In the age of influencers, social media has become a place you can actually make a bit of cash – but these folks are taking cashing in to the next level!
Instagram has been around for almost seven years now and in that time it has evolved from just being a simple photo-sharing app to one of the most dominant social media platforms.
Even though it’s free to use, Instagrammers have figured out a way to monetise their posts and get filthy rich from just posting a picture.
HopperHQ, an Instagram scheduling site, used both internal data and public information to create an Instagram rich list and ranked the top 10 users by how much they earn per post.
It won’t shock you that the entire Kardashian/Jenner clan is on there!
