Jordan Belfort

 Jordan Belfort is the poster child of every cautionary tale of greed that has ever been written. In the 1990s, his firm, Stratton Oakmont, took the market by storm. It was the brokerage house that every young financier wanted to work for and that every major finance firm wanted to work with. Jordan Belfort was a rock superstar broker during his golden age. He drank hard, partied with the rich and famous and printed literally money. It is often true that one's life appears too good to be true when it appears too good to actually be real. The business practices that led to his meteoric rise were eventually revealed and his entire empire plummeted as fast as it climbed. The impact of Jordan's loss was felt throughout the world, and multiple companies and individuals suffered massive financial losses. It would seem that no one can climb up after a fall such as Jordan's. His autobiographical novels that are his top-selling books they have been instrumental in helping Jordan Belfort transform his fame to a full-time star over the years. You may have heard that Jordan Belfort's first book, "The Wolf of Wall Street" was popularized by the Leonardo DiCaprio/Martin Scorsese movie that was based on the same book.
