Forbes just named Kylie Jenner the youngest "self-made" billionaire ever and the Twitterverse has issues with the "self-made" description when it comes to Kylie's milestone.

After Forbes posted Kylie's title on Twitter, Dictionary.com responded, "Haven't we gone over this? Self-made: Having succeeded in life unaided."

Other users agreed with the response and also responded to the sentiment. One user said, "Is it impressive what she's done? Absolutely. Should she have respect for it? 1000%. Is she self-made? Abso-freakin-lutely NOT."
