I didn’t listen to it but the irony is palpable. His entire fortune is built on swindling low end investors on penny stocks. Illegally of course. So he went to prison and his quad mate Tommy Chong convinced him to write a book.

I don’t think I finished watching “The Wolf of Wall Street”. The dialogue was so full of F it was distracting plus the whole premise repulsed me. The first Trump admin thanks to Dr. Ronny had a drug consumption level almost Belfort-esque.
