According to recent reports, he is worth $6.6 billion! The bizarre aspect is that the rapper is literally dripping with cash, lavishing on luxury and costly items chosen just to his taste while being debt-free.
We will explain to you 10 crazy things Kanye West spends his billions on.
Number 10: Multiple homes
Preparation money for a mortgage might require years of diligent planning and saving. If you're a millionaire, on the other hand, you can afford to purchase numerous houses around the country. The wealthiest celebs reside in the wealthiest mansions. In January 2013, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West continued a long-standing trend by purchasing a Bel Air Crest house for $9 million (plus improvements).
If this estate wasn't enough, they purchased a Hidden Hills estate for $20 million in 2014 and recently introduced a ranch to the estate. Their newest real estate purchase is a 4,500-acre ranch in Cody, Wyoming, for $14 million, so the ranch concept would have to be the latest craze. Kanye even addressed himself to the mayor, and residents have reportedly requested photos of him.
Number 9: A movie theatre
We all enjoy movies, and we all appreciate the experience of watching one in a huge cinema, regardless of which one we get. Kim and Kanye share a passion for movies, and for her 35th birthday, Kanye planned to fulfill her greatest movie-going fantasies. When it comes to Kanye’s presents, this one is on the lower end of the spectrum. Kanye hired up Cinepolis Luxury Cinema at The Promenade in Los Angeles to mark Kim's 35th birthday.
The whole Kardashian-Jenner family except Khloe gathered for a private screening of "Steve Jobs." Even with the costly movie ticket fee of approximately $22.50 for general admission, renting out the entire theatre wasn't such a bad present, with large leather recliners and food delivered right to your seat. However, we may speculate that Kanye enhanced the experience by, for example, decorating the theatre with flowers (because we know that's his go-to gift), employing private chefs, and ordering specialty beverages. It wasn't your typical movie experience. Kanye spent $5,000 to rent out the entire space.
Number 8: Burger King
Kim maintains a nutritious diet that includes the newest culinary fads (like charcoal lemonade), but she still enjoys fast food. Kanye handed his bride-to-be a one-of-a-kind wedding gift: 10 Burger King Outlets, just before they got married. That's right, Kanye purchased his fiance 10 Burger King restaurants in Italy, France, and the United Kingdom to commemorate the day they were scheduled to marry. This may seem strange at first glance, but Burger King is a huge company with a lot of cash, and a portion of Kim's net worth is likely derived from those Burger King businesses.
Burger King felt it would be a good gesture to offer to serve their wedding since Kanye was so kind in purchasing so many restaurants, but the offer was unfortunately refused. We'll never know how a Burger King-catered-Kardashian wedding might turn out. It's also worth mentioning that her husband already owns a Chicago-based Fatburger franchise.
Number 7: Expensive haircuts
Getting your hair done at a salon might cost several hundred dollars. The longer your hair is, the more time and effort it takes to trim it. On the other hand, Kim isn't spending as much money on her hair, even though she undoubtedly spends thousands on it. While on the Glow in the Dark Tour with Rihanna in 2008, Rihanna's father remembers Kanye getting a haircut from his barber, Ibn Jasper, every single day without skipping a beat. For each haircut, Kanye paid Jasper a whopping $500 every day.
He also requested that his favorite barber relocates from Chicago to New York City for his daily haircuts. Then he invited the barber to accompany him on his travels across the country. We're not certain we could even label it a haircut because there's so little hair. Perhaps just a trim.
Number 6: Matching cars
While Kim and Kanye don't have any matching couple’s cars, it was claimed at the end of summer 2018 that Ye had surprised his wife with a $240,000 car as a surprise gift. The vehicle in question is a Mercedes Benz G-Wagon, which West purchased for his wife to have a car that matched with Kim's billionaire sister, Kylie Jenner. Kim was thrilled in the video revelation, which she shared on her Instagram account, over her husband's surprise present after she had hyped the car when they were in Miami.
Number 5: diamond teeth
Visiting the dentist is generally a nerve-wracking event. Some people are even concerned about being conned. On the other hand, Kanye West is well-known for his fondness for placing jewels in his teeth. Grills have long been a popular aesthetic in hip-hop, and the rapper frequently wears the symbol boldly on the lower section of his teeth.
He announced that he had medically changed his lower teeth with a diamond and gold studded grill on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in 2010. He installed the diamonds permanently because he believed they "looked cooler." In an interview with Dr. Jay Rashbaum for The New York Daily News, the doctor estimated that Kanye's procedure would most likely end up costing him slightly over $60,000.
Number 4: rare beds
While neither Kim nor Kanye are regarded as formal royalty in the same way that some of the world's most well-known (really royal) names are; however they are called Hollywood royalty owing to their high position among Tinseltown's aristocracy; in 2013, Savoir Beds created 60 Royal State Beds to celebrate Queen Elizabeth II's 60th year in power.
KimYe spent $923,000 on beds from the Savoir Royal State, composed of virgin lambswool, Mongolian horsehair, and star-lashed springs, to sleep like the highest echelon of English royalty. Just 60 of such beds have been manufactured, and Kim and Kanye are the proud owners of one of them.
Number 3: LV Trash Cans
Everything a wealthy and well-known celebrity does is supposed to be done in elegance, including bringing out the garbage. In 2018, Kim Kardashian used social media to expose her own Louis Vuitton garbage cans. Before the day, we were unaware that Louis Vuitton was involved in anything other than luxury retail, much alone garbage cans.
She is so fond of designer goods that she owns a set of blue and black recycling containers with the LV logo emblazoned on them. Because, after all, why not? You might as well have fashionable rubbish if you have the money to spend on something like this. We don't know how much Kim Kardashian spent on her Louis Vuitton garbage cans, but Louis Vuitton items can cost upwards of $10,000. We can only speculate on the price of their garbage cans.
Number 2: A fridge adorned with Swarovski crystals
We're not talking about the freezer when we say Kim Kardashian's refrigerator is chilly. We're referring to the glitzy gems studded on her refrigerator. However, this isn't a full-size refrigerator; instead, it's an under-counter refrigerator mostly used for drinks.
That may not seem interesting, but Kimye, being Kimye, had to have a customized fridge with Swarovski crystals. Kim Kardashian reportedly spent $1 million on a Swarovski diamond-encrusted refrigerator. Most celebrities spend $1 million on a lavish home, but Kim K spends hers on a Swarovski-encrusted refrigerator. Kim loves to flaunt her wealth, so a crystal-encrusted refrigerator sounds like something they'd have in their house.

Number 1: Gold plated toilet seats
This one is going to cost you a lot of money. Every homeowner wants to personalize the interior design of their house in a way that makes them feel at ease. Anything gold-plated screams royalty, and it seems like that's the impression Kimye is going for. Sure, it makes sense for one-half of the erstwhile rap group, The Throne, to want his, uh, "throne" to be made of gold, but some would argue that he and his queen are going too far with their spending.
In their Bel Air house, they allegedly paid $750,000 for gold-plated toilet seats. The property has since been sold, but it's unclear whether the toilet seats were included in the sale or whether Kimye moved them with them to their new home.
