Dislike the pop-up
March 16, 2016

They have this pop-up page whenever you go to them from a different resource and you have to wait until reading the article. This is really uncomfotable. I came to read the article, not wait 5 sec until you show an add or whatever

A sad and tragic tale
February 26, 2015

Having spent four highly formative years at Forbes in the early to mid-1980s, I immediately bought this book on my Kindle and then couldn't put it down. I read The Fall of the House of Forbes from start to finish in a single day. Stewart Pinkerton, an insider who lost his job in one of numerous downsizings, does a terrific job bringing to life many of the vivid characters...

I've read reviews sayimg this magazine lacks honesty. My complaint is of a different nature. The article that I take umbrage with was written about the made up "Top Ten Reasons People Use not to Wear a Mask." They were all relatively silly, trying to give the impression that the persons were being friolous. None of this "top ten" included a very valid reason for not waring a mask, wbich is heart or lung disease. It would be nice if the article hadn't been so biased that they couldn't even come up with one reason that is valid. I'm disgusted with this magazine.

For this reason alone, i rate forbes a 1/5, though in reality it doesn't deserve any points as it is essentially a broken website that does not allow me to view it.

I am SO sick of sites that block you out completely with giant pop up that block the entire site unless you turn your adblock off. NO, I will NOT turn my adblock off, I will just go to another site that doesn't block me out completely for using adblock!

I read Forbes more than I would like to because they often cover topics of interest for me, namely regarding the stock market.
But they provide factually false information and as "investing experts" they know that they're providing false information.
For instance, they constatly trash Roth IRAs versus traditional IRAs because "paying taxes beforehand will make you earn less compared to someone whom only pay taxes afterwards whom have a big headstart". It may be counter intuitive but it's entirely false. Let me prove it to you. Let's say taxes are 15%, you invest $1000 and will double your gain over time.
By paying taxes beforehand, you only invest $850 after taxes, which will double, so that's $1700.
If you pay taxes later, you invest $1000 and it doubles afterwards so that's $2000. Now you take off 15% taxes so that's $300 off, leaving you $1700.
As you can see with this example, Forbes tends to push false narratives that can be mathematically proven false. Is there a conflict of interest, is content sponsored to push a narrative, are the journalists letting their own beliefs take over what's actually true? I don't know but don't trust what they say.

$#*! Forbes
June 12, 2018

I get that it can be annoying to see revenue go down thanks to adblockers. I have a site that runs 2-3 ads. Very small, very unintrusive. So when I was promised an "Ad Light" experience, I thought what the hell, why not. And disabled my adblocker. What I was met with was the 7th circle of advertisement hell. I haven't seen this many ads since trying to download cracked minecraft in the 9th grade. What the $#*! forbes. When your advertisements take up more than 80% of the $#*!ing screen, its time to fix that $#*!. I will NEVER use forbes again. In fact I blocked the page in my isp settings. $#*! the clickbait titles. $#*! the advertisements. $#*! Forbes.

Stewart Pinkerton has created a profoundly important book with THE FALL OF THE HOUSE OF FORBES, not only because he has a plethora of inside information about one of the wealthiest families in America and is able to share the secrets of this money mad family with the reader, but also because he demonstrates the skills of a brilliant new writer. He has been the managing editor of Forbes Magazine (the topic of this biopic!) as well as deputy managing editor of the Wall Street Journal. If there is anyone more qualified to write about the ills of capitalism and the foibles of the wealthy, they have not stepped forward to deliver such an engrossing, well written book about he subjects as Pinkerton.
