Do bosses get a percentage of any legitimate income that their underlings generate?
I remember in an episode of the sopranos Eugene gives Tony a piece of his money that he inherited from his late relative. Although its a tv show, this makes me wonder if captains and bosses get money from everything that their soldiers and associates make regardless if his mob-related or not
Thanks According to wire taps, Gotti Sr was pissed Gravano wasn't kicking up construction Money
Been there and done it I am very much for real, so if you ask, make sure you really want to know.

I would think that it depends on the origin of the legit income. For example,if a Soldier or Capo opens up a coffee shop on his own and doesn't use any Mob connections or money to operate,I don't think he is expected to kick a piece of the business up.
If he runs a gambling business or moves swag out of the basement,he will kick up a share of that type of activity.
When you have guys that own construction or trucking businesses for example,and they use their Mob ties to muscle the competition. or get an inside track on bidding,then they also will kick up a piece.
The bottom line seems to be that if the financing or operation of the business requires Mob assistance,then protocol would call for a proper tribute be made.
Guys like Mike Sabella,or Joe "Butch" Corrao,didn't kick up pieces of their restaurants,but they definitely gave a taste of their other activities to their Bosses.
