What makes the world go round? Money. If money is not flowing, if businesses don’t keep going, there’s no innovation, no products, no investments, no growth, no jobs.

Irving Easton Belfort, "The Prince", is a flamboyant yet calculating American business tycoon who has made Eden City, New Zealand his latest playground of ambition. Tired of battling with other billionaires over the "scraps" of the United States, his hungry gaze shifted over to Eden City, a fresh and lovely pie begging to have his finger stuck in it.

By 2017, Belfort’s deposits were nearing $1.5 billion, the culmination of countless schemes fine-tuned to extract maximum profit. Over the next six years, his aggressive investments and relentless pursuit of high-stakes opportunities grew his fortune to an estimated $3.5 to $4 billion by 2023. With this immense wealth, Belfort expanded his influence globally, leaving a wake of financial ruin for the vulnerable while solidifying his legacy as one of the most polarizing and powerful figures in modern finance.

History

Vice City

Belfort moved from Las Venturas to Vice City in June 2017, where he purchased a portion of an office tower on Brettle Lock, a man-made island off the mainland Brettle neighborhood of Vice City, and transformed it into his new base of operations. He invited local brokers to join his exchange syndicate, "The New Wizards", creating a space where they could brainstorm cunning strategies to maximize stock values. One of their methods involved hiring disposable crooks to sabotage rival companies' public images, effectively throwing off their competition and reaping the benefits. Around the same time, Belfort began drafting his autobiography as a subtle and creative way to flaunt his achievements.

Belfort himself fell into a long-con devised by Thomas Kingston, Maria Vinogradova, and Cesar Álvarez. They exploited either his intention to establish his own boiler room scheme in Vice City, or his autobiography dream, in which they promised to attatch it with a "Liberty Tree Best Seller" status. Although only half a million was lost, less than 1% of Belfort's net worth, he lost the respect of his colleagues. The short-lived New Wizards clique was disbanded.

Embittered by the experience, Belfort spent three weeks learning the art of confidence tricks to formulate a revenge con on Thomas, Maria, and Cesar. He was joined by three fellow victims Walid, Ruben Kocharyan, and Wyatt Duggan. His scheme was to plant his friend, Serena van der Bijl, as a fake mark that would drain every penny from the trio's pocket. The seemingly perfect plan, however, failed miserably after Wyatt turned against Belfort by siding with the grifters. Now losing an additional $650,000, Belfort stopped pursuing the trio and reportedly fled Vice City shortly after.
