Franzese made millions of dollars a week. I would think he would have to be the biggest earner the American mafia has ever had. Of course we don’t know because we don’t have much info on some of the biggest earners and just how much they were making. But I find it hard to believe anyone else in the american mafia made money like that unless they were heavily involved in drug trafficking. It’s more impressive when someone finds a scheme like the gas scams and they make more money with that than pushing drugs.
