'Survivor 30' Cast: Which Tribe Will Thrive Best In 'Worlds Apart,' White, Blue Or No Collar? [VIDEO]
With Survivor: Worlds Apart a little over a month away, some fans are wondering which tribe will emerge victorious, the white collars, the blue collars or the "no collars."
Survivor: Worlds Apart will have three tribes of six, divided by socioeconomic status. The white collar tribe comprises of men and women who have excelled in higher paying jobs, such as executives and business professionals. The blue collar tribe features those in the middle class who are working from paycheck to paycheck. And the no collar tribe includes people who have paved their own way for success, artist-types who don't necessarily play by the rules.
All manner of people have won the game of Survivor over its first 29 seasons, so any member of these three tribes could potentially win. As far as working as a tribe, however, that may be a different story.

Conceptually, the white collar tribe will likely be full of leaders who are not necessarily used to doing dirty work, so some may struggle with the survival elements. However, if they have that work ethic and a competitive edge, it could put them over the top.
Meanwhile, the no collar tribe will probably feature many players who don't work well with structure, so they may find it difficult to follow any one leader. Plus, with so many different perspectives, they may not be an entirely cohesive tribe. It's also possible that they could all find some similarity in each other, which can only help with team morale.
Out of the gate, it would seem as though the blue collar tribe would have what it takes to succeed the best. As they are presumably used to having a good work ethic, they would probably do well in challenges and thrive best in a survival environment. But since blue collar workers tend to "follow the rules" more than "make the rules," there may be a lack of leadership.
One of the best parts about Survivor is that anyone could win with the right combination of elements. From Richard Hatch to Natalie Anderson, the show has come up with such a wide variety of winners that season 30's winner could come from any one of white collar, blue collar or no collar backgrounds.
Survivor: Worlds Apart premieres Wednesday, Feb. 25 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on CBS.
