Well NY you are right as far as the author and his statements.But your question was which of the two were more succeassful.i dont believe it is even close as far as terms of money.There was not one boss in any family anywhere in this country that had Marcello's money.Not Profaci,Costello,Marcello was a very rich man a multi billion dollar man and alot more successful than Trafficante.I liked this question as well it good question
