie Hawkins (leader of the Hawks, i.e. his backup band more recently known as The Band) spoke. He said that he spends most of his money on wine, women and drugs, and the rest he wastes.
I suppose Rompin Ronnie (Whoever that was? I never heard of him) probably blew through the then unfathomable thousands and thousand he probably EARNED way back then. I am also pretty damn sure it was nothing compared with the BILLIONS and BILLIONS young Kylie Jenner is now estimated to be worth based purely upon the estimated future value of all the Chinese licensing agreements her mother's and her father's lawyers have negotiated for the use of her trademarked name "Kylie"...
It is a brave new world. That, I think, may be what people are outraged about.
Does embroidering the word "Kylie" on billions and billions of generic garments really increase their value or their quality? No, of course not, but Miss Jenner will still get her billions and billions anyway. The deals are signed. The ink is dry. It is good as money in the bank in today's world. Great work...if you can get it.
Isn't America supposed to be the land of opportunity? Do you feel the same way about Bill Gates?
You don't know who Hawkins was?
A great story about Hawkins. Carrying a briefcase and dressed in his usual hippie attire and looking weird as usual he walked into a Rolls Royce dealership in Toronto, opened the car door and sat in the driver's seat of a new Rolls Royce. The salesman freaked out, went over to him and told him to get out of the car, and in fact to get out of the showroom. Hawkins opened the briefcase, that had $100,000 in it and said I'm going to buy this car, and he did.
Talking Silver Cloud Blues (by Gord Lightfoot - about Rompin' Ronnie Hawkins)
I been singing rock most all my life, I got three little boys and a sweet young wife I feed 'em good 'cause I make good bread, thank God for the man it said Rock 'n' roll's the answer son, if you can't beat 'em, join em
Get your guitar, get your drum, get your set of iron clad ear drums
A thousand watt column amp, you're in business son
Got my first Cadillac in '54, since then I've had about five more
Mercedes Benz and a Porsche or two, the other day I was thinking this wouldn't do
'Cause the price of a Cadillac times two, comes out to the cost of a Rolls Royce new
But soon the Cadillac's obsolete and the Rolls Royce is still running sweet
Figure on four years instead of two, before you got to buy something new
Put an extra fifteen hundred in, to pay for the bar and air conditioning
You don't need no chauffeur, get your bartender and ride baby
So the other day I drove down from my hill, went to the bank to get me some bills
And boots and Levis worn in tan, I ambled into the Rolls Royce stand
The showroom floor was quiet that day, I walked up to a silver gray
Silver Cloud all sleek and long, standing there aloof and so alone
Such a beautiful sight I never did see, it sparkled and shone like a Christmas tree
It was really something to admire, I moved in close and I kicked a tire
Had to get some attention, I got some quickly
Well I was combing my hair down in the chrome, when up steps a man in a herringbone
Said good morning son, may I help you, I said yes sir I'd like to test drive this new Silver Cloud Two
Well he jumped back a pace or so and looked me over from my head to my toe
His face it formed into a sneer, he said sorry kid the car stays here
Don't you kick those tires, don't open the doors, don't touch the chrome
You're getting dandruff on the radiator
Well I got put on for an hour or more, they ushered me in the boss man's door
It wasn't long til I come out, the boss man followed up with a shout
Open the door there, look alive and take this boy for a test drive
In the silver gray, Silver Cloud, the little cat's loaded got lumps in his clothes
You gotta look for those, how do you think I got where I am today, hmm?
Now I'm driving along old 501, listening to them big tires hum
Got to get home before it's five, to take my wife and kids for a drive
Now the moral is, the part that's best, never judge a man by the way he's dressed
Don't brush him off or treat him wrong, he may be the singer of rock songs
Don't you forget it, what's that pounding noise, what's burning
Well the temperature's up and the oil is down, termites running around and around
On my dashboard, spot on my windshield, trade in time
Can't open youtube here, SP, but if you can open Tudou Music, go to the 15 minute mark on this video of The Last Waltz by The Band, where Ronnie Hawkins comes on to sing Who Do You Love.
While I do agree, I think the outrage may stem from flaunting it.
Kylie Jenner is an influencer. She tells young female saps (and I suppose a few males) what to spend their money on related to makeup, lifestyle products, fashion, etc. For some unfathomable reason related to how stupid and easily led human beings are, she has become a billionaire.
Jenner was one of the "influencers" that got young people to waste their money on that failed lifestyle music festival (Fyre Festival) a couple years ago that ended up the reason the organizer of the fraud is in prison now.
The prominence of a figure like Kylie Jenner among the rich and famous is merely an indicator of our decadent popular culture.
Kylie Jenner Is Instagram's Most Valuable Influencer & Her ...
May 03, 2018 · As People reported on Thursday, May 3, Kylie Jenner is the most valuable influencer on Instagram, per data from social media insights and analytics firm D'Marie Analytics. According to the company's calculations, one of Jenner's sponsored posts …
Who the hell cares?
Is anyone forcing people to follower her every move, and thought?
Personal accountability means nothing to some.
Kylie Jenner adds nothing of worth to society. Of course you could say that about a lot of people, but those other people arent billionaires.
She only influences those who want/need to be influenced.
There is old money, and there is new money.
Kylie Jenner is without a doubt, new money.
Dear Friend Sister Mary Agnes Ample Bottom: There is Karate and there is Judo.
Karate is an ancient form of self defense.
Judo (Jew Dough) is what I use to pay my bills.
My CPA has diagnosed me with shortness of funds.
He limits the amount of sales tax I can remit for the good of my financial health.
Does that make me new, old or just not enough money?

You, Sir, wear everything well; inside and out. That's what makes you the real deal.

For the life of me, I can't figure out why the Kardashian/Jenner clan has fans.
Worrying about other people's wealth will only make you unhappy.
You might think the way this girl acquired her wealth is absurd, and I would agree, but why does anyone care? She's not stealing it from anyone. To her haters, I have to ask: Why you mad, bro?
I don't care about this, other than the fact she is getting dragged a lot harder than Jay Leno or other male stars who have a love affair with cars and display their wealth in a similar fashion.
