'Sorry to interrupt his busy schedule He’s going to have to come here so we can get a grip on what’s going on,' Judge Donnelly toldBelfort's lawyer, Sharon Cohern Levin.įortune was the first to report on the hearing.

That was likely not the message the judge in the case was looking to see from the defendant. He did post to Twitter a few hours after the hearing, writing: 'Always keep in mind when pushing boundaries to control your downside risk so you’ll always have enough in reserve to produce your own million dollar product.' Judge Ann Donnelly sided with the US Attorney's office and informed Belfort's lawyer that a payment schedule needed to be set up to account for the 'spare change' the deadbeat stockbroker had forgotten to turn over.īelfort was not present at the hearing as he was delivering a paid speech in Lithuania according to his website.

Belfort became a household name when he was portrayed by Leonardo DiCaprio in the film adaptation of his memoir The Wolf of Wall Street.

The US Attorney's office for the Eastern District of New York claims that Belfort made approximately $9 million in speaking fees between 20.

He has not made any payments over the past few years and has made little since 2009, when he handed over $700,000.

A decade after his release from prison, he has paid back $12,824,372.34, most of which comes from the $11 million seized by US Marshall's during his 1999 arrest.

A judge previously ordered Belfort to pay $110,362,993.87 in restitution to the victims he defrauded through stock-market manipulation at Stratton Oakmont.A federal court hearing on Wednesday addressed the need for a schedule of payments being made by Jordan Belfort to a fund set up for his victims.So what is that? Natural talent?

I played with this guy yesterday who probably does all the things your are told not to do, out of plane back swing, collapses on downswing, putts with the ball in driver position, chips with the feet 90 degress to the shoulders and still he plays off 9 and shot a 77 (par 71) gross yesterday. The other side of the coin is that I see people with good looking swings being stuck on 20 or so.

Probably because of the lesson my swing looks ok, I had it filmed, analyzed, shown in slow motion and even tough there are obviously some minor flaws the pro says it LOOKS good.Īt my club though there are at least 10 people with the most horrible swing but a hc lower than mine and better player than me all together. As a result I managed to go down from 22 to 12 but playing once a week now I don't seem able to go any lower. I've been playing for almost two years now and since I started I must have taken at least 30 lessons.
