Jordan Belfort books in order

Jordan Ross Belfort, simply known as Jordan Belfort, is an American entrepreneur, motivational speaker, former stockbroker and New York Times bestselling author.

He is best known for writing the bestselling The Wolf of Wall Street (2007), which was adapted into a major motion picture starring Leonardo DiCaprio.

Born in the Bronx, New York City, he attended American University where he graduated with a degree in biology.

A shrewd business mind from a very young age, Belfort and a childhood friend notably earned $20,000 from selling Italian ice to people at a local beach during the period between completing high school and starting college.

However, his most infamous of jobs was as a stockbroker where he committed fraud and stock-market manipulation that resulted in a 4-year sentence that he served for 22 months. This was part of an agreement where he testified against several partners and subordinates in his fraud scheme.

He was also ordered to pay more than $110 million in restitution.

Belfort tells it all in his bestselling memoirs, The Wolf of Wall Street.

The Wolf of Wall Street (Memoirs)

The Wolf of Wall Street

By day he made thousands of dollars a minute. By night he spent it as fast as he could. From the binge that sank a 170-foot motor yacht and ran up a $700,000 hotel tab, to the wife and kids waiting at home and the fast-talking, hard-partying young stockbrokers who called him king, here, in Jordan Belfort’s own words, is the story of the ill-fated genius they called the Wolf of Wall Street. 

In the 1990s, Belfort became one of the most infamous kingpins in American finance: a brilliant, conniving stock-chopper who led his merry mob on a wild ride out of Wall Street and into a massive office on Long Island. It’s an extraordinary story of greed, power, and excess that no one could invent: the tale of an ordinary guy who went from hustling Italian ices to making hundreds of millions—until it all came crashing down.

Catching the Wolf of Wall Street

In this astounding account, Wall Street’s notorious bad boy—the original million-dollar-a-week stock chopper—leads us through a drama worthy of The Sopranos, from the FBI raid on his estate to the deal he cut to rat out his oldest friends and colleagues to the conscience he eventually found. 

With his kingdom in ruin, not to mention his marriage, the Wolf faced his greatest challenge yet: how to navigate a gauntlet of judges and lawyers, hold on to his kids and his enraged model wife, and possibly salvage his self-respect. It wasn’t going to be easy. 

In fact, for a man with an unprecedented appetite for excess, it was going to be hell. But the man at the center of one of the most shocking scandals in financial history soon sees the light of what matters most: his sobriety, and his future as a father and a man.
