I’m breaking down the supposed “most lucrative mob businesses”—from prohibition to gas scams and gambling. But don’t buy the numbers you hear in the media. I’ve seen them throw billions around, but do they actually know? Not a chance. I lived the life, I know what these rackets were really about: opportunity, not daily assignment. Informants exaggerate, media estimates are wild guesses. I’ll show you the real reason some rackets built the Mafia. Learn what was myth, what was true, and how I made it big. Trust me, nobody kept ledgers. This isn’t Hollywood, this is straight talk on the business of organized crime—what worked, what didn’t, and what outsiders will never get right.
