The model reportedly earned an estimate of $51 million between June 2015-June 2016 before taxes and fees and has about 165.6 million social followers across all her platforms.

Forbes reports that Kim's mobile game makes up about 40% of her earnings and it won't be stopping anytime soon.

Meanwhile, as a digital entrepreneur, Kim makes a whole lot more money from her Instagram endorsements, subscription app and Kimoji than anything else.

Speaking with Forbes back in June, Kim said, “When you get upfront money, that’s great.

“But if you believe in yourself, you should definitely make sure that you get as high a percentage of the revenue as possible.”

Forbes also reports that the Kardashian clan fills up six of seven spots on their all-female, first-ever ranking of America’s Top-Earning Reality Stars, with their cumulative earnings at $131 million.

The Kardashian-Jenners have earned a cumulative $122.5 million combined minus any earnings to Caitlyn Jenner, Rob Kardashian or Blac Chyna who made less that $8.5 million this year.

According to the reports, the bulk of their earnings actually come from endorsements and the second-ranked in this area is Kylie Jenner with $18 million.

Kylie who started her makeup line this year with her $29 lip kits is already making nine-figure revenue from its sales.

Throw in her Kylie Jenner app and the Kendall & Kylie game, plus the family's reality TV show, the teenager is earning big. She is also hot on Kim's tail, demanding some serious cash from social media endorsements.

Kendall Jenner comes as third on the list, with $17 million earnings and is already on the list for Forbes highest paid models.

This is made possible by the extra cash she makes outside of modelling from 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians', the Kendall & Kylie game, and her app.

Khloe Kardashian comes fourth on the list and despite the cancellation of her 'Kocktails with Khloe' show, her cash flow remains steady with her new ventures such as Good American jeans, her book, as well as lots of social media endorsements.

Whit Keeping Up with the Kardashians' in its 12th season, the Kardashian-Jenner clan continue to rake in millions daily.

Who said naked selfies do not do the trick? The Kardashians beg to differ.
