Agreed. Getting that much money for doing, well, nothing apart from being scary is kind of the mobster ideal, yes?Wiseguy wrote:Lonardo's end - as much as $10,000 a month - would be nearly $30,000 in today's money. Or about $350,000 over a year going to him. It may not be the fantasy "Don Corleone money" we see in The Godfather but I don't think it's anything to sniff at.

i think the appeal of the skim was the ease and the consistency, nothing shady that brought near the amount of heat that plenty of other rackets did at the time.

But looking at the full picture, going back to the beginning and Cuba it was millions and millions. Just looking at the Strawman cases and yea it looks like it was more trouble then it was worth.
