I really like this website. Very informative and I hope to help out the best I can. To answer you're question botz. To join the Mob, your father must be Italian. Most of them have to be able to understand and work the streets, where all of the cash is earned. High leveled members are usually the first to be aware of the money earners on the street. You are also asked by the criminal underworld to precede and join.
Supposedly, in New York at least, the rule was changed back to 100% Italian around the late 1990's/early 2000's. But I think well-connected guys, who are only partial Italian, still get in.
