Kylie Jenner sold a majority stake in her makeup brand to CoverGirl parent company Coty Inc. for $600 million Monday, Business Insider's Dominic-Madori Davis previously reported. The deal, expected to close in 2020, values Kylie Cosmetics at $1.2 billion.

We took a look at the lives of the world's five youngest billionaires — all 28 years old and under — to see how they spend their days and their seemingly unlimited funds.

From zooming Ferraris to international dressage competitions, scroll down to meet the world's five youngest billionaires, presented by age in ascending order, and see how they spend their fortunes.

John Collison is the fifth-youngest billionaire and the second-youngest self-made billionaire in the world.

Source: Forbes



The 29-year-old Irish entrepreneur founded payment company Stripe with his brother in 2010, which went on to make the pair both billionaires in their own right after a deal in 2016. John is now worth an estimated $2.1 billion.

Source: Forbes



Collison was studying his undergraduate degree at Harvard when he and his brother launched the company, but he quickly dropped out after Stripe gained momentum. Now, his days are spent pursuing hobbies and things on his bucket list, like flying across the Atlantic.

He also enjoys partaking in fun runs ...

... and long-distance treks and pursuits, sometimes dragging the whole Stripe office along with him.

Despite his technological genius and adventurous lifestyle, Collison still seems to be amused and amazed by the little things in life, like this coffee cup sporting a "pocket cookie."
