Kane Lim (born 5 December 1989) is a socialite, online personality and the founder of investment firm Kix Capital.[1][2] As of February 2021, he has over 368,000 followers on Instagram.

Most recently in January 2021, he was featured as a cast member of Netflix’s reality show Bling Empire.[3][4] Kane emerged as one of the breakout stars of the show due to his down-to-earth and humorous character, and subsequently received media coverage from several media publications.[5][3][6]

Background

Family

Kane Lim was born on 5 December 1989 and is the eldest out of three siblings.[3][7][8] Despite various news sites claiming that Kane’s father was a billionaire, Kane himself clarified that his parents are not billionaires, instead helming a billion-dollar company that deals with real estate, oil and shipping.[9]

Kane has also described himself as the “black sheep” of the family, elaborating in a Yahoo!News interview:

“All I can tell you is that my grandparents came from Communist China with nothing. They’re so private; even in the way they dress, they're so simple. They don't flaunt anything. I'm the only one with social media and everything.”[9]

Throughout the years, Kane has also declined to reveal more details about his family, citing privacy reasons.[10]

Education

Kane Lim is an alumnus of Anglo Chinese School (ACS), having studied at its Barker Road institution and later ACS International.[3] From 2010 to 2013, Kane studied at private college Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising (FIDM) in Los Angeles, California where he obtained his Bachelor of Arts in Merchandise Marketing.[4]

Personal life

Kane Lim is a practicing Buddhist, having been introduced to the religion in 2018 by one of his friends.[9][11] In a 2021 interview with Tatler Hong Kong, he was quoted as having said the following about his faith:

“About three years ago, I was in a bad place and was overweight, depressed and didn’t know what to do with my life. A friend introduced me to Buddhism and I had a very spiritual moment and when I dived into the understanding of Buddhism and studied it, it just became one of the only religions that made sense to me. When I went deeper, I got a hold of what life meant and the cause and effect of things.” [11]

After completing his Bachelor of Arts at FIDM in 2013, Kane Lim has resided in Los Angeles ever since, where he is a licensed real estate agent and manages his company Kix Capital.[12][2][9]
