Continuity mistake: During Mark and Jordan's meal, the second time they do the chest thumping ritual, in the side angles Leo Di Caprio can't help sneer and tries hard not to burst out laughing. In the front shot he is suddenly very serious. This swaps back and forth between shots. This was due to the fact that the scene was improvised, as Matthew McConaughey once told: https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/news/matthew-mcconaughey-interview-gold-wolf-of-wall-street-lunch-scene-chest-thumping-tune-film-a7557551.html.

Continuity mistake: In the yacht scene with the FBI guys, the yacht is alternately docked to its port side with the stern towards open water and with the stern against the dock. When the agents approach the boat, they come from the left side and there is no dock at the stern. When they leave and Jordan throws them bills, they go around the boat's stern via a dock that wasn't there in the first shot.

Other mistake: Story inconsistency, at the start of the film in the Ferrari scene, Jordan says he made 49 million aged 26 as the head of his own brokerage firm. The newspaper article by Forbes states Jordan filed for personal bankruptcy aged 26 and that Jordan is currently 29 and that Stratton Oakmont is 2 years old, making Jordan at least 27 in the scenes when they are still operating from the garage.

Donnie Azoff: You have my money taped to your tits. Technically you do work for me.

Trivia: It was Margot Robbie's idea to appear nude in the doorway. She was scripted to be wearing a slinky robe, but Robbie felt that her character would not wear a robe, reasoning that her character's body was her "form of currency" and that she'd exploit that to "lay her cards on the table."
