Ventures After Prison

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. Jordan wrote two books, The Wolf of Wall Street and Catching the Wolf of Wall Street, which have earned him millions of dollars. 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.

Business motivational talks

Suffice to say, Jordan Belfort possessed the drive, will power and intelligence to earn profits and spend it in the manner he chose. While, his tactics landed him in jail, he, now a self-proclaimed businessman, says he learnt from his mistakes and has reformed. He travels around the world offering business motivational talks to young business people as well as gurus in the industry. He earns around $30,000 from each speech, a small sum in comparison with his earnings from Stratton Oakmont, but he has successfully inspired many business-oriented people on good, ethical ways of making large sums of money.  In the modern world, the emphasis is on becoming wealthy, regardless of the methods, thus Jordan Belfort feels obligated to educate corporations and individuals about ethical business methods, so that the profits and/or profit methods do not get other people in trouble with the law, like they did with him.
