Absolutely. Joe LaForte Sr. was a very wealthy guy, both in the rackets and in business. He owned multimillion dollar properties Downtown NY, on S.I., collected rents, etc.

But as the old sayings go, "old habits are sometimes hard to break" and, "the fruit doesn't fall far from the tree." Lol. Maybe there's some truth to that happening here. In a different, but not unsimilar way.
