Forbes 30 under 30

A bunch of people just were nominated for Forbes 30 under 30. What’s the deal with 30 under 30? Does it matter? Is it paid? What’s the judgement criteria? Would love some comments

Forbes 30 under 30, is kinda sold out
Has pretty bad track record (at least in USA), of the featured founders to be frauds

Forbes lists now are meaningless. There is no criteria for nomination and someone else or you need to nominate yourself. Then who knows which dumb fuck decides to put you on the list

Anything you bay even becomes slightly paid for - loses value

Damn this was on of ten few things on my bucket list but after reading the comments here I guess there’s no value in Forbes 30 u 30.

Most people in Forbes 30 Under 30 have turned out to be scammers.

It's nothing but a paid list and generally corrupt/scamming people pay for it.

If you're seeing someone on that list, you can safely assume they're a scammer.

This is what a jealous nobody says.

@WoodenPub41 While not all scammers, a lot of the people on the list end up in trouble in some way or another. It’s heavily funded by VCs as a marketing method to sell their founders to push for higher valuations and sell outs. Once you understand the Venture Capital market and that there is a need to build early venture brand equity, I’m sure you’ll see that anyone significantly doubting the list and the merits behind them aren’t too off the mark.

It is basically paid advertising for the scummiest corporate sellouts of the world. If anyone has 30 under 30, make sure you block and report them to your nearest tax evasion authority.
Iss baar to literal nobodies are in that list. Helen Huang, Sharan Hegd and other scamming chamans.

Jealousy is a currency that only unemployed people can afford :)

It sells in boomer circle and lower tier college circle.

Doesn't work in tier 1.

Tier 1 knows it's a paid scam. Can tell you based on my college friend name in the last year list. He said karna padta hai to raise funds 🤣

I believe it’s a mix of both.
It’s for sure paid for the most part, have heard now from too many people across the startup world that they received offers to pay for it and get the title

Also, most of the names now end up being sus anyway

I do feel some must be legit though to balance it out
