"lower then pond scum"this is when Jordan just started his job, he was a stock broker. This is the company Jordan learned the ins-and-outs from.. Jordan was great at selling stocks and him working there made him even better.
Then Jordan got released from his job and he went through his "call to adventure stage". He got hired selling penny stocks in a much smaller office and he brought his talent and knowledge to his new job. Further along in his new job, he became the all star salesmen at this new job.
Furthermore Jordan met his neighbor at a restaurant his name is Donnie, this is when he went through his "assistance stage". They talked about opening up their own business, and Donnie quit his job and went to work with Jordan. From there on Jordan knew he could trust him.
Jordan left the little office that was selling penny stocks and together they opened up their own business, the "departure stage". The name of this business was Stratton Oakmont. At first it was very slow like any business that just opened would be.
The "trials stage" was when they started to blow up. They started to make millions of dollars in their investment company. Their name, office, and staff got bigger and bigger; Jordan became known from the media as,
"the Wolf of Wall Street"
His "approach stage" was when he began partying and doing multiple drugs 24/7 as said in the story.
"On a daily basis I consume enough drugs to sedate Manhattan, Long Island, and Queens for a month"Jordan's "crisis stage" is when the law began to catch on to all of the illegal things they were doing. At first they couldn't go in and arrest him because they did not have enough proof to arrest anyone.
His "treasure stage" was when he took multiple drugs and began to take out his anger on his family. While driving when high Jordan hit multiple things and was caught by the police at his home and was taken in to custody.
The "result stage" was when Jordan finally got caught and the police finally had enough proof from the company that they were doing things illegal, Jordan then went to jail for 22 months.
When Jordan was released from prison he went into his "return stage" Jordan is now drug free, and began talking to his wife, and began making up for all of the bad things he has done.
His "new life stage" is when he finally got back with his wife and kids and they have forgiven him. After all of the obstacles in his life Jordan proceeded to stay drug free.
The "resolution" of the story or the main lesson of this story is to never go against your family even when things go bad because they are the ones that will always have your back.
