To be broke is one thing and to make not so much money is another.
When the heroin epedemic was here in Sweden between 2000-2005 you had where i live the albanians making millions, i mean in dollars. Noone of them has money left because of their gambling addiction, and some drug/prostitute addiction. It doesnt matter if you make a mill a week if you are a gambler your are going to lose it all. Thats why i think these Cosa Nostra members makes more money than 5k a week but they dont have so much maybe cause they are gamblers many of them
