Plenty of people on the Forbes 30 Under 30 lists have turned out to be not quite so shiny. AdvertisementThe Forbes "30 Under 30" lists celebrate the achievements of young people making a mark in a range of sectors. Its "hall of shame" starts – appropriately enough – with Sam Bankman-Fried, the FTX cofounder who was on the 30 Under 30 finance list in 2021. Caroline Ellison was on the Forbes 30 under 30 list last year. Outside the 30 Under 30 finance class, the gun rights activist Cody Wilson also makes the hall of shame.

Owning Gucci loafers "wouldn't make me any less capable of leading my team," Téllez rightfully pointed out. Most startups attract people who know this and are excited by it, and Parade employees were no different. "Like any for-profit company, Parade sought to make money and deliver value for shareholders," she told Business Insider. Téllez told staffers DeFuria was sick, and some were worried enough to send flowers to his home. Téllez told employees that they should be receiving offers for positions at AAI "within the next 72 hours at the latest."
