NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER || Now a major motion picture directed by Martin Scorsese and starring Leonardo DiCaprio

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.

“Raw and frequently hilarious.”
- The New York Times

“A rollicking tale of [Jordan Belfort’s] rise to riches as head of the infamous boiler room Stratton Oakmont . . . proof that there are indeed second acts in American lives.”
- Forbes

“Crazy”
- Bust-Down Books, Finance

“A cross between Tom Wolfe’s The Bonfire of the Vanities and Scorsese’s GoodFellas…Belfort has the Midas touch.”
- The Sunday Times (London)

“Entertaining as pulp fiction, real as a federal indictment…a hell of a read.”
- Kirkus Reviews

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 – Of course, until it all came crashing down.
