This guy did not only rip off not so bright people. He is an out an out crook found guilty of market manipulation and sentenced to 4 years in prison. Personally I would not want to meet him if he paid me to.
Too many people buy his story because it was glamourised in a film. The fact is he defrauded and manipulated the markets to his own ends.
Fortunately as with all crooks he got caught and lost his freedom and his reputation. :thumbup:


Yes he did.

I am fascinated with human behaviour. That is my profession. If I was only interested in the behaviour of happy virtuous souls I'd be flipping burgers in Macdonalds which I would hate to do as a job as I'd find it incredibly boring and unfulfilling.

You must be having a field day with Roathie then!!!

Spot on. He is fascinating and a one off. He not only made money by market manipulation, thats just what the film showed (which wasn't glamourised as people suggest, it was glamorous). He is one of the greatest salesmen america has ever seen, he got greedy and started taking advantage of the system and people.

Its again like suggesting george best wasnt a great footballer because he was a womaniser and an alcoholic. The negatives arent what makes them fascinating and legendary figures, it is the natural ability and minds that created the above.

Oh and a money launderer. Oh yes and he still owes over £75m to his victims.
Totally different to the George Best scenario as Bestie did not cheat people out of hard earned money by conning them.

Tel, I don't think anyone is saying that he didn't do wrong or that ripping people off is right. He did lots of things that were very clever and his personality and determination to be absolutely f*cking minted is what really interests people. I don't like the fact that he punched his partner either but it won't stop me being interested in him or, come to think of it, megalomaniacs, sociopaths and desperately ambitious people. The Facebook story fascinates me also with regards to how other people had the idea, helped but ended up on the scrap heap next to a young billionaires empire.

I am also fascinated with Thatcher, Tony Abbott and Murdoch. They have all done things that I disagree with. In fact I hated Thatcher. It doesn't mean I shouldn't be interested in them or even learn something from them be it something I could do to better myself or something I could avoid to stop myself turning into a complete c**t.

Terrance if you missed the point any more you would literally be a blunt rubber :laughing6:

Did George bests womanising mean he didnt have a genius footballing brain? No. Did Belforts criminal activity mean he didnt have a genius business brain? No. Im sure it will sink in soon

And yes you certainly do live in a fantasy world Terrence im longing for the day you actually back up your fake claims :laughing6:

Again spot on. Mike Tyson was a great boxer but a c**t of a bloke, so what, he was still a great boxer :thumbright:

So how do you boost sales by inviting local successful business people for a VIP section then? :lol:

Are you suggesting more people will go because I'm going? :?

Re: Guess who i had a phone call from today.....

Sun Jun 22, 2014 10:35 am

All I'm highlighting is that the bloke sounds desperate, which you back up by highlighting that a nobody like yourself is on his VIP list. No doubt you'll be rubbing shoulders with Bob from the local newsagents and Shane from the burger stall.

You must be truly humbled

Re: Guess who i had a phone call from today.....

Sun Jun 22, 2014 10:39 am

Not quite. I believe a select few local businessmen are invited to each seminar, typically the best up and coming businessmen the city had to offer which I undoubtedly am :thumbright: complete with multi million pound turnover - so not quite Bob the butcher unfortunately for you :D

After a quick look it seems his seminars regularly sell out and he gets paid per date not dependant on tickets. Desperate he is not :laughing6:

I am also invited by tennis Australia to be a VIP at their events too. Oh to be a nobody eh? :laughing6:

Have another go....

Re: Guess who i had a phone call from today.....

I'm afraid the fact he's flogging tickets on Scoopon at massively discounted tickets as reported widely in the press recently suggests he's not much of a pull. However, if going makes you feel important, then fill your boots.

By the way, well done for being one of hundreds of thousands of people with a multi million pound business.

It does make me. Wonder however, if life is so fantastic, why is there such a void to fill. I can only guess that something is missing from you life to be such an attention seeking whore.

Whatever the response, I won't be paying you any further attention. You're simply not stimulating enough.

Bye.

someone really doesn't understand business do they? :laughing6:

These third party sale companies are golden. They are used by clever people to essentially sell their product and access their mailing list for almost nothing. Belforts tickets would probably be solely traded on that website so he can make a false price. If he puts ticket prices falsely at $500 and then says to scoopon that of they sell them on his behalf and send out their ads to their mailing list of millions then they can have the deal for $170 each (the actual regular price). Selling on these sites is not a sign of desperation but modern business warfare in an ever increasingly competitive advertising marketplace, and have even invested in similar ideas myself in Holland and Belgium :thumbup:

Have you noticed that furniture companies always seem to have a sale on? Why is that I hear you ask... Well its the same concept, they are regulated so that as long as the furniture is marked up at the full falsely high price at some point in the year then its all fine.

It seems you are one such schmuck they are targeting :laughing6:



By the way, well done for being one of hundreds of thousands of people with a multi million pound business.

thank you very much. Although what sets me apart from many and gets me noticed by the likes of belfort and written about in Brisbane business literature is the ability to make multiple multi million pound businesses from scratch multi nationally when i havent even had my 30th birthday yet :thumbright:

It does make me. Wonder however, if life is so fantastic, why is there such a void to fill. I can only guess that something is missing from you life to be such an attention seeking whore.

void? Attention? Does gareth bale have a void to fill by giving interviews about football? Does he seek attention by talking about football? No. :thumbup:

Whatever the response, I won't be paying you any further attention. You're simply not stimulating enough.

dont feel you have to run off just because your poorly researched post has failed miserably :laughing6:

Bye.

I had a call from the one and only Jordan Belfort (THE wolf of Wall Street). He is touring Australia doing business seminars and invited me to his Brisbane function on 23rd of June after reading a piece about my business in some locally and recently released business literature. A complete honour.


Jordan Belfort ripped off thousands and thousands of honest, hard working, low income families. He wasn't a cavalier Robin Hood who robbed off the rich, he purposely destroyed the lives of ordinary families. And you think that's a complete honour? You need to get your morals realigned, sharpish.

As for respecting him - well first of all the film was heavily sensationalized and if you YouTube 'Stratton Oakment party' you will see him at one of his not so legendary parties trying to give a speech with no one listening or caring.

You have obviously watched the film and knocked one out over the antics of Belfort, but to call meeting the c**t an honour is a really cringable embarrassment, especially as he only has contacted you as he needs to sell tickets to his seminar. You have made yourself look silly cunto.
