There are made men who would make much more if they worked legit jobs. That is a fact.

Sure when you hit CAPO you are pretty much set for life financially. But when you are just a soldier trying to earn, its not some fucking guarantee you will be a rich man. Many live in very modest apartments and have to hustle on the side such as dealing drugs to make a living which is risky. Plus with all the rackets now becoming legalized, why the fuck would anyone really want to be in the mob anyway? I can become a bookie and never ever have to worry about going to jail or prison if its legit.
