I am not a Wiseguy so I could be wrong, but this is what it seems to be now days:

The old timers, the Capos basically who are still on the street are wealthy if they did things right. Like Danny Marino investing in land and commercial real-estate.

The younger soldiers are living "score to score" just as normal citizens, tax paying citizens are living "pay check to pay check"

Your normal Mob Rackets still extist today, Loan Sharking, Gambling, Drug Dealing, Prostitution, etc. One of the things I loved about the sopranos was the Hud Scheme, those are the type of "one hit rackets" the Mob is into now days. Make as much as you can on a scam like that and run.

Anyway, point being, The old time Capos who stashed money away are good, the soldiers, most of them anyway are struggling. Why do you think so many soldiers and associates flip now days when facing a small 5-10 year bit? Its not worth it to them anymore, they could make more money being a legit citizen.

In the 70's, 80's and even 90's people did their 5-20 year stint in the Can and they knew they would be taken care of while in the Can and when they got out. Not now
