The Amount Of Money Kim Kardashian’s Emoji App Made Per Minute Will Make You Want To Puke, Cry & Reconsider Your Life Choices
Although it might have not broke the internet, Kim Kardashian’s Kimoji App definitely took the apple store by surprise, a big surprise!
If you were ever thinking Kim Kardashian is rich for no reason you should really reconsider that! A while back we reported that her App-Game was raking in over $300 million per year in revenue and she did it again!
This time with an emoji app called “Kimoji” which has 250 emojis depicting her life and persona.
You might have heard about it since it was everywhere when it was launched and it got a ton of media coverage.
But not even Kim was expecting it to be this big!
Let me put it this way, if you hear just how much money the Kimoji app was – and is still going strong btw – bringing in you’ll either want to puke and re-think your life.
So, ok, you’re expecting it to be making a ton of money right? But how much is really a ton of money?
Answer: 1 MILLION DOLLARS PER F*CKING MINUTE!
Yes, you are reading that right!
The app costs $1.99 in the Apple Store and NYPost reports that during the launch, at one point over 9,000 people were buying the app EVERY SECOND at that rate the 35-year old mother was grossing over $1,000,000 per minute.
She took to her insanely large following on social media and all that influx of traffic resulted in the Apple Store going down for a few minutes.

Kim Kardashian has a net worth in 2016 at just under $100 Million but she has been diversifying her income streams in the last couple of years with the biggest surprise being in the tech area.
You might not like or approve on how Kim managed to reach her fame status, but she’s been playing the media so well and from a marketing perspective she’s dominating!
Kim Kardashian is one of the (if not the most) influential person on social media right now and these numbers only do more to prove the type of star-power she can bring to the table.
