North West may already own a pair of $50,000 diamond stud earrings, but her mother insists she won’t be handed everything on a silver platter.
Speaking to ES magazine, Kim Kardashian, who married rapper Kanye West in 2013, says their daughter will have to find a job and pay her own way just like she did.
“I was saying that earlier to my friends, ‘I wonder what [North’s] first job is gonna be’. And they were like, ‘What? She’s gonna have a job?’ and I was like, ‘Are you kidding me? Of course she is’. She will have to work for what she wants.”
The reality TV star said that despite her family’s wealth, she worked at a clothes store when she was at school and had to save for what she wanted.
“I saved up for this Dolce & Gabbana dress I really wanted, or like in high school these Prada shoes that my parents wouldn’t buy me.
“And I remember they were $400, and I had to save for the entire year to get them?…?We didn’t get anything [from our parents], we had to get a job if we wanted it. So I was working in a clothing store and I would save and save.”
Asked what the 16-month-old might do for work, Kim responded “I don’t know. She loves fashion. Maybe she’ll be a designer. Who knows? It’s too early to tell.”
