Market Description:
This market allows participants to bet which former winners of the Forbes 30 Under 30 list will be convicted of a crime before the resolution date. Participants can add their own candidates to the list, provided they have been featured on a Forbes 30 Under 30 list prior to their conviction.
Notable Convicted Candidates:
- Elizabeth Holmes - Year: 2015 
- Category: Healthcare 
- Conviction: Fraud 
 
- Martin Shkreli - Year: 2013 
- Category: Finance 
- Conviction: Securities fraud 
 
- Sam Bankman-Fried - Year: 2021 
- Category: Finance 
- Conviction: Fraud (as of October 2023) 
 
Market Conditions:
- The market will resolve on January 1, 2027. 
- Only convictions occurring before the resolution date will be considered. 
- Participants can add candidates who have appeared on a Forbes 30 Under 30 list. 
- Convictions must be for criminal offenses, excluding civil violations. 
Additional Context:
While most former winners are not involved in criminal activities, notable individuals currently facing legal issues include:
- Charlie Javice (2019, Finance): Awaiting trial for fraud charges. 
- Caroline Ellison (2022, Finance): Pleaded guilty to fraud charges and is awaiting sentencing. 
I have added some top recent ones from Healthcare and Finance categories since those are who have historically been convicted.
People who won together count as a group, and if any of them are convicted, it counts as a Yes for that group. You can not add an option bundling people who did not win together.
