Celebrating mindless striving culture reeks of Asian chauvinism and begs the question of why the most high impact individuals - from technologists to artists - do not have cookie cutter childhoods that were mainly spent being groomed for the Ivy League.

Based take, but a bit rich to diss Kim K when she herself """works"""" as VP and board member of some random think tanks. Guess she's just jealous she wasn't pretty enough for the Kim K life path

Kim K and her mom took a s*x tape with Brandy's little brother and turned their whole family into billionaires. While I agree they're shit people on a basic human level, you have to give credit to their hustle. They changed the game on how celebs self-brand, whether you like it or not the Kardashian clan are marketing innovators and the market has rewarded them because they're good at what they do.

Are you out of your fricking mind? You think the richest Armenian girl in the world just kind of fell into this?
I could have had a tape of OJ Simpson fricking me in the butt and it wouldn't gotten me a penny.

Stepdad. Her dad was a lawyer on OJ's defense team. She started with a leg up for sure, but there are plenty of wealthy plastic socialites who didn't spin that into billions of dollars.

The princess of the Armenian mob, well, maybe she had a leg up.
Jesus Fricking Christ. Am I speaking to a bunch of goddarn children here? Do any of you r-slurs understand that Armenians have an organized crime underground? This isn't some racist thing I'm saying. It's like you're in the 1920s and you're telling me that Al Capone probably made all of his money honestly.

To be fair as well, women like Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian made their own money through being able to monetise their notoriety and image in a way that many others couldn't. In their own way they had enough charisma and/or talent to lean in to what made them popular, even as it made them hated and mocked, making hundreds of millions of dollars along the way.
I don't think society is better for influencers or any other people attempting that same career path, but in a 'don't hate the player hate the game' situation, respect can be given the Michael Jordans of monetising the attention economy.
