Rob Kardashian Net Worth

There’s no such thing as a poor Kardashian. The earned Rob Kardashian net worth total of $1.16 million comes from TV and business deals, but his inheritance from father Robert most probably puts him at over $8 million. Rob certainly doesn’t measure up to big sister Kim or even half sisters Kylie or Kendall. His net worth of over a million amounts to very large table scraps from the family’s TV empire. Many sources online put his net worth at $2 to $3 million, but since those don’t account for taxes or expenses, they’re almost certainly too high. The MoneyNation analysis below accounts for all earnings from Rob’s 113 TV appearances and four business ventures. The bigger picture though is that he could do nothing but play video games for the next 20 years and he’d still be a rich man thanks to his stepfather Caitlyn Jenner’s fortune of $100 million.

It’s hard to see why the Rob Kardashian net worth tally isn’t bigger. Who wouldn’t want a $15 pair of socks proclaiming “Classy Bitch” or “DILF?”

Compared to sister Kim’s fortune of $149 million, the earned Rob Kardashian net worth sum of 1.16 million is 1/128th as big. Kim is the source of the siblings’ fame and fortune. Her illegally released sex tape and the resulting lawsuit in 2007 tossed her into the world of fame like a fish into a gilded fishbowl. That could have happened to almost anyone but what Kim and her family did next is inspirational. They turned that fame into money, Midas-touching the widespread fascination and transforming it into multiple hit TV shows, perfume lines, makeup businesses, fashion enterprises, modeling careers, endorsement empires, publishing concerns and a dozen other income streams. Rob Kardashian is kind of along for the ride, appearing in TV episodes and starting his own halfhearted sock business but otherwise content to bask in the reflected limelight. His lack of the Kardashian zest for turning attention into cash is evident in how he lags behind the rest of his family. Brother in law Kanye West has 57 times more money than the Rob Kardashian net worth sum with $66 million. Mom Kris Jenner has 17 times more with $20 million. Half sister Kendall has 27 times more with $31 million. Even half sister Kylie has nine times more with $10 million. Kanye has his music, Kendall has her modeling and Kylie has her Kylie-K Lip Kits. Rob has appearances in his sisters’ TV shows and a failing sock biz.

As of 6/13/16, Rob Kardashian’s net worth could jump. He’s got a new reality TV series lined up with wife Blac China and their new baby. Will the show take off? Time will tell whether Rob does indeed have some of the Kardashian magic.

When Kim and her sisters found themselves in the public eye and managed to cash in on it to the tune of millions, Rob was taken along for the ride. The upward slope in the graph above is thanks mostly to Rob’s 69 appearances on Keeping Up with the Kardashians. He has tried his hand at other earnings sources but so far they haven’t panned out in any significant way.

Rob Kardashian Net Worth from Business

Rob Kardashian has ventured into business, but not with the zest or success of his sisters or half sisters. Kim Kardashian has made over $100 million from sales of numerous popular fragrances. Kylie Jenner is set to become a makeup tycoon with her Kylie-K Lip Kits. Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian split the profits from Keeping Up with the Kardashians equally with sister Kim. Rob’s list of solo income streams meanwhile includes two very minor endorsement deals and a manager position for the now defunct girl band BG5. All of those deals paid out $60,000 total. His biggest, most successful business venture to date is his Arthur George socks line. Rob founded the line in 2012 and since then it has added an estimated $150,000 to the Rob Kardashian net worth figure.

Rob Kardashian Net Worth Calculations

Rob Kardashian net worth calculations

It’s really difficult to see why these babies aren’t just flying off the shelves.

The Rob Kardashian net worth amount of $1.16 million is impressive for a 29 year old. It’s just maybe not impressive for a 29 year old Kardashian. One good point about Rob’s relatively low earnings is that they put him in a lower tax bracket. Rather than the 39.6% federal rate paid by those earning over $450,000, Rob Kardashian only has to pay about 28% like normal humans. That still means he’s paid $756,000 in taxes in his lifetime. He has also paid out $306,000 in expenses. In truth his expense bill is probably bigger than that since $306,000 only gives him an average spending level of about $30,000 per year. That said, with Caitlyn and Kris Jenner as his parents and with his portion of the inheritance from father Robert Kardashian’s fortune of $30 million, Rob’s expenses are probably largely covered. The truth is, calculations like this are probably unnecessary. The real story is that Rob Kardashian is rich. If he inherited one fourth of Robert Kardashian’s net worth of $30 million, that puts him at over $8 million. Stepdad Caitlyn Jenner and mom Kris Jenner have a combined fortune of $120 million. Calling him the poor Kardashian is like calling a triathlete disabled just because he happens to be joyriding in a wheelchair.
