It depends on the time, the location, the people involved, but there are many examples how the mob was both. Most mafia members were not good earners.

Unrelated to the conversation but how do I view the mugshot section? I've seen a comment of soliali, saying you need 36 but I've over 60 yet I can't view it.

Re: General Mob Questions
Most made guys are far from rich, especially nowadays. Back before legalized gambling, state lotteries, and payday loan companies, there were far more opportunities to earn, but even then most members were middle class, at best.Mete wrote: ↑Fri Feb 12, 2021 12:47 pmReally?

Is Steven Frangipani a made guy or a close friend of Joey? I've seen tons of picture of him and Joey and I know they did a time together but still don't know if he's a made or not.

Re: General Mob Questions
I doubt any black gangster ever had more power than Italians. Italians always held in leash the blacks and still holding. Black gangsters are street guys, they don't think, they don't use their brains, all they do is fucking around and killing people.

Re: General Mob Questions
Anyone knows how did Domenic Grande got the nickname, Mr. Hopkins?
Re: General Mob Questions
Maybe he got from Johns Hopkins. Something like this might have happened, let's say they were all sitting at a bar, drinking . little bit wasted and Dom said ' Im gonna invest on something and gonna be entrepreneur' and let's say Steve Mazzone said 'who the fuck do you think your are? Johns Hopkins? And somebody put Mr instead of Johns. I'm forcing too much, I know but everything can happen in this world.Shellackhead wrote: ↑Sun Feb 14, 2021 6:37 am Anyone knows how did Domenic Grande got the nickname, Mr. Hopkins?

Re: General Mob Questions
Question to Solei (or the board if they have the answer):
Why are links to Scott Burnstein articles banned? I was unaware, as it also appears, is Scott.
Thanks.
