Was Mafia overlord, Salvatore Riina a billionaire?
Mafia bosses are so secretive and elusive, we never find out their net worth unlike the partying lifestyles of the drug lords.
What's known is that in the 1980s, Sicilian Mafia controlled 90% of the world's heroin trade (raking in $3 Billion / year)...not to forget the enormous revenue from arms trafficking, extortion, contract skimming etc...and as the "Boss of all Bosses" I'm sure Riina took a lion's share of the earnings
Uptil now $125 million of Riina's assets have been confiscated, but that's "only a fraction" of his total assets according to Investigators.

Because Escobar was a multi billionaire...and I was wondering if Riina (the most powerful Boss ever) was a billionaire too?

Does Salvatore Riina have a movie based on him yet?
And there are probably Middle Eastern heroin f.ucks who made way more than Escobar, we just dont know about it

Those bosses had to spend a lot to run their businesses as well.

Same can be said about you and politics - he's looking at it as a historical perspective.
You on the other hand care about politics as if you're going to amount to someone who's going to make a difference. Reality check, DRESTA checks on you a NBA messageboard. Good luck

The reason I asked is OP seems to be a fanboy.
That there would be some reflected glory if he was a billionaire.
