RECESSION TIPS FOR THE MAFIA


Let’s face it these financial times are tough. Most of us can look to Unemployment for aid and help with searching the job market. But for some specific craftsmen, there’s really no one they can turn to. So for those in Organized Crime, I offer these solutions for saving a few bucks:

Use Piano Wire and or Knives – Bullets cost money and can’t be reused. By choosing a piano wire or knife for various up-close hits, you’re not only cutting down costs but you’re also getting in touch with your craft by having a more “hands on” approach.

Severed Donkey Heads – Donkeys are a lot cheaper than horses. So when you want to send a message “old school style” a donkey pretty much gets the same point across. Nobody’s gonna turn those bed sheets down and say “Not to worry, it’s only a donkey head.”

Fake Diamonds or “Fugazis” – Continue to get your wives the real stuff because they’re the “mother of your children!” But when it comes to your girlfriends or “Goomars” you can cut costs by getting fake ones. You really should be doing that anyways because chances are they won’t be around for too long, one way or another.

The Olive Garden – Those fancy dinners at high-end Italian eateries can really add up. You’re going to have to hit the old Olive Garden. Actually I hear it’s pretty good. There was a commercial for it on TV the other day. It was a family that had a relative coming over from Italy and in order to give him a taste of the “old country” they took him to the Olive Garden. He really seemed to like it. Plus there's like unlimited salad and bread!


And of course some classic money-saving ideas will always help like: carpooling, brown bagging and ratting on your friends.
