The victims, many of whom lost their life savings, are also disappointed that DiCaprio made a 30-second promotional video for Belfort's new motivational-speaking business in which the actor extolled him as a "shining example of the transformative qualities of ambition and hard work".
"It's really time for people to stop glorifying the crooks on Wall Street and for justice to be done," said Diane Nygaard, a securities and investment fraud lawyer in Kansas City, Missouri, who has represented a number of Belfort's victims."I was appalled at DiCaprio because he clearly doesn't have a clue as to the heartache this con man cost so many hard-working Americans … I wouldn't trust him for an inch. I think the film should be called 'My Adventures with other People's Money' because that's what it boils down to. You can steal more money with a pen than you can a gun."
