Or how about Francesco Del Baso, who claimed to be a poor grocery store clerk yet was somehow able to gamble away $8 million at casinos. Just because people look broke, and no one's ever found a pile of money, doesn't mean they are. I remember watching an American Justice episode on Youngstown Mafia figure Lenny Strollo, where a law enforcement agent said something like, "These people don't have any money, they may look like they have money, but they don't have any money." Yet I later discovered that due to his cooperation agreement Strollo was allowed to keep his big house and $10 million in cash. So much for pretending you know how much money underworld figures have or don't have.


In some cases yes.
And for those either they were broke or want to look broke.

In some cases they accumulated large swaths of real estate that have been passed on to their children.

I.E. would be tje Todaro’s and their wing places, they also own strip clubs and whatever else.

Look at Jr. Gotti had to spent many millions on his 4 trials
2MM each maybe.

Still hasn’t worked a day since he left prison.
Still lives in a mansion and has real estate.

Wonder what his real estate is worth.

Just one example.

The Castalleno family they own western beef and scara mix, they recently sold the White House I think.

How many millions do they have?

Would be interesting to find that out.

Something a little different than the norm stories that you read about.

What about Detroit or the Weat Side what legit businesses do they own?
