by Jordan Belfort
Diary of a douchebag (racist and homophobic to boot). One of the worst books I have ever read. A terribly written trip into a narcissists head that is about 521 pages too long. One star is way too much for this trash.
After Finishing Jordan Belfort's book, The Wolf of Wall Street, all I can say is wow. His story captures the American Dream, from Jordan starting out dirt-poor with $13 to his name, to owning a billion dollar a year brokerage firm.

So, this book was not near what I thought it was going to be. I was expecting it to me more about the SEC violations and the ramifications of all that. Instead it was a self-portrait of an addict. Honestly, this book should be marketed to recovering addicts, because that was the bulk of the book asi...
