Donnie stays by his word and goes to a payphone with Jordan, to call his former supervisor to quit his job, saying, 'Hey Paulie, what's up? No everything is fine, hey listen, I quit!'ĭonnie soon becomes friends with Jordan, as they begin to hang out more. Impressed, Donnie says that if Jordan is not fooling around about this, he will quit his job and work under Jordan, or as Donnie put it: 'Show me a pay stub for $72,000 and I will quit my job right now and work for you.' Jordan chuckles and produces a pay stub to show he is not fibbing. Donnie wonders what kind of career here offers such a princely income, and Jordan answers he has been brokering pink sheet penny stocks, which are high risk but offer a high rate of return on sales, in essence the stock market's counterpart to junk bonds. Donnie further questions Jordan on what his salary is, to which Jordan slyly says barely under seventy-two grand. He also reveals to Jordan that he actually is one of his neighbors, living in the same building, the difference being that he is on the fourth floor while Jordan is on the twelfth. He asks what his profession is, which is being a stock broker, and replies that he coincidentally works at a company known as Jordan's Furniture. After brief pleasantries, Donnie admires a late-model Jaguar in the driveway's parking lot and asks if Jordan is the owner, to which Jordan replies in the affirmative. In 1987, Donnie Azoff was at a diner where he introduced himself to Jordan Belfort, who was also having breakfast there.
