elcome to the summer issue of Luxe Life Magazine, which celebrates all that we love about the best Fashion, Watches and Travel, in cities across Europe.

2

In this issue, we share with you our favourite buys, our best recommendations and exciting experiences.

The world of Fashion is going through many changes this year.

Top designers are moving and joining new brands, which means exciting times lie ahead. The designs and colours of Mary Katrantzou’s new collection will brighten up your autumn and winter wardrobe as will the soft fabrics and timeless classics of Brunello Cucinelli and Louis Vuitton add that touch of luxe to your look. Our Chinese journalist Ting Yan met up with Jordan Belfort, the “Wolf of Wall Street”, in Singapore. Maria Bravo talks to us about how she and Eva Longoria manage Global Gift Gala, a philantropic organisation that operates worldwide to raise awareness and funding for those less fortunate.

These are some of our suggestions; run in the Authentic Athens Marathon, visit the Prado Museum in Madrid before the crowds arrive and join in a Medieval Festival in Rhodes.

All of which means, I hope, you will discover and enjoy as we’ve had in the voyage of its creation.

Покупки в Афинах Возможно, лучшую вещь в старейшем городе Европы вы найдете именно в Афинах. Тем более, что почти все торговые точки находятся в пешеходной зоне и в нескольких минутах ходьбы друг от друга. На большинстве улиц в центре Афин запрещено автомобильное движение, и много улиц в центре Афинах являются пешеходными. Главная торговая улица Афинулица Ermou Street находится недалеко от площади Syntagma Square. Именно здесь и следует начать начать свой шопинг. В этой зоне есть прекрасные кафе и места для отдыха. На главной торговой улице вы найдете известные имена брендов, таких как Sephora, Hondos Центра и знаков Marks & Spencer. Прогуливаясь, вы увидите Folli Follie, где вы можете купить модные часы, ювелирные изделия Bijoux, шали, кожаные сумки и аксессуары. Улицы, ведущие от улицы Ermou Street, интересны торговыми точками по продаже пресноводного жемчуга, сыпучих полудрагоценных камней и, все это по низким ценам. Роскошные бренды вы найдете в

Antonio Berardi

Афинах в квартале Kolonaki quarter, недалеко от Национального сада, площадью 15,5га. Улицы Tsakalof и Voukourestiou являются одними из самых престижных торговых организаций Афин “, и именно здесь вы найдете высококачественную продукцию от Gucci, Dior, Zadig & Voltaire и Ralph Lauren. Есть смысл пройтись по магазинам и на

улицах Solonos и Academias. Если вам нужны ювелирные изделия, то на улице Voukourestiou можно найти золотые и серебряные изысканные изделия ручной работы местных мастеров. В районе Kolonaki вы найдете Linea Piu, роскошный мультибрендовый магазин и единственный дистрибьютор Шанель в Греции. Только за

Покупки в Thessaloniki Thessaloniki- второй по величине город в Греции, столица греческой Македонии, который является одним из ведущих торговых мест в стране. Как и Афины, в нем представлен широкий спектр торговых центров в нескольких минутах ходьбы от традиционного рынка. Здесь можно найти продукцию местных дизайнеров моды и самых современных мировых брендов. Любителям товаров класса люкс нужно пройти через центр города вниз к Эгейскому морю. Можно с уверенностью сказать, что ближе к набережной располагаются торговые улицы самых эксклюзивных брендов. Улица Koromila является одной из тех, что ближе и расположена параллельно морю. Этоместорасположение престижных брендов, таких как Armani, Max Mara и Dil. Здесь в ассортименте вы найдете шикарные кафе, и вы можете пообщаться с некоторыми из самых крутых местных жителей. Соседняя Mitropoleos предлагает более высокого класса имена, но также и некоторые менее известные бутики. Немного дальше вглубь - основные торговые городские улицы Tsimiski и Egnatia. Там вы найдете

несколько многоэтажных универмагов, в том числе и Notos Halleries. Другой популярный торговый центр - огромный комплекс Mediterranean Cosmos, крупнейший торговый центр в Северной Греции, который находится на восточной окраине города, куда легко можно добраться на машине или такси. Это- 200 розничных строений, 11-ти зальный мультиплекс кинотеатр, рестораны и даже церковь, есть также брендовые магазины, такие как Lacoste, Folli Follie, Gant и Intersport.

мельницами, и одновременно являющийся одним из самых известных туристических направлений. Клубы, бары и пляжи острова были все заполнены в течение многих десятилетий туристами. Санторини- просто остров, который невероятным образом расцветает во время заката. Белые, красные и черные песочные пляжи, гармонирующие с традиционным стилем домов, балконы с видом на вулкан и оживленной ночной жизнью- все это не оставит вас равнодушными. Останки древности и миф о погибшей Атлантиде оправдают слова, и заставят туристов влюбиться в этот замечательный остров. Активный вулкан Санторини взорвался в 50-х и разрушил многие города острова. Санторини называют также Тира и его столица - город Фира. Пары со всего мира приезжают в Санторини, чтобы жениться в свете уникальных огней острова.

TAX Free Shopping в греческих островах не может быть лучше; Магазины расположены удобно- близко друг к другу, и вы можете найти все что нужно среди сотен магазинов и бутиков.

s a major city, Madrid has it all. The famous Grand Vía, which stretches from Calle de Alcalá to the Plaza de España and the streets that surround the main road, including the pedestrianised Fuencarral, which leads to the Fuencarral shopping centre, and Corredera Baja, are a veritable smörgåsbord of desirable high street and youth brands – this area is also known as Triball.

The other major district is the upmarket Salamanca. The grid of streets here offers a wealth of international and local couture. If you are staying at the ultimate luxury hotel in Madrid, the hotel Villa Magna you step out directly on to Serrano where you’ll find El Corte Inglés department store, Louis Vuitton, Ermenegildo Zegna and Roberto Verino for men plus Saint Laurent, Gucci; on José Ortega y Gasset, Bottega Veneta, Roberto Cavalli and Chanel; on Claudio Coello, Agent Provocateur, Zadig & Voltaire, Angel Schlesser and Plein Sud should please men and women; Lagasca offers hot Spanish label Victorio & Lucchino and Escada and Goya offers Pilar Burgos and Pretty Ballerinas plus much more.

In Barcelona each district has its own character and shops to match, but undeniably your first destination should be the Passeig de Gràcia, which cuts through the heart of Barcelona, running from Plaza de Catalunya to just beyond Avenue Diagonal and passes Gaudi’s exquisite La Pedrera.

Head for high fashion shops like Stella McCartney, Bottega

Veneta, Saint Laurent or Santa Eulalia, Barcelona’s oldest design house and a specialist in the city ‘classy with a twist’ style of the city. Or perhaps pick up a Lupo handbag, still made in Barcelona.

There’s local footwear heroes Coronel Tapiocca and Camper on Avenida Diagonal, now a worldwide export, just like Adolfo Dominguez and Mango (it’s world flagship is in Barcelona).

As for cool international stores coming in, Bang & Olufsen, Comptoir des Cottoniers, Intropia, Swarovski, Wolford, Adidas and Puma… the list goes on.

Don’t forget to visit Vinçon, the absolute sine qua non of design stores in this design-led city. Beyond Garcia, the BornRibera area of Ciutat Vella district has a wealth of crafts shops, studios for up-and coming artists and designers and much more.

Look out too for department stores like FNAC, plus, just outside Barcelona you’ll find La Roca outlet village with brands like Armani, Andrea Morelli, Tag Heuer, Calvin Klein, Clarks, Gant and Hour Passion.

Всем хорошо известно, что благодаря битве при Марафоне родился забег на марафонскую дистанцию

С

огласно легенде, греческий воин после битвы при Марафоне пробежал не останавливаясь от Марафона до Афин, чтобы возвестить о победе греков. Добежав до Афин, он успел крикнуть: «Радуйтесь, афиняне, мы победили!» и упал замертво. Именно эта красивая история послужила идеей включить марафонский бег в программу Олимпийских игр в Афинах в 1896 году. Athens Marathon предлагает уникальный опыт для каждого из участников. Так, в ходе первых современных Олимпийских игр в 1896 году в Афинах, а так же и в 2004 году на Олимпийских играх в тех же Афинах, дистанция пролегала по историческому маршруту.

Marathon Race начинается в 09:00 от Marathon Start. Первые 4 километра дистанция идёт под уклон и бегуны двигаются по Marathonos авеню, затем поворачивают направо и через 2.2 км выбегают на круг, в центре которого расположен военный мемориал в память о погибших в битве при Marathon (Марафон Tomb). Далее дистанция ровная, а с 11го по 17-й км на отдельных участках идёт в гору и минуя Рафина Junction подходит к сложному участку на 20-м км. Миновав района Pikermi и 28 км, Последняя и самая сложная часть маршрута начинается от Геракаса и идет до Агия Параскеви (30 - 31stkm). Затем бегуны следуют по Mesogeion авеню, после чего начинается спуск до финиша. По курсу остаются Athens Music Hall, парк

Свободы, недавно построенный мост Katehaki, военный музей, музей кикладского искусства, президентский ординатурий. Зрители и спортивные болельщики располагаются по всей дистанции и бурно приветствуют участников ветвями оливково дерева и подбадривающими возгласами. К финишной ленточке ведёт исторический стадион Panathinaikon, отделанный мрамором и наполненный 20 тыс зрителей. Все ликуют. Регистрации на участие в соревновании открывается за 2 месяца и продолжается до набора 16500 бегунов. Зарегистрироваться можно на сайте (www.athensauthenticmarathon.gr) и оплатить регистрационной взнос кредитной картой или банковским переводом. Все участники получают письменное подтверждение. С 2007 года церемония открытия Афинского марафона проводиться в месте археологических раскопок Marathon, демонстрируя уникальность этого события. Церемония открытия сопровождается зажжением Марафонского огня, который является символ движения Marathon. Огонь горит в течение года в музее марафонской гонки в городе Marathonas. Сейчас огонь Marathon так же горит в Бостоне (США), Белграде (Сербия), Генуе (Италия), Шанхайе и Сямэнь (Китай), Вене (Австрия), Мумбаи (Индия), Праге (Чехия), Омске (Россия).

The BATTLE of MARATHON, the inspiration of the birth of the Marathon race

T

he Marathon Race itself was born by the legend of a Greek soldier-messenger who ran from Marathonas to Athens carrying the precious message of victory. It is said that he ran the entire distance without stopping and burst into the assembly, exclaiming “Nenikékamen” (“Rejoice: We have won”) before collapsing and dying. It was this legend that led to the Marathon race, as it is known today, introduced during the 1896 Athens Olympic Games.

Athens Marathon offers a unique experience to each individual participant. It is organized on the historical Olympic Marathon Course of the 1st Modern Olympic Games in 1896 and of the 2004 Athens Olympic Games.

The Marathon Race starts at 09.00am from the Marathon Start Venue at Marathonas. The first 4 kilometers are rather downhill. The runners run along the Marathonos Avenue up to

the 4th km, when they turn right and enter the Marathon Tomb, which they follow for the next 2.2km.

The course follows a rather circular route around the War Memorial for those that died during the Marathon Battle (Marathon Tomb), while it becomes flat from the 6th to the 10th km. From the 11th to the 17th km the course goes uphill at certain parts.

Starting from the Rafina Junction, the course goes uphill again, while the most difficult part is until the 20thkm. As the runners pass along the district of Pikermi, they run through some, more or less, uphill parts of the course up to the 28thkm.

The last and most difficult part of the course starts from Gerakas and goes up to Agia Paraskevi (30th – 31stkm). Then, the runners follow the Mesogeion Avenue, meeting flat and downhill parts of the course up

to the finish. Highlights of the course are also the Athens Music Hall, the Liberty Park, the recently constructed Katehaki Bridge, the War Museum, the Museum of Cycladic Art, the Presidential Residency.

Since 2007, the Opening Ceremony of the Athens Marathon is organized in the archeological site of the Marathon Tomb, showcasing the uniqueness of this event. The opening ceremony leads to the Lighting of the Marathon Flame, a universal symbol of the Marathon movement.

The Flame remains lighten throughout the year in the Marathon Race Museum in the City of Marathonas.

The Marathon Flame has already been hosted by Boston (USA), Belgrade (Serbia), Genova (Italy), Shanghai and Xiamen (China), Vienna (Austria), Mumbai (India), Prague (Czech Republic), Omsk (Russia).

Global Gift is a synergy of likeminded people who believe that we can make a change in this world whether big or small. Using this network of what we like to call Global Gifters, fiscally responsible business´s, celebrities and a plethora of foundations and charities join together for a common cause. And of course Global Gift is my life!

LL: What do you expect from the Celebrities you invite to Global Gift?

Each and every celebrity supports us in different ways. They are aware of our cause and contribute however they can, be it directly or performing at our galas for example.

In any case we try not to have expectations so we are always pleasantly surprised!

LL: How much money did you raise?

We have donated over 2 million euro to third party organizations plus what we have assigned to our project, Casa Global Gift.

LL: How do you evaluate which project to support?

We research each project in depth before deciding. For me personally any foundation that is focused on helping women and children deserves to be supported, but of course we have to focus on those projects that particularly inspire us, and this is usually down to the enthusiasm and drive of the people running and directing those foundations and charities.

LL: How important is the international community for fund raising?

It is very important as we are fortunate enough to have supporters around the world. We also benefit

local foundations at each event, ensuring that the funds raised in each territory are going back to help the local community.

LL: After Cannes, Dubai, London, Madrid, Marbella, Mexico and Paris, will we see a Global Gift in China?

We would love to bring Global Gift Gala to China – we are always expanding so who knows? Maybe in 2017! We are very excited as this year we have added Madrid, Edinburgh and Punta Cana to our long list of event destinations.

LL: What is your idea of perfect happiness?

Having my loved ones and family near me. Also when I´m able to see the direct results of those that we have been able to help around the world.

LL: Your biggest fear?

I´m not too keen on flying!

LL: Your greatest extravagance?

I love cake!

LL: Your favourite holiday?

A beach, good food and the people I love around me.

LL: What is the trait you least like about yourself?

I trust people very quickly which can be a good thing but some-times you can get hurt.

LL: What about the others?

I like positivity! I try to avoid negative people.

LL: The most overrated virtue?

Beauty LL: What words or phrases do you use too often?

Global Gifter!

LL: What is your biggest regret?

I try to move forward in my life and not focus on regrets.

LL: What or who is the greatest love of your life?

My mother LL: When and where were you happiest?

I have been fortunate to have lived many happy moments in different times of my life, but I would say that I love being in my hometown Marbella – that always makes me happy.

LL: What talent would have like to have?

Speak many languages.

LL: What is your current state of mind?

With the upcoming gala on the 17th July in Marbella I would say I am in a busy state of mind! There are always so many things to do and to think of when organizing an event,

LUXE LIFE SOCIETY 69

LL: What do you consider to be your greatest achievement?

Building Global Gift Foundation to what it represents today and knowing how many people and organizations we help around the world. I am also very excited to be opening Casa Global Gift in my hometown Marbella.

Casa Global Gift is a multifunctional space that will house 5 local associations and charities.

There will be therapy & treatment rooms as well as physio-therapy areas – a special place for those that need it the most.

LL: Which living person do you most admire Eva Longoria, for always having the time to be there for those in need. For being smart, talented and funny as well as such a great friend. And of course for being the philanthropist that she is.

LL: What is your motto?

Life is short so make the most of it and smile!

LL: Your greatest asset?

I´m a good listener LL Your favorite occupation?

I actually enjoy working (most of the time!) and I love anything to do with décor. I also enjoy baking cakes!

LL: What do you value most in your friends?

Loyalty LL: Who are your heroes in real life?

Those people that are behind the scenes. The ones that nobody sees, working every day in the hundreds of ONG´s and foundations helping the poor, sick and underprivileged. They are the real heroes.

INTERVIEW

专访“华尔街之 狼”乔丹•贝尔福特 文/严婷

华尔街见闻副总编辑

严婷 电影 华尔街之狼 热映 许 多人通过莱昂纳多•迪卡普里奥的表 演看到你的生活经历 你现在也有了 许多中国粉丝 老实说 你第一次看 到这部电影时感觉如何 这部电影你 一共看了多少次 乔丹•贝尔福特 当我第一次去看这 部电影时 我受到了很大触动 电影 很棒 我非常喜欢 但是里面提到的 有些事 我可从来都没做过 比如 说 我们不会去买那些毫无前景 一 塌糊涂的公司股票 那不是我们的作 风 我做得更多的是风险投资 买入 的公司大多是具有发展前景的公司 这些公司有的表现出色 有的因为虚 报误报而表现不佳 只有这一点让我 觉得有些心烦 里昂那多的表演很出 色 他把握住了券商和训练的本质 我特别喜欢他的表演 我看过这部电 影的预告片 又跟着妻子和孩子去看 了正片 这部电影我一共看了五次 每次我都很喜欢 严婷 你曾说这部电影应该被当作一 个警示故事来看 那你最希望人们 在看过这部电影后得到什么样的警示 呢 乔丹•贝尔福特 我觉得最关键的一 点是 人们应该记住 在这部电影 中 你看到的并不是一个完整的我 你在电影里看到 最终我锒铛入狱

72

失去了一切 但我最终悔过自新并东 山再起的事实 显示了一个人可以将 自己从失败和错误中解救出来 而且 变得更为强大 很重要的一点是 人 们必须意识到 电影中那些看起来很 好玩的销售培训 积极和干劲 企业 家精神 这些都是可以学习借鉴的 但是 千万不要像我一样越过自己的 道德底线 那是毁掉了我的生活的罪 魁祸首 你可以笑我做过的这些事 但不要重走我的老路 如果我之前不 曾偏离航向 我现在可能已经坐拥数 十亿美金了 而不是像现在这样从头 再来 即使我和过去同样出色也于事 无补 不要重蹈我的覆辙 严婷 你会不会担心这部电影会让人 们对你的记忆停留在原来的那个乔 丹•贝尔福特 而非现在这个改头换 面的你 乔丹•贝尔福特 是的 所有人在生 活旅途中都会犯错 我想 无论是教 人做交易 成为企业家还是激励他 人中 我们每个人都天赋各异 而 且 我觉得我应该接受那时的失败 并从中吸取教训 如果他们能在银幕 上展示我现在的生活 包括我如何周 游世界去帮助别人变得富裕 那自然 最好 但这样的电影就不会那么激动 人心 如果是我 我可不会拍这样一 部电影 电影中的人物只会做正确的 事 这种电影太无聊 充满说教 某 种程度上 人们会想看一些更为戏剧 化的故事 他们会希望我的新生活多 在电影里展现一些 因为那可能也很 有趣 或许可以拍一部前传或续集 毕竟电影还是遗漏了不少东西 在某种程度上 我的新生活的确很有 趣 不过 我现在的生活里没有毒品 交易这一项 我所做的每一件事都完

by Ting Yan

全符合道德标准 但我猜这没有电影 里我把游艇沉没的故事好看 严婷 你曾拥有了一切 却又失去了 一切 你会如何总结自己在华尔街的 这段生活 乔丹•贝尔福特 我认为我在华尔街 的那段生活是我一生中最好也是最坏 的时光 说是最好的时光是因为 在 这段时间中我白手起家 建立起自己 的商业帝国 变得富有 说是最坏 的时光 则是因为我偏离了航道 迷 失了自我 将自己得来的一切尽数失 去 最后还进了监狱 这是最好的时 光 又是最坏的时光 展现的是人性 中最好的一面 以及最坏的一面 严婷 如果你有机会能从头再来 你 会改变自己的人生轨迹吗 还是走上 旧路 乔丹•贝尔福特 我肯定会走一条不 同的路 这是毫无疑问的 我再也不 会做对我客户造成损失的事了 但 是 还是那句话 没人能倒转时间 从头再来 我们该做的只是吸取教 训 并通过这样的方式将自己变得更 为强大 这便是我已经在做的事 严婷 你因为证券欺诈和洗钱在铁窗 中度过了两年 是什么激发你想要写 这样一部自传呢 乔丹•贝尔福特 我写出这样一本 书 是受到了狱友的鼓励 我们对彼 此讲述了自己的故事 他听了我的经 历 说这经历很有意思 他给了我写 这本书的想法 而我接下来要做的只 是把自己的故事记录下来 严婷 你在狱中遇到的最有意思的事 情是什么

乔丹•贝尔福特 我觉得最有意思的 是 我以犯人身份去坐飞机 事实 上 我需要坐飞机横跨整个国家 到 亚特兰大的法庭去受审 最后像电影 里那样被判有罪 判决之后 我被关 押起来 戴着手铐跟在其他人身后 真的是太疯狂了 我记得那天很热 至少有100华氏度 牢狱里有八个 人 整个屋子一股汗味 我不知道自 己是在那里呆了一天还是一个月 那 是我这辈子遇到的最疯狂的事 严婷 现在你一切从头开始 成功转 型为一位作家兼励志演讲家 你觉得 什么改变了 什么没有变 乔丹•贝尔福特 我现在最大的改变 是 我的重点是创造价值 我不会再 问自己 怎样才能赚更多的钱 我只 会问自己 我该怎么帮助他人获得更 多价值 我所做的事情是 我利用自 己培训别人成为企业家的惊人能力 并通过这种方式赚钱 至于说我的个 人生活嘛 我已经戒毒七年半了 现 在拥有相互忠诚的夫妻关系 我觉得 这也算一个改变吧

LUXE LIFE INTERVIEW 73

半 在我看来 政府的这个决定完全 是错误的 法官了解了我的判决结 果 之后在两周前的一份书面判决中 阐明 我不再需要支付自己收入的一 半来赔偿了 严婷 昔日华尔街的股票经纪人 今天的 全球励志演讲家 这两种生活 你更喜欢 哪种 乔丹•贝尔福特 其实我并不觉得自己是 一个励志演讲家 励志是温暖却又效果微 小的东西——它让你感觉很好 但是很难 真的帮到你 你可能需要每天都来上一点 才行 但是我做的不是这个 我做的是为 人们提供策略 帮助他们成功 我会帮助 人们成为高效的销售员和交流者 诸如 此类

严婷 大部分人都很难适应生活中的 如此巨大的变化 你是如何做到的 乔丹•贝尔福特 我改变不了生活中 那些注定不可避免的事情 除非你已 经准备好改变自己 不然其实没有什 么东西会一瞬间改变 对于我来说 我从过去的事情中得到了很多痛苦与 教训 因此 改变自己相对成为了一 件比较容易的事情 我知道自己要走 一条与过去完全不同的道路 而我也 确实踏上了那条道路 当我开始写书 时 我就开始改变了 我开始能够正 视自己的内心 而当我能做到这点 时 我已经踏上了这条与过去截然不 同的路 从这个角度说 我觉得自己 的改变还比较容易 严婷 你的释放证明上写明 你需要 支付总收入的一半进行赔偿 你现在 是否还需要付钱 乔丹•贝尔福特 不需要 两周前 判决结果出来了 政府一方败诉了 所以我不再需要这么做了 判决结果 你可以在法院的系统里查询 法官表 示我无需偿还 而这是官方的结果 前三年时 我确实需要支付工资的一

严婷 你说过“赚钱太容易了” 但 在大部分人看来并非如此 你认为关 键的差异在哪里 乔丹•贝尔福特 关键点在于 赚钱 最重要的技能就是说服他人 而我是 这方面的大师 我的生活就是最好的 证明 而且我有一套自己惯常使用的 套路 这个套路使用效果很好 而 且人人适用 我在全世界到处教授这 个套路 人们使用并取得了很好的效 果 对于这些学习了我使用过的套路 的人来说 赚钱不会是难事 严婷 你在矿产行业的投资收益不 错 例如铁矿石等 除此之外 你还 看好哪一领域 乔丹•贝尔福特 除仍然投资矿产资 源外 我现在还投资生物科技领域 但现在我主要是经营我自己的生意 我在努力建立一个“一条龙”式的学 院 一个线上和线下的大学 来帮助 人们在商务领域进阶 除了投资生物 科技和矿产资源领域外 其他领域我 只是旁观 而没有进行任何投资 严婷 你认为中国的经济前景如何 你是否考虑过在中国进行投资 乔丹•贝尔福特 我一直都相信“中 国奇迹” 事实上 如果有适当的机 会和人脉 我肯定会投资中国资产 但目前为止 我还没有发现 我很相 信一点 除了机会 人脉同样重要 我必需找到对的人 我相信 中国在 21世纪的后五十年里一定会成为全 球强国 而且10年后 中国就将超越 美国 但我认为美国仍然会拥有重要 地位 只是中国将举足轻重 再次重 申 我相信“中国奇迹”

严婷 对于那些刚刚进入金融业工作 的年轻人 你对他们有何建议 乔丹•贝尔福特 我的建议是要及时 行乐 同时也要守住自己的道德底 线 做一个正直的人 去学习如何说 服他人 并成为一个专家级的劝服者 和终结者 这也正是沃伦•巴菲特提 出的建议 我能给出的建议就是如 此 去努力销售 去说服他人 这是 我对金融领域的工作者所能给出的最 好的建议 保持道德底线 做正直的 人 要目光长远 严婷 在事业上 你将Gordan Gekko这个虚构的人物视为榜样 但在现实生活中 你最钦佩的人物是 谁 为什么 乔丹•贝尔福特 我很钦佩沃伦•巴菲 特 我钦佩他 因为他孜孜不倦地创

造价值 以及他初衷的表达能力 还 因为他的慈善精神 他没有被自己的 巨额财富冲昏头脑 直至今日 他依 旧过着朴素的生活 我努力让自己向 他靠拢 但我还是不能做到每时每刻 都像他一样 我非常尊敬巴菲特 他 应该是我现在努力学习 对我影响力 最大的人物了 严婷 对你而言 什么最重要 乔丹•贝尔福特 现在对我最重要的 是我的家人 我的孩子们 传播我的 理念对我来说也非常重要 我觉得能 够创造价值 并通过这种方式获得报 酬是很棒的事 我喜欢金钱 但我认 为金钱应该是为人们创造伟大价值的 结果 我认为现在最重要的事就是到 世界各地去传递这一理念
