Meet the "Wolf of Wall Street"

[trendie]

Jordan Belfort, is coming to the UK.

He seems to have numerous "gigs", one in Birmingham, of all places, later this month.

This offer seems to be associated ("presented by") by Knowledge to Action

If you make the effort the tune out the ads, it might be worth going to see what this guy has to say. He seems to be famous, for the right reasons.

the seminar is advertised as free.

lol if he's sunk to this level pretty obvious how useful his knowledge is...

his life is being made into a film, directed by martin scorcese...but his talk seems to be about business and ethics and he was indicted and imprisoned for two years in the 90s for running one of the biggest boiler rooms ever i believe...so theres probablly a scam in there somewhere

Its already been done as I believe boiler room was based around him and heard he had some input on the film
when it was made. The act as if your the biggest swinging d1ck line is in his book.

apologies for starting this thread.

I thought it was legit because he had written a reasonable book, and the blurb seemed enticing. didnt realise he was involved in boiler-rooms.

wish I hadnt bothered.

Yes, how dare you link to such tosh!

Just kidding, you were only trying to help anyway... you could ask a mod to delete your thread if you're that bothered?

To be honest guys im just reading the book lay on a beach in Penang and
its a seriously good read exposing stuff such as how much a bunch of idiots
the SEC are. If you wanna know all about boiler rooms and how they function
with the actively traded stocks in the US and how rich Americans get screwed
then its a good read. Only half way through though yet. :-0

I've read one of his books (from the library...I didn't see any reason to enrich him), and it's not a bad read. I imagine the others are much the same.

If it was near me, I'd go to see him, just out of curiousity.
