So its 2023, and in todays day and age of the mob, if you were to say offer $50,000 to get a button do you think a button could be bought?

With websites, podcasts and everything, imagine how many guys who are mob enthusiasts would actually pay for one if it was offered. They would go through the entire making ceremony, be taken out for dinner with drinks and receive the total package. Then for the rest of their lives they can say they are a made guy and In my opinion its a no brainer if someone was willing to pay for it. You could have these take place in a city like Vegas which would even be more appealing to whomever was realistically able to afford it.

Maybe this could be a brand new racket for the mob, and its perfectly legal. You make 5 guys a week or even a month, thats $250,000 dollars minimum. This thing has the potential to bring in tens of millions per year and there is no risk of prison or getting fined over it.

Thoughts?
