Nahh this is def a myth. If your bringing in alot of money to the family, that should be good enough to get made. Michael Franzes springs to mind (his pops rep didnt hurt). He was making a rediculous amount of money for the Colombos and according to him, he has never killed anyone. In fact he even turned down a contract given to him from his boss, I think Dabell (acting for snake at the time) to clip Larry Champagne for banging M. Franzeses sister (Sonny's daughter) , a Im sure there are other examples, that one just comes to mind. Im sure it varies from family to family also. Please correct me if im wrong. Hope that was helpful!
