Remembering the past days, he said in an interview,

"I started writing and didn't leave the house. My only human contact was with my children and my ex-wife. She wasn't vindictive at all [unlike her portrayal in the movie]. At the time [of the split] I thought she was the worst person in the world. But now we can look back with perspective."

"It took me about 11 months [to finish the book], seven days a week, 15 hours a day -- my whole life I've been an unbelievable insomniac, and I sleep maybe three or four hours a night. When I got a solid 125 pages, Random House snapped up the book for $500,000 upfront."

The movie grossed $275.1 million worldwide. Belfort is now engaged to Anne Koppe.
