Introduction
Jordan Belfort, frequently called the Wolf of Wall Street, from his previous books, life-style, business and now movie, was born to accountant parents Max and Lear Belfort in 1962. Jordan is famous for founding a stock broking firm on Wall Street during the 1990s, Stratton Oakmont, nevertheless, Jordan's corporation was based on Long Island not Wall Street. His sales methods, and his passion to become famous and rich, led him to create Stratton Oakmont; which was a firm that sold untrained investors valueless stocks, and deserted them once the stocks plummeted. This affair made him serve a 22-month jail term and indemnification payments to the people he defrauded. When running Stratton Oakmont, Jordan made in excess of $1 billion dollars via a number of loyal workers he had hired to carry out penny stock sales to prospective investors. Both he and his staff became wealthy quickly, and enjoyed the trappings of their success; taking drugs and partying non stop.
Activity after Jail
Books
While serving his purportedly 4 years jail term, which became only 22 months after collaborating with the authorities on his case, Jordan was lucky, or otherwise, to share a jail room with Tommy Chong, serving his 9 months time after a sentence of selling drug paraphernalia online. Tommy inspired Jordan to make his life's story a book, after listening much of what went down in Jordan's life. Belfort's two publications; The Wolf of Wall Street and Catching the Wolf of Wall Street, made him a mulit millionaire. One of the books has now been turned into a movie picture that has been given the same title. The movie is called The Wolf of Wall Street; it stars Matthew McConaughey and Leonardo DiCaprio.
