You know guys like Costello, Catena, Salerno, Profaci, these guys left huge fortunes. It's weird to think a guy like Philly Lucky died richer than a Meyer Lansky. How is that even possible? Really?
On paper, Meyer Lansky was worth almost nothing. Most of his money was kept in other peoples names. I know for a fact he transferred $15 million to his brother's account in the early seventies. That's $93 million in today's money and that's just one guy. Their were others and one of them remains one of the richest Jews in Miami. He was way richer than Philly Lucky.
