Kim Kardashian earned $1 million dollars for speaking at a hedge fund conference

Kim Kardashian earned $1 million dollars for speaking at a hedge fund conference.

This was for a single appearance at the iConnections Global Alts conference at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach hotel on January 31.

Kardashian's appearance was a part of Miami's "Hedge Fund Week," a networking event for business and finance professionals with tickets costing $10,000.

"It was standing room only in the room where she spoke, with people spilling into the hallway," iConnections CEO Ron Biscardi told Page Six. "We had even more people in overflow rooms where the video was streamed to accommodate the sell-out crowd."

"[Kardashian] received huge applause when she walked out onto the stage," Biscardi said. "I was happy to see so much support for a female fund manager in an industry dominated by men."

Kardashian launched her private equity firm in September 2022, along with her partner Jay Sammons, with the intent to invest in consumer products, hospitality, digital commerce, entertainment, and more, per The Wall Street Journal.
