Forbes Magazine

Pros: Good articles on topics that don't provide advice on picking stocks or general economy

Cons: Repeated horrible "advice" from "experts" that don't understand basic math, agenda-driven content

The Bottom Line: Forbes magazine is a good source of information on a few topics. Some articles provide a balanced point of view. But the "advice" that "experts" provide...

Review: I normally don't write magazine reviews, but I cannot remain a bystander. I have subscribed to the Forbes for a year and did not renew my subscription. There is a reason for this.

About the Magazine

Forbes magazine is a...

Pros: Insightful business reading written by top-notch journalists

Cons: Frequently out of stock in first class cabins world-wide

Review: Okay...I admit it. I fly in first class...a lot. Why? Because my profession requires me to practically live in the air and the airlines pamper their most frequent flyers. What does this have to do with Forbes magazine? Well....guess what's the first...

Pros: articles

Cons: none

Review: The magazine I am reviewing today is called ?Forbes.? This is a very well written magazine. I say this because the articles in it always stimulate me to buy another one. This magazine is so great that I often find myself literally waiting for the...

Pros: Great insight into business trends

Cons: Subscribers are the last ones to hear about it.

The Bottom Line: Provides excellent source on trends on business.

Review: I've been a subscriber to Forbes magazine for over a year now and I can honestly say it's worth the investment. Even with its quality content, it is lacking in a couple of areas.

Great Business Content
If you have any interest...

Pros: Not particularly left or right (within a capitalist business outlook).

Cons: Lack of research. Sensationalism.

Review: I got a free subscription to this magazine using frequent flyer miles, and I do not intend to renew. While the story topics are good, the writing is very poor. Overstatement and under-researched articles predominate.

Pros: Just about everything you wanted to know about the business world

Cons: Too much advertisement

The Bottom Line: Ever wondered who is the world's wealthiest person? Find it in Forbes!

Review: Every time I get my issue of Forbes Magazine I skip most of the articles and go straight to the lists or rankings. America's Top 500 Companies, America's Wealthiest Entertainers, The World's Wealthiest People, The International 500, etc. Hey call me...

Pros: Good general business magazine, lots of informative articles

Cons: Articles can get a bit dry, focuses too much on global business economics

Review: Forbes magazine has always been a top contender in the business class world. It's one of those magazines that cover a vast quantity of information packed between it's pages. Although it's not for everybody -- or every business reader.

Pros: Great writing, very insightful

Cons: Conservative

Review: The impression I had of Forbes for many years is of a stuffy, conservative magazine for old money types. But over the years (reading the magazine on long airline trips) I was again and again impressed by how such short articles (most of the...

Pros: Top notch, Internet, new economy, great writers

Cons: Who can say anything against the best you can get here?

Review: Forbes magazine is in its own league. It has something to offer to everybody: the serious business men, the new startup entrepreneurs, the kids with the hit idea waiting to conquer the hill, the Silicon Valley or Silicon Alley.

What is...

Pros: Provides an insight into the sick, twisted faith of Evangelical Republicans.

Cons: News articles that prove false *disappear*.

The Bottom Line: I recommend this magazine to GOPers who need excuses to continue their irrational support of the Republican party.

Review: After many years of seeing conservatives read this magazine, I decided to give it a serious shot. I've flipped through it before, but never really gave it a good going-over.

Even Subscribers Don't Read It
