    Forbes is just a blogging platform where “contributors” can post their clickbait. Forbes adds their reputation and the ads and then splits the profit with the “contributor”…

        I once had a college professor tell me forbes was ‘absolutely reliable.’

        That was a decade years ago, but still.

          Forbes used to be credible. Like so many, they gave up on making good content, because, it costs money to do so.

            It not just cost money. It’s easier to generate outrage and “interesting” articles when you can just make shit up (or at least distort facts), so bullshit gets more clicks and thus is more profitable!

      In this case you are wrong. This article is by Forbes Staff, not a contributor.

      Forbes uses one name to deliver two different products, one of which is an in house magazine.
