every time I look at this list, I feel depressed. I am almost 30 and feel like I haven't done much with my life, doing a job that is not very fulfilling, like I have wasted my youth... on a side note, I wonder how successful do 30under30 people become after 30, like what % TC: 300
Target 40 under 40. More time less compitition. All the best
The biggest douche in my entire high school was on there.
Another way of saying "30 under 30" is "peaked too early". Perspective.
This. I have seen people get cocky in their 20s to then have a slow decline in their 30s. That’s cause no one wants to work with them and the non cocky people kept humbled and gained more skills.
Is this a troll post? Please tell me this is a troll post .
no, why?!?
because everyone on forbes 30 under 30 paid to be there. they are all rich morons who are worthless and the only reason why they are rich is because they were given opportunities that other people didn't have.
There are 1600+ 30 under 30 per year. That’s how many categories they have. It’s a scam

And there’s regional ones too. Essentially it’s a sponsorship - Forbes gets money, people gets short-lived fame.
Start up and you’ll get featured. The investors typically push for their PortCo founders. Friendly advice: Chase TC or simply do what you like. Go for these lists only if you want to chase fame for yourself. Then it makes complete sense. Even from a PR standpoint for your startup, it makes sense only if your product is niche (that is, catering to people who actually care about wtf is F30U30). Future investors won’t care so much because they know how the nominations work anyway.
All this is just chu***tiyaap, I always focus on finding happiness. I gets happy with very little achievement. Keep working hard, keep having fun. Stop giving damn to these stupid lists. If we compare with others or look at successful people, we probably can never be happy.
Thinking of these lists and comparing with others is a waste of energy. Focus on yourself, what do you want? If unsatistifed then stop whining and make changes, but for no other reason than yourself.
this!
