If you act, breathe, eat, sleep Italian but your parents are called O'Malley or Mahesh, you can't get in. If you have a sprinkle of Italian from some long-lost great-grandfather who got horny while Italy was fighting in Somalia, you can't get in. You get the point.

La Cosa Nostra roughly translates from Italian as "this thing of ours." It's the American version of the Sicilian Mafia. There are all kinds of other names too. "The Mob," "The Outfit," "The Shop Front," "The Arm," "The Syndicate," "The Organization," take your pick.

A Family or Famiglia is a unit of La Cosa Nostra comprised of groups of "made men" from 20 to 300 apiece, each headed by a "Boss."

La Cosa Nostra is hierarchical in structure, each made man or member has certain "jobs" to perform, specific money-generating "businesses," and a defined superior.

How well you do inside the Family depends on how much of an earner you are. The more you earn, the more important you become. Equally, every Family needs an enforcer. If you excel as an enforcer and show enthusiasm and gusto in your work, your importance also goes up. If you are a good earner and a good enforcer, your future is bright and lined with plenty of mistresses.

As you move up the chain, you get to keep more of the profits from your "activities" and be involved in more lucrative activities. It's in the interest of every made man to be part-earner/part-enforcer in order to build a comfortable (and protected) lifestyle for his own family (let me clear this up now; family is the one with kids and a nagging wife, Family is the other one).

If you understand these principles, you understand how promotions are handed out. Now, how you become a good earner or a good enforcer in the first place... I'll let the movie types try to enlighten you on that. 

With that in mind, lets begin.

We are currently looking for some outstanding individuals who are serious, dedicated, highly driven and diciplined.  If you are willing to learn, work as a team and follow ALL of the rules, we would like to talk to you. 

We have a lot of work to do in NJ.  The potential is $ENDLESS$.  If interested, we urge you to apply for membership.

Grazie And Good Luck!

"People have loved outlaws since the beginning. Plus, they're set up like soldiers, which is another story
people love... like the regime that they have. I think it's just anyone that goes outside the law and outside
of the norm -- and they do it with a little more flair" - - James Gandolfini
