Gravano was not kicking up 75% of what he made.


Maybe not. If you read the NYT article that's pretty much what it says though, at least from the kickbacks. Not from the juice, apparently.

Anyway, it was in all likelihood less than a million a year, and potentially less than half. For being in it 30 years, the number two Gambino and killing 19 people, in a much stronger era.

Everyone can have their own opinion on what that suggests a Chicago or Detroit "associate" is pulling in these days; I know what mine is.
