The real Wolf of Wall Street
In the 80's and 90's, the stock market was a place where ambition turned into greed. Here, there was only one rule: make money and spend money.
It was a world dictated by vice: fancy cars, expensive drugs, crazy parties, and lots of sex.
And one name stands out: Jordan Belfort.
We've all seen the movie and heard all the legends. But there's more to the real-life Wolf of Wall Street than a couple of books and a movie. And we'll tell you all about it, in this episode of Company Forensics.

the irony : Wolf of Wall Street movie acquired funding from a controversial malaysian sovereign wealth fund (1MDB). What a real life plot !
An even more interesting fact: when the real Jordan Belfort was invited to a party hosted by the producers of the Wolf of wall st, he saw how much money was being thrown around and wasted by Jho Low (the mastermind behind the 1MDB fraud) and told several people that “no one would do that with money they made legitimately.” This was a year or two before the scandal was revealed to the public, so he guessed quite well!
@@oliver1492 yes i remenber reading about It in the book too, It was like inception
Yeah, another layer and even more Fun!
And if anyone is wondering, the book is called "Billion Dollar Whale" .
@@whodatchink i read It, Very good
I met Jordan in LA at a party a while back. When he walks in to a room, he shines like charismatic diamond. It was something you cannot even explain. Personality and attitude is really important.
Wow, impressive story! Thanks for sharing!
never happened
That’s BS
I mean a lot of people did met him so it’s not impossible
LA’s trash 🗑🚮
Strange how drug use is permissible so long as you're rich.
@Halcon Serrano true. But because hes rich, i guess hookers and blow are expected to be part of the package.
@Halcon Serrano extreme capitalism my freind. Even prisons make profit from locking up poor people.
Here, we now have mobile drug testing for drivers. Cocaine isn’t included in the test.
@@flamesofjihad4069 not because he's rich smartypants, he's free quickly cause the information he has
@Halcon Serrano if you are poor, why should you even waste money on drugs?
for those still asking how jordan served only 22 months is because he cooperated with the feds, which was also shown in the film.
it was 36 months in the film tho
@@rustic_dweller 36 month sentence but only served 22
Yes he served 22 months for good behavior. Which is funny because who wouldn't be good if you know your sentence would be cut to less months?
@@SweetLovesTonyto be fair, he was a rich person with power going to prison. he’s talked ab how easy prison was for him, not being anything like what prison is for most people. i’d say that good behavior is probably a lot harder for people who are in gen pop who don’t have a lot of money, possibly getting mixed up in things daily that you don’t want to. i don’t speak from experience or anything, so i could be wrong.
be honest and you get brownie points, i heard it from the next guy heh be nmegative karen mode, it bites you in the ass. doesn't need to be then, be it now, but for fack's sake, those guys are good
Here’s the thing: Jordan feels bad, but most likely at the same time doesn’t. Why? Because his “story” was put in the spot light. His scams and illegal activity is borderline praised. There was a movie that was extremely successful about him, people now always post clips and put “sigma” stuff all over it. It’s almost like disciplining a child and then afterward saying how cute it was how the child did something bad. Jordan’s apparent lack of repentance is 100% due to the public. People cannot get mad at him for something they encouraged
Perfect.
He still pays his restitution (however sparsely), and hasn't traded on the market since. It's like you expect him to crawl in a hole, and die...? If ethics/morality were still associated with law, we would still see women burned @ the stake for being witches. Jordan has apologized repeadedly for his crimes. Whether we beleive him or not is neither here nor there...
cringe
@@SASBurner 🤓
Jordan was so poor it seems a lot of people are poor like his character in basketball diaries and want to get money
Why do people only hold Jordan accountable. There were numerous other people involved in the scam and knew it was illegal.
Because he was the founder and the one who profited the most
Google, "Whataboutism Fallacy." Next, learn some rigor in thinking.
@@siggi3712 And the one who became the celebrity and got to be in a movie (he has a bit role in Wolf of Wall Street), do speaking engagements, sell a book, etc.
Belfort is one of those guys that blatantly screws you over and says I'm sorry but it wasn't my fault... Lol I hope he's actually reformed.
He isn’t, he sells online courses, the scam of the current year!
Exactly, and the fact he ratted out his co-workers to get off . Disgusting
If you trust him then your stupid enough to buy a stock from him, next trust a wolf 🐺
@@dennisnordlund902 Wrong actually look into it
@@dennisnordlund902 This video is incorrect in quite a few places
Just going to point out, if they had held onto the Steve Madden stock until its peak in 2019 they would have made a 760% profit, average 29% per year since the IPO.
...Really. You don't say. And so what?
@@HegelsOwland so that’s a lot of fucking money
@@HegelsOwlThat is millions of dollars gone back into the "investors" pockets
And the firm shut down like 30 years ago, this information is useless
If you held on to your stocks in 1929 till just before the 2008 crash you would have recovered 75% of thier value.
I feel that this concept is deserving of a Netflix or Amazon series's
Thank you! Maybe someday!
Girl they made a movie about it
@@justangel391 you missed the joke
It is , it’s coming off soon.
Watching (and enjoying) Wolf of Wall Street is a textbook example of what a guilty pleasure is.
This channel is a gold mine
Thanks a lot!
The movie downplayed this man's sociopathy. The movie made his ex wife look like just and opportunistic gold digger but he was emotionally abusive and told his wife the only way she would ever leave him was in a body bag 😱. The abuse was so bad she went to therapy after leaving him. The only way she could leave him and not dying was him going to prison. Anyway, I kinda like some things he says about how to be more charismatic. If there is anyone you can learn to fake it till you make it from, it's a sociopath like him.
he's a sociopath for sure.
I’m not sure if sociopathic is the right word but more narcissistic
There's her side of the story..... there's his side of the story..... Everybody's got their own side to a their story.
@TheoCool802ambition can be a truly evil force
I don't think he's a sociopath by nature but he DEFINITELY let money and drugs get the better of him to the point of psychopathy. It's surprisingly easy to stop feeling empathy for someone when they stand in your way -- that I know first hand. Whether or not he has the self control or awareness to stop himself is something I'm not sure of.
Sorry to all the kids fanboying over Jordan after watching the movie, but he's a selfish schmuck. Scamming elderly people and being a drug addict isn't glamorous.
i live in his area and every time i drive past the country club towards his old house i think about the scene of him driving down the road smashing everything, his actual house is around the corner from the house they used in the movie

carlos rivas Is Jordan Belfort on a payment plan?"
Sociopaths love to reminisce about the days when they outsmarted everyone, because they’re still sociopaths. I felt the movie glorified a conman. A ten minute video seems fitting to me.
@ITSJUSTABASIC you mean stop stating facts? No.
@ITSJUSTABASIC how about this: stop being a criminal and stealing people’s money?
@ITSJUSTABASIC who’s spreading hate? Make as much money as you want but do it honestly. Unless you’re a sociopath, of course ...
@ITSJUSTABASIC You do realise the movie is a cautionary tale right
@R CC yeah. Stop giving them attention; they thrive on it.
This guy is the equivalent of a modern day crypto KZheadr.
Andrew tate
Sbf did a 10 billion scam. So, Belford's 110 million dollars are just a scratch
@@allthe_smokeyNot sure if Andrew Tate has done a pump and dump. Logan Paul has definitely done that though
Logan Pauls...Quite a few ran crap coin scams, but it wasn't/isn't regulated...
I remember his Commercials on TV with the Lion Roaming through an Office
I did work at the house they shot the movie at & it was awesome the housekeeper gave me a tour and showed me pictures from the set when they filmed at the house. The housekeeper said all the actors were really cool and margot robbie is even hotter in person
First time watching, awesome!! Very detailed 🤩🤩
crazy update in background and lighting in the CAYA scene.
And now he’s selling his online “courses” on KZhead scamming more idiots out of their money.
He's not scamming people and he doesn't just provide courses
Lol so he can’t make money? Sounds like someone is hating, btw he provides TONS of free material and teachings online and on his podcast but let’s focus on that one small thing he’s doing which is selling online courses LOL
@@ngythe1king His courses are very good he’s made millions so far from them
If someone is a legitimate businessman, and an entrepreneur, they’re not gonna sell courses on it. They’re gonna be too busy with running their own business and expanding their own wealth. The real millionaires and billionaires aren’t on social media flashing their wealth to the world. They’re too busy for that nonsense. Don’t buy into these fake gurus online who steal each other’s buzzwords to pump you up. The crap they’re selling is basic common sense that everyone knows, they just pitch it enthusiastically so gullible idiots fall for it. They don’t have a real product to sell. Their product is empty motivations and simple tips that everyone in the business world understands. Imagine believing every fake guru that pops up on KZhead ad flashing their fake houses and rented Lamborghinis. Man you two are gullible lmao.
@@leoalphaproductions8642 Buddy, his business is courses and guest speaking, he has made millions upon millions of dollars made off of them and has been recommended by top companies that hired him to speak. I don't think you get that way by being a fake guru. He doesn't flex cars or houses to get people to buy into his program he quite literally only made his Instagram account in 2017 nearly ten years after he started his courses. He also gives so much free advice on his podcast and youtube channel which proves useful. Do some research before you rant on youtube comments, if you want a real fake guru why don't you take a look at Grant Cardone who knows even less than Dan Bilzerian about business.
How can the person who did the most drugs say that Jordan was the one who didn’t remember it even though Jordan didn’t do as many drugs, so wouldn’t Jordan remember more? Idk it just doesn’t make sense.
I love this part of Slidebean.
Sick video idk why it doesnt have more attention
Thank you for details. Helpful to understand.
your'e video editing is on next level.. it show's how much you and your team work hard to make this kind of videos.. thankyou so much for your effort !! and i hope more content like this in the future..
The script writer should have gotten an Academy Award.
fun fact : - there are more ears in the world than people.
And more teeth than ears
@@jadestorm5550 So true
Thats not true since some animals have ears too
There's more cells than teeth
@@THEASSOFJBM he said people not living things
Thanks for a well-organized analysis of an interesting villain and an excellent movie. The narrator is very professional.
CRAZY! HE ONLY GOT 22 MONTHS??
coz he cooperated with the authorities
If you're rich your sentence will be lighter
@@kamenneikoo7854 I know and that's unfortunate
@@kamenneikoo7854 its not that he was rich you should know the story. he was co-operating with the police and it took alot of time off his sentence at first he would've gotten way more.
@@aleksandrathefuni3077 well he was also put in a country club prison because he was rich, I mean tommy Chong was his cell mate
It’s something like being a hacker nowadays. You can work with good companies and people, that will surely pay you well, but if you know that there are other methods of making much more money “that you can’t even spend” that are not quite legitimate, you would probably consider which route you are going. It’s all about how greedy you become and how good you are at controlling it. Sadly it’s in our nature to want more so if we initially make the better decision I suppose we should be in a better position…legally wise.
I love how the thumbnail is so introspective, Leonardo DiCaprio isn’t Jordan belfort?
I love everything about this channel. Great presentation.
Great videos keep going
Awesome Job!!!!! Cover of this situation!!!! 😃😃😃😃❤️👍✨😃🙏💯
FYI: Stratton Oakmont was the business name (not Oakmond)
Stratton oakmont was a pre existing business? Damn, I enjoyed thinking Jordan invented the name just cuz it sounded rich strong fancy😅
Okay ,lets go and rewatch the movie😂😂👌
I read somewhere that Dicaprio has more money than Bedford at that time.
That’s coz Bedford is in England 🏴
Excellent comparison!
Jordan Belforts book: a very rare case of the movie being WAAAAY better than the book.
is it just me or is the reporters head big asf
So is this the new Company Forensics set, or is it just for some videos?
This guy is an opportunist through and through (morality doesn't enter the question) and all is forgotten because secretly a lot of us question whether it is better to live an honest poor life in a rigged system or to do what he did (with barely any consequences) and a celebrity status he still profits from
I don't know how often you view comments on your older videos, but the sources page in the description just leads to a removed page. Hopefully you can fix that :)
So he is an addict, violent, abusive, dishonest, ex-con and driven to the point of no morals. Sounds like a quality person. Regardless of any persuasion skills he has no one should trust him and anyone who does, deserves what they get.
You've just described a lot of rock stars we all listen to not to mention some leaders.. so what is what
Did Daniel do prision time?Anyone know what happened to Daniel except him saying he was not like the book or film?
I don’t get why he didn’t spend his money smarter and basically do a Tony Montana and buy pretty much everything he could from salons to nightclubs, seems like a good way to spend money to have a reliable income, especially in the 80s
Leo should of won the Oscar for this film period. X
This video doesn't quite warrant the company forensics title in my humble opinion. Its definitely entertaining and to some degree informative, but maybe it could fit in a new category.
The previous title has more tendency to be clicked.
Richard got bullied so much that he went and built pied piper.
You should hop on the wolf podcast LOL
Interesting....TY...Enjoyed the movie...Currently reading his book Way Of The Wolf Straight Line Selling.
If you trust Jordan them you are the people that would buy stocks from him.
lmao I didn`t know the ice cream guy motivator I wqtched year ago was the mc in that movie lol
Amazing
Legend says that fish is still alive
This new format with black shady background doesn't look good that much as compared to the earlier one with colourful animations. Although the content is top-notch. Kudos to the team.
I’m pretty sure I’ve heard Jordan say that he never abused his wife Nadine.
Stay away from drugs, kids...
Am just surprised no one in the entire world cornered him and beat the sh$t out of him . 😒
No reason for either party to publicise if it happened. Might also be to high profile to get away with it at this point. Also the victims of his crimes may have been to old or incapable by the time he was released. Jordan is a lot younger than his victims, so it is also possible they could have died before he was released.
@@gm2407 yeah.
I am still waiting for my share.
"learn from mistake". He make sure that he wont be trapped in same mistake again, if it is illegal business
So... you just to,d me what I saw in the movie.
Everybody knows what his story but you failed to explain how he pumped up the stocks which is the main topic that interests the audience
Wolfie... Wolfie... Wolfie.....
I don’t think that anyone of us is in a position to judge JB because I doubt any one of us have even come halfway to experiencing what this guy has gone through. All I will say, is this: Jordan Belfort is one of the world’s best salesman and he knows how to teach sales. Regardless of whether you judge him or not, if you are a business owner then you would be blind not to learn from a guy who has taken 8 companies public before he was even 34 years old.
Thank you for your insights!
O.o are you listening to yourself? Should we learn how to lie and scam our way to the top? That's exactly why MLMs use this story and movie to vet their new members.
@@leonardorodriguez9121 Leonardo, while I would love to disagree with you on why you post this reply, I can completely understand why you would think that based on what you know so far on Jordan Belfort. I would encourage you to visit this video, make your own conclusions after watching it in its entirety, and come back here to post your thoughts: kzhead.info/sun/jbiHkt6CkJdujGg/bejne.html Also, anybody else who is reading this can do the same. Once you do, I will gladly engage with you in a friendly debate regarding Jordan Belfort. In the meantime, I am a business owner and I have other things that require my attention. Peace out!
If one desires to be as successful; In a word: Yes. Hint: Elon Musk didn't get to be who he is today by being ethical. He just did it without breaking any laws...
Disagree 100%> This is how we went from crooked leaders to blatant evil con men, with 0 conscience. He should be in prison. Unless he pays back 100% of the money. He's a slime ball.
Belfort? he's a crook...no doubt about it. The movie was so fun because great actors showed us how ridiculously sloppy anyone can be by getting too obsessed with personal ambitions. The only thing that did surprise though, is how Belfort survived, seemingly without any health issues, his unparalleled drug abuse.✌
Legends are fuel for the fire. Regardless of what really happened. It is a fun and interesting ride through the rise and fall of one of the most corrupt brokers in history.
Everyone around him @ the time claimed it was a pretty accurate representation (however toned down), of how it actually was back then...As long as the traders were meeting their trade goals, it was a non stop party...
You are wrong on one thing. Jordan Belfort on his podcast admitted that there was so much sex that there in fact was, and had to be sex free zones dedicated.
Lacoste is always here 😎
You look like a very young Morpheus😎
My thoughts about the movie (no spoilers): 1. You grow to dislike all the characters: Belfort, his associates, even the FBI agents trying to catch him. There's no one to root for or feel sympathy towards. 2. Every line of dialogue has excessive swearing. After 15 minutes, it grows tiring and has no more meaning. I really like the topic matter, Scorsese, and DiCaprio though. And everyone did a fine job acting their roles. But in the end, I didn't really care either way if the FBI caught him or not.
No everyone did an amazing truly almost out of this world acting job. Jonah Hill and Leo had 10/10 performances some of the best in their careers. They perfected the drugs high perfectly and displayed their emotions on point.
I think he’s no different than any single politician
Jordan Belfort started trading at age 21, not 25....
Harshad Mehta - India?
Yeah kind of
I remember feeling dirty just watching this movie in the theater.....
Not sure if its the camera angle but ur head looks extreamly big.
The US Justice system is a joke...22 months in prison!?!? Where's the frikkin' justice!?
Rehabilitation works punishment doesn't
He ratted out a lot of people to the sec and fbi to get to that reduced sentence.
Hey Buddy it's Stratton Oakmont***
Fucking great job from text to editing!
When even this video is inncorrect...Belfortwas required to pay %50 UNTIL 2009 (Which he did; And, yes. The courts affirmed it.) There was no stipulations placed on income generated after 2009, but, he has paued roughly %25 per year (due to child support arrearages, and other legal obligations)
pump and dump is legal . he did something completely diffrent
I am trusting everything you say
3:00 boiler room con men
He seems like a total creep.
It would be nice if the closed capturing spelled people's names correctly and not several different ways in this story.
Did anybody else notice Belfort used practically every recreational drug under the sky BUT tobacco? At least in the movie Wolf of Wall Street. Donnie smokes in a few scenes, but not Belfort; much unlike the protagonists of Scorcese's previous crime biopics, Good Fellas and Casino, who smoked compulsively. I don't know if real Jordan Belfort was a smoker, but maybe this detail was a subtle hint by Martim Scorcese about the difference between a typical gangster and a white-collar gangster: not much.
Probably the coke had him buzzing enough already.. there was no sense in going outside. Having a smoke. Wasting 5 minutes when he could blast a snort or whatever its called and be loaded in seconds.. for him it was just about effective time management..which makes it borderline impressive In fact for some reason seeing someone outside a building smoking screams loser to me.. i dunno about you.. its just so dirty and lonely.. better seeing a person chatting at a restaurant loudly with a drink
22 months was quite less imo
TOP G
OG TOP G... Old OG Or OOG Like the post malone lyric DOUBLE O G
I have not seen the movie and I don’t really ever care to... but the story is fascinating.
It's a really good movie! Watch it and let us know if it was worth recommending!
He even has a KZhead channel
Honestly, I don’t mind living this life
Jordan said in an interview people want the good side of it not the bad side he said he could have gotten everything without the illegal side but he didn't because you don't wanna hurt people you want money and drugs rhats what he said on Logans podcast well an abridged version
I just watched indian webseries called "scam 1992: the harshad mehta story". And I think it's story much more interesting that wolf of wall street(even the real). First time indians have done something better than hollywood.
The real story and real scam is more complicated than wolf but in terms of film .... wolf of the wall street is better And .. are u indian ?? Lol
Mercedes !!?????????????
Jordan wasnt a bad man he stole from the 1% and gave to himself and I cant blame him they do the same thing to us everyday we are just to dumb to realise
walf? Stairaform?
Why is this a grown man's head on a 9 year old's body?
SHOCKER‼ Jordan Belfort was a liar‼ He never made up or coined the name for himself Wolf of Wall Street‼ Are you ready❓ It was Thurston Howell the third, From the show Gilligan's island. That show was from the mid-sixties to late 60s. He called himself the Wolf of Wall Street.
This guys head us bigger than his body. Lol
