The Wolf Of Wall Street...

"BY AGE 26, I WAS ON TOP OF THE WORLD,
 MAKING $50 MILLION A YEAR."
   - JORDAN BELFORT
I'm not going to lie, I remember the minute I first ever saw the add for 'The Wolf Of Wall Street' I was intrigued, it got me, mainly for the fact is starred Leonardo DiCapro but also the fact it was a success story about a young man interested in stocks who followed his dream and became one of the richest men alive. I didn't however know it would be completely based around sex, money, power and drugs but it follows the tale of this 'Jordan Belfort' who goes through his life being a 'poor man and a rich man, and he chooses being rich every single time'. 
I had so much faith in this film I bought it without ever even seeing it, and I can assure you it did NOT disappoint.
This is a story about wealth, and what money can do to a person, at the start Jordan is shocked by the drugs that are being taken, the way money is being made (through lies and nothing being legal) but by the end  he makes so much money he doesn't know what to do with it.
I can tell you, I have the attention span of a goldfish, so for me to sit down by myself and watch a film for three hours does NOT happen regularly but there's something about this film that got me, and you know what if I could I'd sit down right now and watch it again. 
 It shows a lot about entrepreneurship, and what it takes to get to the top but also a lot of life lessons on how to definitely not get to the top. Without ruining it for you Jordan doesn't end up in too good of a state after losing his family and almost his best friend after a drug session.
 My favourite part (apart from Leo obviously) are the life quotes in the film. I've learned so much from it and I'm a nineteen year old girl with no interest in the stocks!!!
I'd highly recommend the Wolf Of Wall street to you. It may not be a girly sleepover kind of film, but it really does open you eyes to so much!!

    We’re bombarded by people and things, wanting our time and money, so naturally we’ve evolved a filter that’s highly attuned to the first few seconds of any interaction. And if you happen to be selling something, you almost get less than an instant. You have to establish that you’re a person worth listening to straight away. How long did Jordan Belfort’s Stockbrokers in Stratton Oakmont, have to make an impression on the phone?Just seconds, in a tough cold calling environment where they were looking to secure significant investments. Yet this firm was making over $50 million a year off the back of these calls. here are Jordan Belfort sales training,Straight line Jordan Belfort,Jordan Belfort straight line persuasion,The wolf of wall street Jordan Belfort,Jordan Belfort straight line system and Wolf of wall street movie.
    How was it done?
    Through a tried and tested System What’s on offer here is that exact System, used to train Thousands of Staff to make hundreds of Millions. There will be no more uncertainly in you or your method. You will close whoever is closeable. This is the absolute fast track to sales success.
