Forbes really knocks it out of the park with their business prowess

Wilhelm Fitzpatrick@dcm the only difference between a grifter and a successful billionaire is that the latter's pile of grift hasn't collapsed _yet_
Farce Majeure@dcm the thing about towing the agenda of capital is that you don't need to celebrate being good at business, only getting in to business.
@vathpela or just be photogenic
Pete Puma@dcm I have a buddy who worked for 20+ years at Dow Jones, brilliant guy. He’s working for a crypto company now. We joke about it. He has no illusions about how it’s going to end.
Rotten Apple@dcm a nice reminder that success, talent, and knowledge can’t be measured by popularity.
Doc Edward Morbius ⭕@dcm Antisignal!!!

@dcm let's just say the Forbes 30 under 30 list is ageist and fucking bullshit.
David M@dcm It's the Madden curse but for business.

William Hamilton@dcm “Dr. Evil…I’ve spent 30 years of my life turning this two-bit evil empire into a world-class multinational. I was going to have a cover story in ‘Forbes’. But you, like an idiot, wanted to take over the world. And you don’t realize there is no world anymore. It’s only corporations.”
Tom_Huth@dcm One thing what I recognize is, when business press is strongly celebrating, often short time later, there is no reason to celebrate anymore. So they regularly fall into the trap of over self confidence and self advertising from CEO’s and their lies. When the need to tell a story kills any caution. 🤔

@dcm capitalism will as capitalism does.
sebastian büttrich@dcm says a lot about 'businesss' ...
@dcm Ms. Holmes is getting sentenced next week -- she tried everything to get out of doing time, but looks like she will spend at least some time in the slammer. Boo hoo.
@dcm doubt they will nail the cryptocon guy. Doesn't he live in the Bahamas?
Armin Auth@dcm they had also Adam Neumann. Is this a kiss of death?
@authsider oh, thats the chef's kiss of death
Jim@dcm It's a game, and this shows how it works.

This is the same magazine trump lied his way onto several times. We’re surprised now?

Stephen Shankland@dcm I have some sympathy. (I'm a journalist.) It's tough to be 100% correct with predictions and assessments. I've made bad calls myself. Mostly I advise assessing news sites on the overall track records.
@stshank I think more than the predictions, I am really not a fan of such lists - I dont see what it achieves other than a popularity poll. If its People magazine, sure - but that's not what they sell themselves as (as far as I am aware)
Gssy@dcm they say that most investment is driven by the twin motivators of greed and fear
zen@zen absolutely brilliant!
Now at @@dcm On the other hand, they do provide a top-notch service to investors.
If the CEO of a company you've invested in appears on their cover, ring your broker and sell. (Or better yet, short sell.)

@dcm it's people like that (and the tech bro billionaires) who've made me hate the word entrepreneur. Sorry to my social enterprise pals but entrepreneur has come to align so closely with resource and people exploitation rather than innovation or community value
Bill Seitz@dcm 30 under 30-to-life
Cher Tailor@dcm Can someone explain what FTX is again?
Stephen Collins@dcm surely this is confirmation that we should just stop listening to mouthpieces for late capitalism, such as Forbes?
Nate Smith@dcm “I got involved in crypto without any idea what crypto was” didn’t age well
Helchose@dcm how's about we don't lionize CEOs and turn them into celebrities?
Michiel van Leening 
@dcm This is great.
Just like The Times article from the 1920’s which said that Hitler had “learned his lesson”.
How can media be so wrong so many times and for so long 🤣

There's something about our culture looking for heroes: we want the myth of the lone genius, the charismatic leader that saves us all to be true. It gives us hope that we don't need to rely on eachother to succeed.
The communist propaganda was the other side of this. The middle ground seems... Uninteresting? We like polarization and contrasting moral.
