For this next post, I need some opinions. Like really. I'm almost all out of ideas for posts, so leave whatever thoughts you have in the comments. Without YOU, I won't be able to continue posting, so leave tons of comments.
Besides that, I'm a week late on this post and I'm going to have to do number 7 over the weekend. Any, today I will talk about how The Wolf of Wallstreet is relatable to today. One way that it is that in the story, the owner of the company Stratton-Oakmont, Jordan Belfort, does some really stupid things (like shooting at mailmen while high out of his mind) and is enabled by his money. Similarly today, we see famous people doing really stupid things, and they can get away with it because people have some kind of respect for their influence or wealth.
Another way that The Wolf of Wallstreet is related to today is that it isn't that far back in time. The plot takes place from 1986 to 1998. Over this time period, we see new technology and business technological advances, kind of like what we see today. Also, this shows that the plot of the story is relatively recent, only being 28 years old at most.
