Forbes released two lists highlighting self-made Americans, ranking 250 individuals and 250 historical figures. The rankings are based on a 'Self-Made Score' measuring financial success, obstacles overcome, and long-term impact. Three Boston-area billionaires made the list: Noubar Afeyan, Bill Cummings, and Herb Chambers. Historical figures with Boston ties include Benjamin Franklin and Babe Ruth. The rankings utilized over a century of archives, reporter input, AI tools, and expert judges to determine scores.
