    Joe no well he started his company in 1990 and was sentenced in 2003 but I’d still say that’s worth it because over half of America is in debt and never got to experience the life he did even for a short while. The thing is he shouldn’t even have been as soon as he was and he probably still lives more lavishly than 98% of the population.

    It’s insane that Jordan Belford got away with about 2 years after basically robbing people of billions of dollars, yet if someone were to rob a gas station or something like that they would most definitely get at least 10 years give or take depending on what state your in. I think the justice system needs to revaluate it’s crime system and serve harsher criminal sentences accordingly. (Edit man this has a lot of likes and comments lol, looking back on this I was definitely wrong on the comment, but I do still think it’s crazy)

    Thank you! A few interesting things you left out, Matthew McConaughey's character in real life was a part owner of Startton Oakmont. Steve Madden went to prison too for this crime and is forbidden from running his own company ever again. The FBI agent ended up becoming friends with Jordan in real life.

    They're nothing alike, they're just both rich lol. Gatsby was a classy, polite man that did not even partake in the drugs and activities of his own parties, and tries his best to rid himself of his "new money" reputation. Belfort is a blunt, erratic drug-abuser who takes pride in his new money status and activities.

    The similarity is only superficial. Belfort was incredible greedy and hedonistic and got rich for only those reasons. Gatsby was succesful and threw his parties to attract Daisy Buchanan, the woman he loved. If you actually had read the book, you'd also know that Gatsby himself is being portrait as shy and certainly not at the forefront of the debauchery like Belfort is in Wolf.

    Technically, he didn't embezzle everything. What he did was a form of fraud. Let me break it down. Its called a Pump and Dump. Belfort would tell his friends to buy into a penny stock while it was dirt cheap. Then, his staff would cold call Average Joes and convince them to buy hundreds, thousands in that stock. By doing this, he could artificially raise the price on the stock. Then, his buddies would sell high and Belfort would get 50% commission on all those trades, screwing over the Joes

    ​@@abdullahimran4624 Yes it's basic supply and demand. Let me explain it using a more achievable example. Lets talk about video games. Say were are in the past and Final Fantasy VII just came out and you know that game is going to be amazing and worth more in the future. So you buy multiple brand new copies of the limited edition version and leave them unopened. They were worth $60 each copy brand new. Fast forward to now and those limited edition copies are now worth $1,000 because they are rare and many people want them. You put them all up on eBay but turns out you weren't the only one. There is a guy who put up a few copies for $900 and people aren't buying the $1,000 ones. You see this and put it up for $800 and people buy some of your copies but then someone else puts it for $700 and so on so forth until eventually it's not as special anymore. You want to try it with another game, lets say "ET The Game" but nobody cares about it and it's only worth like $1 per copy. You manipulate people into believing that the game is worth buying and people start buying a lot of copies(demand goes up), so the price starts going up and now every copy is worth $1,000. You know that people are going to start selling and lowering the value so you make sure to put up all copies on eBay before anyone else so you can maximize your profit. This is basically what they were doing.

    Here’s some irony for you guys: The financing for The Wolf Of Wall Street was done by the stepson of the Malaysian prime minister who embezzled hundreds of millions from their country (before fleeing with their millions to somewhere.) The film about fraud was paid for with more fraud. 😂 From CNBC:The company behind the 2013 film, "The Wolf of Wall Street", agreed to pay the United States government $60 million to settle a civil lawsuit that sought to seize assets allegedly bought with money stolen from a Malaysian state fund. The film's producer, Red Granite Pictures, co-founded by the Malaysian prime minister's stepson, announced last September that it had "reached a settlement in principle" with the U.S. government, but did not reveal any sum at the time. According to a filing in a California court on Wednesday, the company also settled claims against its rights and interests in two other films, "Daddy's Home" and "Dumb and Dumber To". "We are glad to finally put this matter behind us and look forward to refocusing all of our attention back on our film business," Red Granite said in a statement on the filing. U.S prosecutors, pursuing their biggest kleptocracy asset recovery initiative, had claimed the three films were financed by Red Granite using money misappropriated from 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB), a state fund founded in 2009 by Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak.

    My dad has worked in finance for a good 35 years, and is the same age as Jordan Belfort. He says that he met him a couple times, and Stratton Oakmont was famous (or rather, infamous) among his colleagues. He offered some interesting insights. Apparently the part of the movie with the dialogue scripts that Jordan Belfort gives out is 100% accurate; he believed his process was so perfect, that all he had to do was put the words into his employees' mouths, and they could sell. While I do not work in finance (although I did have some internships in college), I've lived around that world my entire life; many of the kids I knew growing up also had parents that worked in finance. And many of those same kids are currently working in finance now. Considering the people I grew up around, here's what I can say: I loved this movie. Wolf of Wall Street is a fascinating and extremely accurate look at the MINDSET of finance people, how they view themselves, how they talk, and how they think. Many of them, particularly the younger ones that are closer to my age, love this movie and approach it the same way I would imagine gangsters do "The Godfather". Although, while finance people do love to party, spend tons of money, and avoid sobriety wherever possible, I think a lot of that was exaggerated in the film. For instance, finance people love their drugs and alcohol, but apart from the occasional beer on a Friday afternoon, doing either of those while you're actually in the office is highly frowned upon. If you want an accurate picture of what the finance world is actually like, as opposed to the mindset of the people in it, "The Big Short" is 100%.

    The Big Short was really entertaining and actually explained all the concepts of the financial world in an ELI5 way that was fun and also helped us understand how banks and regulators screwed up in 2007-08 and the decades leading up to it.
