The Wolf of Wall Street (movie) Now this is a different story… I’m guessing you remember my review of the book The Wolf of Wall Street. A perfectly solid book, quite educational in many ways. Now the question is: can the film be better than the book? My answer is — yes. In this case,…

New authors constantly appear writing books on how to improve your life……
