Author And Inspirational Speaker - Jordan Belfort

By Peter Jenkins


From a showy way of life in the 1990s to a crime conviction as the decade drew to a close and a new life as a uplifing speaker, the tale of Jordan Belfort is probably one of the most studied stories of Wall Street gone wrongâ€"-and ways to make it right.

Born in July, 1962, Jordan Belfort was the child of Max and Leah Belfortâ€"-Jewish accountants living in the Bronx and later Manhattan. Max Belfort was a significant influence in Jordan's life, even going on to become the Chief of one of the most successful, opulent and finally fake Wall St agents, Stratton Oakmont.

Jordan Belfort studied to be a dentist, but dropped out of college to make his fortune. After several years of working small sales jobs, he made a fast, lucrative and doubtless illegal practice of brokering in low priced shares. As his operation expanded, he speedily scaled up his operation to make Stratton Oakmont, a scandalous boiler room company that is claimed to have deceived investors of over $200 million. Belfort's company finalised the plan of selling big quantities of penny stocks and shares to unsuspecting bankers, artificially skyrocketing their price and then selling them for a profitâ€"-often named as a 'pump and dump' schemeâ€"-earning him over $50 million a year. Belfort is thought of as the inventor of this suggestion that's considered by analysts and finance corporate executives to be the predecessor to the modern Ponzi scheme. At the pinnacle Stratton Oakmont employed over 1,000 brokers dealing in stock worth over one bln bucks.

Belfort's illegal empire directly came under the scanner of the Monetary Crimes Unit of the Fed Bureau of Inquiry and the office of the Alabama Stocks Commissioner. He was convicted of the white-collar crime and served just about 2 years in Fed prison for money laundering and stocks crime. In jail, he wrote the manuscript of what would be his hottest 2008 book, 'The Wolf of Wall Street' and in 2009 wrote a follow up titled 'Catching the Wolf of Wall Street'. As 1 piece of his sentence, he was ordered to pay over $110 million of the cash he had gained in fake trading. In 2013, he was charged with being tardy in meeting his atonement commitments and is claimed to be looking for relief from the adjudication that ordered him to settle 50% of the money he took from investors.

Today, Jordan Belfort is an author, consultant and inspiring speaker who has written about the significancy of corporate ethics in one or two American and global papers and magazines. Through his firm Straight Line, Belfort trains and educates corporate executives about the best way to use high-return sales systems to generate wealth in a moral manner. He also speaks at some of the most prestigious CXO-level meetings and conventions around the world. His life has been portrayed by Leonardo DiCaprio in the 2013 film 'The Wolf of Wall Street'.

  1. We’re bombarded by people and things, wanting our time and money, so naturally we’ve evolved a filter that’s highly attuned to the first few seconds of any interaction. And if you happen to be selling something, you almost get less than an instant. You have to establish that you’re a person worth listening to straight away. How long did Jordan Belfort’s Stockbrokers in Stratton Oakmont, have to make an impression on the phone?Just seconds, in a tough cold calling environment where they were looking to secure significant investments.
