Forbes Consults Astrologer For Apple CEO Steve Jobs' Future: Look For "Breakthrough News"

Forbes Consults Astrologer For Apple CEO Steve Jobs' Future: Look For "Breakthrough News" In August 2003

by , 8:00 AM EST, December 30th, 2002

Forbes Magazine has consulted an astrologer to get the scoop on what's going to be happening during 2003. Seriously. The mainstream financial magazine asked astrologer Susan Miller from AstrologyZone.com what was "in the heavens" for the CEOs of several major corporations, including Apple, and we aren't making this up. According to Ms. Miller, August of 2003 will be the time when the stars line up for Apple CEO Steve Jobs to announce some "breakthrough news." From Forbes:

Wall Street brokerages are bending over backwards to convince consumers--and regulators--that their investment advice isn't tainted with conflicts of interest. But to get truly independent analysis, why not look to the heavens?

Forbes asked astrologist Susan Miller to tell us what the stars hold for some top bosses. In the spirit of full disclosure, she cautions that her predictions aren't as accurate as they might be since she didn't have access to each exec's specific time of birth. Don't say we didn't warn you.

Other CEOs who received horoscopes include Rupert Murdock of NewsCorp, Presidential pal and US energy policy advisor Kenneth Lay of Enron, and even Martha Stewart. Check out the full article at Forbes.com for more.

The Mac Observer Spin:

We salute Forbes for offering an entertaining bit of content in the absence of major news during the holidays, especially content as whimsical as this. The disembodied hands over the crystal ball in the image above was a particularly nice touch. We will do our best to remember to revisit this come August in order to see if Ms. Miller was right.
