Jordan Belfort whom you may know as the "Wolf of Wall Street" as portrayed by Leonard DiCaprio talks about his childhood and how he knew as a young child that he always wanted to be rich.  He did well in school, sold Italian ice on the beach in the summers to put himself through college but once he got there and the instructor told him becoming a dentist isn't going to make you rich, he immediately left.  He started selling door-to-door meats and realized how great of a salesman he was.  Jordan talks about what it takes to become a good salesman, why you need to recognize your skills and put that into action.  He also talks about his biggest lessons, the art of the closer and what holds people back from becoming what they want to be. @wolfofwallst Learn more about your ad choices.
