The "Yuppie Don", really? He doesn't even rate this thread, tell me when he made his bones? The only reason he was made was because his old man was locked up and Franzese quit school to help support his family.
He never killed anyone...If it wasn’t for his dad he wouldn’t even have been a member..The only reason the gas scam fell into his lap is the Russians reached out to his father for help with protection and licensing for the gas stations but because Sonny was on Parole he passed the deal to Michael...
Guys had to kill over and over for sometimes decades to get made...All Michael had to do to get made was drive Tommy Dibella around ,show up for meetings on time and partner with Mush Russo in deals that his father gave him and his “apprenticeship” lasted a whole fucking year(what a fucking joke)without his father he would have been the mobs piece of cheese to feed off of and cut up anyway they wanted!
