In mafia,do made members hide from each other potential scores?I mean not hide,but do they spread that news through the whole crew or just with captains?Can he call someone from crew,or does whole crew needs to go for the score?

They would only spread the score if more then one guy is needed.

After Lufthansa, I bet more mobsters distrust each other.

Technically, a made guy is supposed to report all scores to his captain, since he's under obligation to be kicking up from those scores. Of course, it's always said that the soldier is holding back from the captain, and the captain is holding back from the boss.

Personally, I think Michael Franzese had the right idea. He said he actually would kick up more than he should, because it would help his status in the family as an earner. But obviously that was easy for him to do when he was pulling in millions from the gas tax scam.

Are you talking about the Rudy Izzi murder? There were rumors that's why he was killed; that he was holding back. Don't know if that was ultimately true or not.

Do they still have to cough up from a failed score?

The mob is dependently gravitated solely on cold hard cash and inducted soldiers or 'made' members are often given a figure that is roughly expected of them to earn by their superiors (acting/official captain) each week/two weeks.

Once the 'made' men have been told what is expected of them they shouldn't ever have to be told again and should independantly go out and earn their weekly take.

The earning rate at what cut/percentage a captain can demand from his soldiers 'kick-up' is not set in stone, with personification being a factor of how much the captains pay their guys and how much the 'made' men hold back to have enough to eat for themselves, the statistics can differ.

For example, if a captain is running his crew and taking 50% of earnings from each guy involved with the crew. There would be an estimated figure expected from each soldier or 'made' member in order with which racket he/they ran. Usually the larger and more financially rewarding the racket is, the more the captain expects each kick-up. So a gax tax scheme would require a larger paycheck then your average street skim.

I wouldn't think so. If there's no money earned, there's nothing to kick up the ladder. You're captain may be a little irritated though since he was expecting an envelope. whistle

Yes. You saw an example of that in "Sopranos": Just after Chris was made, his boss, Paulie, assigned him a "nut" to come up with every week, and threatened to tack on standard vig if he didn't make it. Presumably, everything Chris or any other made guy earned over and above his nut was his. But if he had any sense, he'd kick some of the extra up to his boss to stay on his good side.
