    The Kardashians put "all" of their Dash boutique inventory on a credit card in Kourtney Kardashian's name during their early career

    Kim Kardashian, who is now a billionaire, has recalled some of her early business decisions, admitting she took some "bold risks" over the years.


    Speaking on learning platform Masterclass about starting Dash with her sisters, she explained: "We were able to get a credit card, first solely in Kourtney’s name because she had the best credit."
    Kim admitted she and her sisters Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian used to pay off the "minimum" monthly amount on their credit card bill, but admits that is now "the worst advice".
    She added: "We would pay just the minimum every month when the credit card bill would come.
    "This is probably the worst advice because you probably should be paying your credit card bill off, but we just didn’t have the money."
    All's Fair actress Kim recently claimed the credit for persuading her sisters Kourtney, Khloe, Kendall Jenner and Kylie Jenner to sign up for their reality TV show Keeping Up with the Kardashians as a method of promoting their Los Angeles clothing store Dash.
    Kim told Time magazine: "I mean, the whole reason we wanted to start our show was to bring attention to our Dash store - at least that's how I was able to get my sisters to sign on.
    "I let them know that, you know, it'll bring such great promotion to our store. And they were in once they heard that.
    "I think I was the one who convinced everyone for sure. I really wanted it.
    "I really wanted to do a reality show since the day MTV's The Real World came out and I watched it with my best friend. I looked at her and I told her, 'That's what I'm going to do.' And she said, 'I'll be your manager', I think we were 11."
