Scott I do understand. I've got all your books but I'm raising a family. It's hard to pay for some articles you know what I mean? It makes it seem like everything's about money.

The guy has to make some money to feed HIS family. He writes the best shit out there, does a free podcast and writes very good books. I think he's a lawyer so if it was all about the money, he'd be a corporate bankruptcy atty at Kasowitz or an M and A atty. I don't see him on youtube begging for donations like those other mutts. So you want him to sit on the phone w former feds, gangsters, sitting on hold & requesting documents? Jesus, he meets these ppl in person (some big shots on both sides of law) so he needs to pay for gas, meals etc.

I'm not coming down on you, Robert. I understand that you raising fam and its expensive but that last sentence "It makes it seem like everything's about money" is nuts. If you own a diner, do you give out cheeseburger deluxe all day long b/c bustomer has to pay bills. We all do. Maybe something got lost in translation but you cannot be serious asking to do this work gratis.

There is far less qualified people out there charging for articles on their fly by night piece of Chinese dog sh*t websites that never work right. If I was Scott I would of started charging when I began writing books.

Scott Burnstein also has the only good mob podcast. Are there any more mob podcasts worth listening to? I'd like to know. thx
Double deal. Especially if you’re interested in NE stuff. But the way it’s done is terrific. Makes it one of the top mob pods in general imo.
If nobody sees it, it didn't happen.

Appreciate you guys understanding. I'm now covering NYC on the site too. But I will approach the coverage in a different way than Jerry.
