How High Would You Rank in the Mafia?

About This Quiz

There was a time when - as long as you were an able-bodied white man - you could leave high school with no degree, walk into a job that could support a family of four on a single income, and stay there for the next 40 years bringing home the bacon on a regular basis. You'd retire with enough to live on and a gold watch in hand. Those days were, of course, a historical aberration. The offer they made wasn't available to most people at the time, and now, it's hardly available to anyone at all. What is a hard working enterprising soul to do in a time of economic uncertainty, when switching careers every ten years seems like the norm?

Fortunately for those in the right kinds of families, the answer is written for them. They go into the family's very legitimate and not at all shady business. A little drug running here, some corrupt public contracts there, a dash of "protection" money, skim off a portion to keep the police, mayor, and courts happy and looking the other way, and you have a nice little earner on your hands. How far could you go in such an enterprise? It's time to find out!
