I feel sick to my stomach and you will too approximately two seconds from now, twenty for the slower reading (but big hearted!) members of the audience. There’s an almost unbearable sadness about this permeating the DBHQ. Here’s why: Carl Icahn has been forced to put his yacht up for sale. The activist investor is seeking $37 million for what many have said he considers the fruit of his loins, the Starfire, which CityFile notes he’d started renting out for $250,000 week several months ago. Apparently, that just wasn’t cutting it. I don’t even know what to do here. I thought fund failure John Devaney was just an aberration but now Carl? Why, God? No, fuck that, I don’t even believe in God anymore. No God would allow this sort of thing to happen. And in what I hope has got to be some sort of sick joke, CNN is running a photograph of Jordan Belfort posing in front of a picture of a yacht, as if to imply that the “The Wolf of Wall Street” can no longer afford an actual tug boat. I would pray it’s not true but, like I said before, this morning’s news has stripped me of my faith.

Are the hedges having problems. I thought everything was fine? What happens if you are the last guy to ask for your money back? TIA

7 – post a picture of yourself and I’ll send you one.
#8 please refrain from spewing such ignorance. If I wanted to hear that shit i’d ride the N train. TY
I want to know if Dennis Kozlowski has had to sell his “Dog Umbrella Stand”.
Bess, your loss of home reminds me of the South Park episode when Kyle looses hope after Cartman inherited a million dollars.
Don’t worry, in the end it all was okay.
what a douche…”i was a crook.”
that’s like talking about cosa nostra in court.
That’s nothing. Anal_yst is trying to buy the Maltese Falcon. I shit you not.
@13 – great call.
Belfort is a douchebag…and his book was penned by a 10th grader
Sell or sink. Nearer my fucking god to thee, baby.
This was foretold in the book of Revelation as one of the signs.
Hey 8/9, Hitler used to call that shit niggerjazz.
8/9 = Asshole.
Before Jordan was a Wall Street hustler, before he sold cuts of meat on the streets of NY, he was a pirate Ice Cream Vendor on Jones Beach Field 3. We called him “Scoops”. Everyone who lost their fortunes in his penny stock scams can blame the Italian Ices, FROZEN MILKYWAY, Ice-cream sandwiches, Fudgicles & Creamsicles for corrupting his mind.
Must have sold the limo too – actually saw him walking on Park Ave. with his wife on Wed. night. No security, no nothing.
Anyone have a pic of Belfort’s wife Nadine, the Dutchess? He keeps bragging about how hot she is throughout the entire book.
