Are they really still the wealthiest and most powerful family? There was a pic of Barney on another site where he's walking down the street holding a pizza with his son. He doesn't really look like the king of an empire but then again he might just be that good at hiding it. I wonder if the dude really doesn't have that much money and that there's just some urban myth that the Genovese are the last of the big NY mob families. Again, I'm speculating. He could be worth millions. I enjoy the discussion about this intriguing family in particular.


"...the successful annihilation of organized crime's subculture in America would rock the 'legitimate' world's foundation, which would ultimately force fundamental social changes and redistributions of wealth and power in this country. Meyer Lansky's dream was to bond the two worlds together so that one could not survive without the other." - Dan E. Moldea
