Very few people can say they gave their mother a Birkin (with $50,000 in cash stuffed inside) or bought a mansion for their partner. But the Atlanta rapper Offset can.
How rich do you have to be to give away these gifts? Well, as of 2024, Offset’s net worth is reportedly around $28 million, so that’s an excellent place to start!
Read on to find out more about how Offset makes his money and how he spends it.

Offset’s Net Worth Breakdown
The obvious guess here is that the bulk of Offset’s net Worth came from his career in the music industry, which he started pretty early.
No, I’m not just talking about the Migos. Offset was in the industry when he was a little 11-year-old kid.
Don’t believe me? Check out Whitney Houston’s “Whatchulookinat” 2002 music video. I’ll bet you’ll be able to spot little Kiari dancing in the background.
His mom revealed that Kiari was also a backup dancer for the girl group TLC.
She didn’t disclose how much her son got paid to dance for Houston or TLC. However, whatever the number was, it’ll still be pale compared to even one of his Migos paychecks.
Earnings With the Migos
At their peak, the trio were making wads of cash. Forbes estimates that, at one point, they were grossing at least $150,000 for each tour stop!
Considering that the band has been active for years, it’s unsurprising that its combined net worth is aWorth$80 million.
Believe it or not, the Migos made $25 million in a single year. And if you think this is impressive, wait until you hear that they topped their record earnings the following year, earning a whopping $36 million.
As for the streaming revenue, The Fader once estimated that the band was getting $12,000–16,800 daily!
So, even as one-third of the hip-hop group, Offset must have made a fortune.
Fun fact: Offset’s relationship with his bandmates goes back to the sixth grade, but Quavo and Takeoff are related!
Going Solo
The Migos group disbanded after Takeoff’s shocking death. However, Offset’s career didn’t end there.
The Atlanta rapper went solo. He got his first taste of No.1 solo hits with “Taste.” But his first debut album was Father of 4.
Of course, this was before the birth of his youngest child, Wave Set. Father of 5 would be a more apt name if he were to re-release the album now, but I digress.
The main point is that Offset continued making money after his Migos era.
Investment Portfolio
While his rapping career is quite successful, Kiari Kendrell Cephus is more than just a musician. He’s into investments as well.
His investment and partnership portfolio includes:
- FaZe Clan (an e-sports venture)
- AXSD Media (a streaming and production company)
- HiDef Entertainment (a game studio)
- Genies (an avatar company)
Notably, Cephus managed to turn $245,000 into $700,000 million from one investment only. And who does the Atlanta rapper have to thank for this opportunity? His mom, Latabia Woodward. She’s the one who encouraged him to put his money into that avenue.
He didn’t discuss that particular deal in detail, though. (Sorry, you can’t follow his footsteps here!)
Offset doesn’t seem keen on giving investment advice, anyway. No, it’s not because he’s not good at it. He is. However, he doesn’t feel right handing out verdicts about what’s considered a “good” opportunity.
After all, he releases that what might work for one investor might not cut it for another.
The one tip he’ll give fans is never to invest with “emergency” funds. It’s got to be extra money, Which is solid advice right there!
Acting and Hosting Gigs
Aside from his investment portfolio and music career, Kiari Cephus is a host for the Skrrt with Offset reality TV series.
He also had a few acting credits over the years, including:
| Airing Date | Appeared on… | Played the Role of… |
| September 13, 2016 | FX series Atlanta
(episode title: “Go for Broke”) |
Himself |
| March 1, 2020 | NCIS: Los Angeles
(episode title: “Alsiyadun”) |
Kadri Kashan Khan (undercover CIA agent) |
| 2023 | “Baby Shark’s Big Movie” | Offshark
(voice only) |
Naturally, all three appearances mean more checks contributing to Offset’s net Worth!
Cardi B vs. Offset: Who’s More Rich?
Offset and Cardi B met in 2016, eloped in 2017, and had two kids together despite their on-and-off relationship.
Both are successful artists and have quite a bit of money. But you might be wondering who’s wealthier.
The scale is heavily leaning toward Cardi B. She’s worth around $80 million. But to be fair, she does spend a lot of money on her family and friends.
Cardi even dropped a $2-million check on Offset as a 30th birthday gift!
Who spends that much on a partner’s birthday gift, you ask? Well, this couple.
You see, Offset purchased a whole hillside mansion in the Dominican Republic to give to Cardi on her 29th birthday. The 8,000-square-foot property reportedly set him back $1.49 million.
Cardi was pleased with this gift for a few reasons. One of them is that she was toying with investing in rental properties in the Caribbean for a while, and Offset listened and delivered.
Offset and Cardi’s Assets
Offset and Cardi own a massive home just outside of Atlanta, Georgia—it’s 22,000 square feet, to be exact.
The couple didn’t disclose the price, but reports indicate that the property was listed for a little over $5.7 million before the sale.
Plus, they don’t have a shortage of luxury cars in their garage. Think Lamborghini, Rolls Royce, Bentley, and MacLaren.
Discovering a Philanthropic Side to Offset
Offset’s late grandmother struggled with bladder cancer. Sadly, she passed away in 2012.
This made the rapper instead dedicated to the fight against cancer, and he showed this dedication by raising $500,000 for the American Cancer Society.
Final Thoughts
It’s always hard to analyze and break down a celebrity’s net Worth. Even the estWorths can be off, sometimes.
I find the $28-million estimate believable considering all the revenue streams Offset has had over the years—Migos performances, solo releases, diverse investments, and a few acting roles here and there!
