Fame, Fortune, Power and Disgrace

Date of Review:  Dec 5, 2002
The Bottom Line: Fortune magazine centers on powerful CEOs that head America's largest companies. It keeps on top of what's happening in the business world, the financial market and advances in technology.
Review: With the nation reeling from the wave of corporate fraud and unscrupulous auditors and analysts, investors have become angry, distrustful and cynical. Casual readers are turning away from newsstand copies of business magazine. Although a good...

Fortune: The Bible for CEO's

Date of Review:  Nov 24, 2004
The Bottom Line: Fortune magazine is ok, but much of what you read about deals with corporate CEO success and is unrealistic for the average person.
Review: Financial magazines are among my favorite types of periodicals. Given free and open choice among many types of magazines, the financial publications are the ones I reach for more than any other, a consequence of my field of expertise.

Making A List Doesn't Allow Fortune Magazine To Make My List

Date of Review:  Nov 3, 2002
The Bottom Line: Plenty of news sources do news better. Plenty of magazines do analysis better. Skip this one.
Review: Poor Fortune. Other magazines (Business Week and The Economist) provide better analysis. Still others (Red Herring and Fast Company) do a better job on new economy issues. Even coverage for the glib investor is better addressed by Forbes and Smart...

How can I make a fortune?

Date of Review:  Jun 20, 2001
The Bottom Line: If you like reading about wealthy successful people than Fortune is for you.
Review: I have purchased Fortune on and off over the last few years. It does have some useful information but largely most of what I see in it highlights those who have already made their fortune. It really doesn't say enough about how they got there.

And just how much of a FORTUNE do you need?

Date of Review:  Oct 12, 2002
The Bottom Line: Some good business articles, some very bad math, and lots and lots of advertisements.
Review: I am not a business man, nor do I play one on TV. How I came to get Fortune magazine is a bit of a twisted path leading through two other magazines which have since passed on. The first was PC Computing, which was a fine though not stellar...

How Would You Like To Increase Your Fortune?

Date of Review:  Oct 27, 2000

Do What They Do, Get What They Got!

Date of Review:  Sep 4, 2002
The Bottom Line: One of the things you'll learn by reading the stories of successful people in Fortune Magazine is that, they never gave up.
Review: There was an Old saying, that I didn't hear till I was about 21.... It goes.. "Keep doing what you've always done, and you'll keep getting what you always Get" .... pretty simple and yet, oh, so profound. Here's another one ... "Insanity is doing...

Start your Fortune with Fortune

Date of Review:  Jul 16, 2002
The Bottom Line: Fortune is the best unbiased business magazine with a slight twist of humor.
Review: Fortune is by far my favorite magazine. I know that reading it will not make me a fortune, and that really isn't the point. I read Fortune because I like to know what's going on in the business world. We all interact with business everyday. The...

Fortune Magazine; An Excellent Bargain

Date of Review:  Jan 27, 2001
The Bottom Line: Overall Fortune is packed with interesting, colorful, and educational articles related to the business world.
Review: Fortune magazine contains a lot of reading material, especially considering the cost. For this fact alone I consider Fortune to be an excellent bargain.


I am not an all-powerful CEO or even a college business major. I do however...
