Career

Belfort conducted door-to-door meat and seafood sales in Long Island, New York. His meat business grew from a one-man show to a company with multiple employees and weekly sales of 5,000 pounds of beef and fish. When he was 25, he filed for bankruptcy and got hired as a stockbroker trainee at L.F. Rothschild. Reports say Belfort’s first boss told him the keys to success were hookups, cocaine, and masturbation. During the 1987 Black Monday stock market meltdown, he got fired from this company. Despite this setback, Belfort focused on earning the kind of money that more experienced stockbrokers did. Belfort worked for many financial institutions in the late 1980s, taking in all the information he could. After making some changes to his marketing plan, he decided to start his business in 1989.

Early in the 1990s, Belfort founded Stratton Oakmont. The company uses a boiler room to advertise penny stocks. Pump-and-dump fraud was the method utilized by Belfort to cheat his investors. When Stratton Oakmont was most prosperous, Belfort had over 1,000 stockbrokers working for him and more than $1 billion under his care. The National Association of Securities Dealers focused on Stratton, Oakmont, and Belfort. The group was attentively examining the company’s business dealings. The company went out of business because of the National Association of Securities Dealers’ expulsion of Stratton Oakmont in December 1996. According to reports, Belfort deposited his cash in Swiss banks. The money was smuggled into Switzerland with the assistance of his wife’s aunt and mother-in-law. He allegedly hosted parties with midget-throwing competitions while running Stratton Oakmont.
