Jordan Ross Belfort (; born July 9, 1962) is an American author, motivational speaker, and former stockbroker who pleaded guilty to fraud and related crimes in connection with stock market manipulation and running a boiler room as part of a penny stock scam. Belfort spent 22 months in prison as part of an agreement under which he gave testimony against numerous partners and subordinates in his fraud scheme. He published a memoir, ''The Wolf of Wall Street'', which was adapted into a film, released in 2013. It was directed by Martin Scorsese and starred Leonardo DiCaprio as Belfort. ==Early life== Belfort was born in 1962 in the Bronx〔 borough of New York City to a Jewish family. His parents, Leah and Max Belfort, are both accountants. He was raised in Bayside, Queens.〔 Between completing high school and starting college, Belfort and his close childhood friend Elliot Loewenstern earned $20,000 selling Italian ice from styrofoam coolers to people at a local beach.〔Belfort, Jordan. "The Wolf of Wall Street". Random House. pp. 112. ISBN 978-0-553-80546-8〕 Belfort planned on using the money earned with Loewenstern to pay for a dental-school qualification〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Jordan Belfort Biography )〕 and he enrolled in the Baltimore College of Dental Surgery; however, he left after the dean of the school said to him on his first day at the college: "The golden age of dentistry is over. If you’re here simply because you’re looking to make a lot of money, you’re in the wrong place." Belfort eventually graduated from American University with a degree in biology.〔
