Jordan Belfort, a motivational speaker, is planning on using his earnings from a speaking tour to repay $50 million to the investors he wronged during his time as a broker, which was characterized by the film “Wolf of Wall Street”.
He is expected to make around $100 million this year, but will only be repaying back his share of the fine, which is $50 million to the victims of his fraud.
“After six months of putting all the profit from the U.S. tour into an escrow account, it will go directly back to investors,” Belfort said. ”Once everyone is paid back, believe me I will feel a lot better.”
