The Mexican bosses have mansions and estates all over the place protected by private armies. Airplanes a fleet of Toyotas, Landcruisers etc.. Then explain why the boss in Colombia was found living in a man made hut with dirt floors? He had been there for years. If the authorities are very serious about getting a boss he has to flee or lay low but most live a luxurious lifestyle.

Most famous was Pablo's estate Hacienda Nápoles
(Spanish for "Naples Estate") was the luxurious estate built and owned by Colombian drug lord Pablo Escobar in Puerto Triunfo, Antioquia Department, Colombia, approximately 150 km (93 mi) east of Medellín and 249 km (155 mi) northwest of Bogotá. The estate covers about 20 km2 (7.7 sq mi) of land. Following Escobar's death in 1993, many of the original buildings on the property were demolished or reconditioned for other uses.
The estate included a Spanish colonial house, a sculpture park, and a complete zoo that included many kinds of animals from different continents such as antelope, elephants, exotic birds, giraffes, hippopotamuses, ostriches, and ponies. The ranch also boasted a large collection of old and luxury cars and bikes, a private airport, a brothel, and even a Formula 1-racing track. Mounted atop the hacienda's entrance gate is a replica of the Piper PA-18 Super Cub airplane (tail number HK-617-P).[1]

I've noticed that the life these guys live it's not very glamorous. Most end up living in Huts in the jungle with snakes and spiders and God knows what else.
Why then is it worth it to become a cartel boss? Living out your days like this? You mean "most powerful crime bosses in general"? Simple answer: Their hunters are more powerful.
