Jordan Ross Belfort is an American author, motivational speaker, and former stockbroker. In 1999, he 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 the memoir The Wolf of Wall Street, which was adapted into a film and released in 2013.
ABOUT THE OXFORD UNION SOCIETY: The Oxford Union is the world's most prestigious debating society, with an unparalleled reputation for bringing international guests and speakers to Oxford. Since 1823, the Union has been promoting debate and discussion not just in Oxford University, but across the globe.
The audience has not experienced life,and or had to work for a living. What this guys says is gold.I'm in my 60's,had my own business,been through a lot of what he is saying.I wish I knew this stuff when I was in my 20's.
I was in the same boat , had no real steady job until I was 23, now I'm 26 and starting my own business.
Look at what your hobby is, what area of knowledge you have that you can utilize.
Find a job related to it and learn all the skills you need on the job.
Work your ass off and become the best in your team, find out what you are good at and stick with it, overcome
obstacles, things you are bad at.
Always be on time, always do a job well done and set the standards for yourself to highest level.
Within the last 3 years I had been promoted 3 times, that's one promotion and a bigger monthly paycheck a year.
If you you are the best in your team and you don't get promoted, look for another job in another company.
Stick to that and you'll make a decent living in no time and from there you can use the skills you learned to become your own boss and really make a lot of money (if you want to)
Yay, U;n 56 and only now am I getting to understand life :) These young people are understandably bored, a) because they are mostly not motivated by money, and that's not a judgement, but he is or used to be very motivated by money (again, no judgement). A very, very interesting talk, but normally, that audience, and that speaker would not normally have ever met !
i am in my late forties and i am going to try in real estate, i love the belfort story
Jordan is spitting beautiful knowledge and this crowd is filled with dead stiffs
Nah it's just the UK, we're reserved like that
Looks like a salesmeeting
@@robatfreedomhouse Maybe just a bit skeptical as well. Knowing his past. A lot of the crowd seems to have troubles keeping there eyes on him.
He’s talking about hardships and failures. Something these people have never experience in their lives so they can’t relate
@@sayoshinakamario And likely never will, mama and papa will make sure of that.
Soo much energy in the dude!
Lol
Man I buy shit from him
Coke doesn't last long enough, he'd be coming down halfway through and need another line...
It's probably meth.
im dying laughing at these comments
There's still coke left in his body since 1997
In case you are like me, who forget to make notes of the 10 commandments JB said... It's here:
(1) Thou shall not think things are okay just because things are transparent.
* The scene you get into may not be as good as it seems like.
* Check your own ethics and integrity by gut
(2) Thou shall trust the feeling of your stomach
* Listen to that feeling
(3) Thou shall commit yourself to fail elegantly
* Protect your down side
* Spread the risks with others
* It's rare to get it right the first time
(4) Thou shall commit yourself to succeed wildly
* When you get right, understand what's the right moves and process
(5) Thou shall know average sucks
* Things working well = no change (no pain)
* Your own standard leads to passion
(6) Thou shall commit thou-self to master specialized skills
* JB's method of learning how to write books
* Model masters and copy and learn from them
* First thing to do: I want to do this, what are the skills I need? Master the craft, become a force of nature.
(7) Thou shall not emotionally invested in thou's goals
* Goals = side poles, serve for the vision, logically based
* Vision = emotionally based
* Problem: set goals too low.
* Goals show where you want to go
(8) Thou shall cut all thee
* Do too many things one time
* Do give yourself a way out
* Go all in, take the risk
* Take out options
(9) Thou shall not buy into your own BS stories
* Most people buy into their BS and get nothing they want!
* See things as they are , not worse than they are!
* Get honest with yourself: what you know, what you don't know
* Get rid of your stories
* You are like a GPS: where you are, where you go (vision)
(10) Thou shall commit to identify their "WHY"
* The secret to become successful
* Money won't take you far
* What is the deepest level cause to be successful
* Get deep
* JB: Kids
* Never give up
* Most people give up too soon
JB on money:
* money is a solve to problems
* money matters
* money is single most important things for 1) food 2) shelters 3) health
Thanks JW. I have a feeling you're going to be very successful no matter what you do, if you're aren't already of course.
thank you!
My GAWD what a dead crowd....painful. Excellent "real world" information regardless if you like him or not.
Kaptain Kid don’t really see what his alleged narcissism has to do with the points he’s making, and I would think it a foregone conclusion that these talks are frequently hosted by eccentric characters 🤷🏻♂️
Honestly what is wrong with this audience, engage the man!
That "man" is a con-artist, I wouldn't engage with him at all.
@@sparkly21 and that's how you'll fail in life. Lessons to be learned from everyone regardless of their past and the wolf spits nothing but facts these days.
@@sparkly21 Then why the fuck are you here... Just to give everyone a morality speech...?
That's what I was thinking LOL
@@sparkly21 con artist are one of the smartest people.. Its just that they are cunning
Jordan is an amazing speaker. Love his energy.
You can see why he was a great salesman.
That collar is incredibly irritating
Part of me died a little during this presentation
I never noticed until halfway through when I read this comment.. Now I can't unsee it..
Fuck you that's all I can see now
Only a toffee nosed idiot would bring that up. Listen instead
I just want to reach into the screen, pop it out and make them symmetrical...
imagine running the most infamous pump and dump scheme in history, only to be invited to give a talk at oxford years later.
Imagine going from banging hookers and living the life to meeting all these boring fucks with zero feedback
Ik I always wonder if he's just fucking with us
He came out smelling like a 🌹. Lucky guy but he needs to pay up his victims. He still makes quite a bit of 💰
Rather believe a man who sincerely admits and corrects his mistakes than one who claims to be perfect.
This crowed will get and indeed have been in the monetary success Jordan has strived for, predominantly under the shadow of their parents. They don't give a damn. They are just there. You are full of energy Jordan Belfort, and the symbol of honesty.
Damn bro you killed them.
What subjecting is equally is derogatory bro ‘fire with fire statement.
You feel that life’s not fair...
That was a great speach! Thanks Jordan!
This guy is so passionate and has so much presence and charisma. Would do very well in Hollywood if he ever made a go of it. A really good speaker. Questions from the audience left something to be desired however. They could for example have asked " what we're you doing and thinking when you were our age (early 20's) ? " What would you do differently if you were to do it all over again "? " Where do you think you got your self belief and confidence from?" Missed opportunities.
I would have asked “What in your opinion is the #1 best way to become successful? If you had to pick just one what would it be?”
I see why your surname is Bozo. You can relate to this clown. I am from LI, I worked the honest side of Wall St in that era. My brother worked for an outfit similar to Belfort’s. This guy was outsized in his exploits. But no more special than an overgrown toenail. He has no class ( though he purports so much which his mother has ). Wonderful to drag her into the pitiful account.
Love hearing Jordan talk wish he had a TH-cam channel. These students were like dead fish I would love to hear this guy speak in person.
he has his own channel now check him out good videos
He does have a channel
This speech is of gold dust! Thanks Jordan
he forgetten his pasts and started new life that's the self confidence this man deserves big salute...
Not forgotten, but accepted.
he still has to pay the victims the money he ripped off, only a small amount was paid
Audience - "This isn't Leonardo DiCaprio!"
😂😂😂😂😂
Looooool. That would explain alot.
This deserves more likes 🤣🤣
Delicate snowflakes find reality and the truth offensive in their pampered sheltered little world. Jordan Belfort paid for his crimes, not only that he took the lessons he learned and sharing them with anyone who will listen. #respect
100 million$ in debt yeah he's litterly paying for them but he's also still successful
What the fuck triggered you holy shit, literally at what point in this talk did somebody get offended or over sensitive?? You're crazy
Grow up. Respect? The guy is obviously drugged out of his head and sniffing and not sounding very good. Your the snowflake who can't take it because people arnt cheering like crazy. Idiot.
@@quantum7690 I think he's yet to pay back the people he scammed. Which was asked of him.
Be grateful you get to hear such a good public speaker and business men only fools would get bored
Convicted scammer lecturing future political and financial scammers. It's definitely Oxford.
OMG I hate intelligent people too!
haha thats soo true
Don’t be salty just because they didn’t accept you lol
Facts haha
Because I'm sure you've achieved so much in your life
"Am I allowed to curse? No? Well, fuck it...not like I'm getting paid..." ROOOOFL!!! Jordan is the best.
The dude has gone full circle, Respect!!
I think one of the reasons that the room is so non-responsive is that his message is not really targeted to them. I have heard his talks before and he usually attracts people who have fallen on hard times or cannot get ahead in life. Here, he speaks to future cabinet members, professors, members the upper class and other successful people in the making. Those guys ARE on track, they HAVE the right story. Thus, they do not really need his advice from their point of view.
Another reason is that Oxford encourages critical thinking and many audience members may simply be thinking about and analysing his words. That does not mean they disagree, but they may be busy mulling it over.
Very true
Maybe he made some mishief in the past. However, he is redeeming himself. Every one deserves the oportunity to do so.
He was a master salesman and is teaching how to do it honestly. Let him teach one of the best skills every one can learn. He is a master and every one there in that room should feel blessed to have him. I wish I was there myself.
there is nothing honest about salesman, its about persuasion, emotional manipulation it amoral and should be a crime. would you persuade your family to buy something or would do try to make them do it rationally as possible, check his channel, he is clearly amoral person.
Great speaker, excellent talk. Don't think the audience could appreciate the wisdom in it. Later they will
Crowd look like they are about to fall asleep
This is phenomenal.
Inspiring speech man!
Wrong audience.....too rich to know what hustle means. Great speech Jordan!
This guy is the only one i would work for as an employee.
to rip people off?
This man knows how to give a speech!
Jordon Belford legend ♥️♥️
His speech is Gold, and this room has zero energy full of nerd ungrateful wannabe rich Teenagers.
I was thinking the same exact thing. Just a bunch of spoiled little ingrates..
Was thinking the same thing!! ZERO ENERGY!!
I totally agree with you these students are only training to be employees. they look like a pack of zombies
Low energy Oxford. They should definitely invite low energy Jeb.
huh? this is an English institution -- everyone doesn't have to behave like an Oprah crowd. Also, we dont hold with that shouting back routine. we are independent thinkers. the worrying thing to me is the cheer he got at the beginning. this is a (on record) crook, cheat and liar.
Legend he is
Absolutley Incredible From Jordan.
I think he comes across as actually really smart guy.
No shit
Oxford toffs struggling to realise there is a real world outside the library and it can be pretty rough
I bet you didnt have an education
@@helloMRdj1 oh its ongoing my darling, all life long 😁😁
@@rushocxskb8478 youre one of those "university of life" people?
@@helloMRdj1 what are they?
this man has done much more than many here, good or bad, he's got that influence talent, he used it to destroy, but he still got it, haters hate, I get it though
Damn that crowd was horrible ! What a shame ! Jordan's speech was so interesting and he's such an entertaining speaker
This guy is fantastic!
My theory for what makes successful ppl is they have the ability to communicate. They're social and make friends and connections.
And that's the one thing that makes you successful. That's it.
That was awesome.
Jordan Belfort is every business school should have as their lecturer
Rather have a dude that unbottons his shirt and pounds on his chest
Amazing!
Read the book. Such an amazing life story.
excellent speech by jordan he’s striving to do better and is a pure role model for why ethics and integrity are important for future entrepreneurs. yes he did bad things in his past but to make that an argument for not listening to him is stupid. These types of comments are posted by people who don’t believe that people can change and great things can happen in life. Be positive and strive to be successful with ethics and integrity, that’s the message he’s trying to get across.
What a great speech....
big wold of little town, great honesty!
Finally a good speaker on oxford union
These kids will be employEEs, he’s a born employER.
He's a broke ass bitch www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-05-16/-wolf-of-wall-street-belfort-isn-t-paying-his-debts-u-s-says
this was probably one of Jordan's better talks
His energy is amazing. Just lights up the room
He has no barriers!
The most ungrateful and unresponsive audience in the history of these Union talks. What a great man he is, such amazing points.
Amazing speach
Speech*
If his story can keep one young man or woman from going down the dark path of corruption, then he succeeded.
He could save someone years of heartache, shame, humiliation and pain. If Michael Milken can be redeemed, why not Jordan Belfort?
Buch of ultra lame questions from ultra lame kids. They have the king of sales in front of them and they waste it.
King of Fraud
@@andyw9255 King of sales
@@andyw9255 Go get a job at Mcdonald's cos that's where you belong
@@peterroyce3843 you belong in a special needs school -- I think the kids would really be able to relate to you
At the beginning he said he was not getting paid for this. People don’t put value in things they don’t have to pay or work for. Being from Oxford many of these kids normal is getting things given to them by their parents.
Guy comes in to talk about the real world and half the kids fall asleep. Should have talked about some abstract theoretical concepts instead. Next time Jordan
Ah that famous "real world" of selling penny stocks to vulnerable elderly people.
@@andyw9255 first of all he didn't get rich by selling to old people. The whole points of stratton oak was to sell to the wealthiest. Second of all, maybe you missed the talk then? And in conclusion, fuck you Andy.
@@ByzantineCapitalManagement how’s your call centre scam job going? 🤣 Belfort fanboys really are the world’s weirdest incels
I got a kick out of him telling students at Oxford not to settle for being average.
I can see how he hooked so many people, and even the most savvy of us probably doubt that we could have resisted his charm in his hay day. It's a shame it wasn't like today where every phone call is recorded or anyone who had those recordings would sell them for a mint.
Powerful speach 💪🏾.. And ironically his crimes just pulled back the curtains on what the financial industry was all up to 🤷🏽♂️👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿💯👌🏿
145 people have thumbed down. We have our reasons n have our perspectives though I wonder I’d they know redemption, know a positive vicissitude when they find it.
Great talk and in the right place for comprehension...
Natural public speaker.
Now i know hw he might had pitched the stocks....lol
Had anyone noticed the future millionaire in this landscape? You see all these nerds, all these bored and uninterested kids, with absolutely no passion for entrepreneurship or anything related to business, then comes this guy. At 25:52 you can see a guy, and his AMAZING smile and impression on his face, watching his mentor. He is in the wrong environment. He will thrive through all those.
wtf bro
Yeap, I've noticed the same guy when I was watching and I knew which one you're talking about before I even looked back. That means we're naturally paying attention and we're analyzing without necessity for any extra motivation.
77Hollywood77 , I am damn sure that all of us have done one thing from the start of this video, trying to find one interested person in the room..😂😂😂😂
And then we found him. The second favorite is the girl sitting on jb's left hand side..😂😂
It's crazy how much he stands out from the other people just by paying attention honestly to Jordan Belfort.
they're bored because they can see through him
Wow great speech
That guy just had his dream of being a "stockbroker" brought down to earth.
There is nothing better than listening to someone who has failed and had learned from it. Not many were as spectacular as his. We can't forgive him for his misdeeds, but we can learn from the realities of life he describes. The most important of his ten messages is to be the best at something or at least as good as you can possibly be. People will pay good money for your wisdom.
What can you learn from him? That a life of excess leads to destruction? Thanks I already know that
@@helloMRdj1 He did his time in jail and then came out and worked hard to rebuild his life, public reputation and career. To pick yourself up like that requires, drive, courage, persistence and self-belief. Any person can learn from the principles of such circumstances, regardless of their opinion of Belfort's past lifestyle of excess.
Wow... His brain is ALIVE and on fire.
This guy knows how to speak. Really. He keeps speaking till the end.
He described the whole thing that how to get out of from average mindedness..that's awesome
And at the end he was met with average mindedness from the world's "brightest"
42:54 look at the black girl on right when he says hes sober lol
"Who's seen the movie Jerry Maguire", three people raise their hands LOL. The movie isn't even that old wtf. Great speech from Jordan!
Its old as fuck
You Rock luv!
This was an Amazing talk with great tips but it was hard to watch it with that audience who looked clueless!
You are a lucky one!
The guy in the front in the red jacket is late for his shift at McDonald's...
26:00 was really good
Cringe at the pen question
I almost died it from the cringe
That's a completely fair comment about climate change. The fact he doesn't believe it doesn't change his attitude towards making the planet a better place. He still has the morality and desire to change how things are and work towards a more sustainable future. He's right in saying why should it matter and I agree with it's what we should be doing anyway, regardless of the reasons why.
It's the whole thing of assigning labels, I think. Everyone has to have a label now. Straight, gay, man, woman, believer, non-believer. Everyone wants to belong to something. Sadly, I've seen this divide more than anything else. Petty arguments over topics that don't really matter, in the big scheme of things. We should already be doing it without all of the debate and nonsense attached to it.
Most of the comments below are saying the audience is dead, not so, his manner is too overbearing and they’re not having it. Compare this to Jordan Peterson’s talks and there’s no comparison.
Even his collar is coked up!
Guys, it's fine. Oxford is new to Belfort. They take time.
Would have been awesome if he gave the lecture while on Quaaludes
He physically looks liike a combination of Sylvester Stallone & Frankie Avalon
LOL @42:52 When he says "I'm sober now since 1997", look at the girl on the rights face
"mhmmmmmmmmm..."
Yeah, she was being dismissive throughout the talk, and then had her five minutes to virtue signal at the end.
There was a thousand wrong attitudes this video, surprisingly none of them came from the wolf.
Pivoting he knows. Great points.
actually i kinda agree what he says
For Sales Knowledge go to 44:50. Someone asks about the 'Sell Me this Pen' question to Jordan. Great insight on what JB says.
a good salesman acc to Jordan does not sell to someone who doesnt want a pen. A great salesman would say to that person - what do you write with today?
What we have here is lived wisdom talking to people who expect a medal for losing….because that’s what they got!
The bloke in the red jacket at the front looked bored out of his brains hahaha
Because he's poor and always will be
i could not possible be bored listening to him !
@@MrDjLawless looool.
A stockbroker is a sales job. What a legend🤗👍
how does he have so much energy
Coke
What? You never did coke i can tell you that. Not one sign of coke on him lol.@@williamhenley8593
You can tell that drug addiction is a major problem in society in the UK by the applause given as Jordan stated the length of his sobriety. Who'd think that these prats in the audience would even care to know or acknowledge such realities as most surely have other things on their minds like what kind of tea will be served afterwards and whether they will wear a tie or a silk dress to the mixer later that night. The little shits impressed me. Now only if Jordan added, "inherit all that you can in life from your parents and gain influence by association".
21:00 (around) Give your self no option, no way out, burn the ships.
Almost every q & a starts with the interview er asking questions. This is the only one I've seen where the guest immediately addressess the audience and tells a story before a single question 😅
Alguém legenda essa palestra no português correto por favor!
The look on Jordans face when he asked about that feeling in the stomach . .
And said you got problems . .
I thought that would have been I mic drop moment . .
I pictured him saying
Jordan:
"If you don't have that, northing I can say or
do that will do a thing for you . .
I'm out have a good night . .
I can't stop looking at the collar on his shirt
For Oxford students it takes them seconds to think to say just a yes 10:33
Belfort is just relentless!
