Malcolm Stevenson Forbes is popular for two things. First and foremost he is known as the founder of the successful Forbes magazine. Second, and perhaps he is more famous for this, as a loyal rider and collector of the Harley Davidson motorcycles.
Forbes tried to dabble in politics for a while between 1951 and 1957 but he settled to managing Forbes magazine in 1957. The success of the magazine today is evident of the hard work invested by Forbes in his business. But all work and no play can make jack, in this case Malcolm, a dull boy so he compensated hard work with a very lavish lifestyle which included his priceless art collection, a B727 trijet named Capitalist Tool, yachts and of course, his collection of Harley motorcycles.
