'What separates Jordan's story from others like it, is the brutal honesty.' - Leonardo DiCaprio

By day he made thousands of dollars a minute. By night he spent it as fast as he could, on drugs, sex, and international globe-trotting. From the binge that sunk a 170-foot motor yacht, crashed a Gulfstream jet, and ran up a $700,000 hotel tab, to the wife and kids who waited for him for at home, and the fast-talking, hard-partying young stockbrokers who called him king and did his bidding, here, in his own inimitable words, is the story of the ill-fated genius they called...

THE WOLF OF WALL STREET

In the 1990s Jordan Belfort, former kingpin of the notorious investment firm Stratton Oakmont, became one of the most infamous names in American finance: a brilliant, conniving stock-chopper who led his merry mob on a wild ride out of the canyons of Wall Street and into a massive office on Long Island. In this astounding and hilarious tell-all autobiography, Belfort narrates a story of greed, power, and excess no one could invent - the story of an ordinary guy who went from hustling Italian ices at sixteen to making hundreds of millions. Until it all came crashing down.

Reseñas de la Crítica

The outrageous memoirs of the real Gordon Gekko (Daily Mail)

Reads like a cross between Tom Wolfe's Bonfire of the Vanities and Scorsese's Goodfellas Sunday Times (Sunday Times)

Entertaining, enlightening but a bit long winded

I enjoyed the account of Belfort's life, the reader does a great job bringing it to life (although some of the voices are a bit much). The story does drag on a bit in parts, but overall very good commute listen.

Very enjoyable

Found it very enjoyable , listened to it twice. Enjoyed the reader voice. Would recommend this book to any one who enjoyed the movie.

Great Read, great performance

A great read, and even better performance. the audio presenter really gets into the role and conveys emotion and action of the story.

Loved It.
highly recommend everyone listening to it

Brilliant!!!

What made the experience of listening to The Wolf of Wall Street the most enjoyable?

The way it was written and presented was fabulous.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

The plot was always unpredictable.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

The narrator was great and was able to portray characters well.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

YES!

Great!

Great story, great acting, i like that I finally know the back story of the movie, and like i heard, i think i need to go to drug rehab just for listening to this book!

Ouch!!!

After a few hours I could not take it anymore. It is a brilliant story performed by the best but if the continuous blasphemy of ‘Oh my god’ and ‘Jesus Christ’ offends your values, this is not for you. Over and over in paragraphs and sentences.

I wish there was a ‘peep’ version that I could enjoy.
