33 Inspiring Jordan Belfort Quotes For Success

Jordan Belfort aka The Wolf Of Wall Street is a bestselling author and motivational speaker.

In the 1990’s Jordan started Stratton Oakmont and at it’s height went on to make $50M in one year.  As the owner of Stratton Oakmont, Belfort employed over 1,000 stockbrokers and raised over $1.5 billion and started more than 30 million-dollar-companies from scratch.

What I find most inspiring about Jordan is that despite the fact that he succumbed to the traps of the high flying Wall Street lifestyle and experienced a very public fall from grace, he had the strength of character to learn from his mistakes and turn his life around.

Today he is best know for his bestselling book, The Wolf Of Wall Street. It was also made into a movie where Jordan is played by Leonardo Dicaprio.

Below I’ve put together 33 of the best Jordan Belfort Quotes on success that will motivate you.

Jordan has a lot of experience you can learn from so please do go through the quotes and start applying his wisdom into your life.
