The reason mafia leaders are really afraid of is not money but their power and influence. https://www.google.co.kr/amp/s/www.businessinsider.co This was your first post & The Site you referenced is an unsecured Site that has nothing on it which tells me what you said sounds like the usual big bullshit exaggeration about these guys. You have no idea how many other people were involved with what he supposedly owned and when he died, I guarantee you, all those partners took it over. The big huge exaggeration usually turns out to be about 5% to 10% of what is stated.

Backs up what Massino was saying about only receiving tribute from some of his captains. - Vitale says that a family leadership position doesn't automatically receive money. He says most of the money family leaders make is through their own operations and businesses (legal and illegal) and that they only occasionally receive a cut from scores that gets kicked up. He says "it's not all trumped up" like outsiders would believe.

But still... By the time Massino was in boss mode, full swing, and pulling in that $1.8 - $2 MM / year - he really wasn't doing much at all. Hanging out at his restaurant, and meeting guys under his own terms - making them come to him - to pass orders and settle disputes. I know he risked a lot and put in work to get to that point, but $2MM/year clean, untaxed, for almost doing nothing isn't bad. Even if he was taking and making less money, Massino put himself in position to have his day to day be a lot easier than the bosses who came before him (from what it sounds like)
