Browse Kylie Jenner's alternative $400K birthday gift guide
We're still wading through the latest Kardashian news: It's been estimated that
Kylie Jenner raked in a staggering $400,000 worth of gifts for her 18th birthday, including a sweet ride from her boyfriend, Tyga, and a Birkin bag from momager Kris. The news sent us back to that old middle school exercise: What could $400K actually buy that could change your life forever? Well, you could start with ...
A four-year education!
College is not cheap. In fact, a four-year degree from NYU runs the average student $292,000! (Yikes.) So instead of that white Ferrari Tyga got Kylie...why not trade it in for a sexy degree? Taylor Swift lives right around the corner.
Ok, that leaves us with $108,000 to play with. What's next...
Empower strangers, bae.
Take those 30 million Instagram followers and de-selfie! (Just a little.) Non-profit organizations like Kiva allow Millennials (and non-Millennials) to loan money to third-world business enterprises, and the minimum investment is a way-attainable $25. But because we're on a baller Kylie budget here, we'll go with $40,000.
Happy investing!
We're down to $68,000. Time for a bespoke library!

Juniper Books has crazy-gorgeous book collections, from Kurt Vonnegut to Game of Thrones. These design fiends will even create Kylie her very own custom library! It's Goop-approved! Prices start as low as $50 for select titles, but we are going to turn up Kylie's living room.
Allotting $5,000. Boom.
Onto a year at the Le Cordon Bleu!
Because we want to DVR Kooking with Kylie, Kendall & Cara very much. (One year runs $50,000. Those ingredients are steep.)
$13K left. What to do...
OK, OK. Keep the Birkin, kid.
Oh, and Happy Birthday!
