The Kardashian women have capitalized on seemingly every business venture thrown their way since Kim Kardashian recorded and released her sexcapades with then-boyfriend Ray J in 2007.

Kris’s ex-husband Robert Kardashian died from cancer in September of 2003.
Rob Kardashian Jr. has escaped from the spotlight, gained a dangerous amount of weight, and has been rumored to be battling depression.

Scott Disick, Kourtney’s longtime boyfriend, has entered into rehab this month to take on his battle with drug and alcohol abuse.
The most recent Kardashian-touched man to bite it is former NBA basketball star Lamar Odom, 35. After tying the knot with Khloé Kardashian in 2009, Lamar has hit a streak of bad luck, including Khloé filing for divorce in late December of 2013.
