Borgelt -Wolf of Wall Street

Jordan Belfort, the main character in The Wolf of Wall Street, is a very charismatic person that focuses on his success. He will do whatever is necessary for him to live a luxury lifestyle which includes putting himself above others. He constantly uses drugs, money, and sex to cope with all his problems, which makes him a terrible role model for others. He said that in the morning, he would head to his sauna to, “Sweat out five Quaaluds, two grams of coke, and three milligrams of Xanax that he had consumed the night before.” That statement right there from Jordan just blows my mind on how someone could do that. I totally disapprove of Jordan’s use of drugs and I believe he should be punished for that. His lifestyle is full of illegal activities, so that right there makes him a bad influence for the audience and an unreliable author.
