Stupid ass kids, I am amazed they got away with it for so long.
from layer cake ..."And avoid like the plague, loud attention seeking wannabe gangsters who are in it for the glory, to be a face, to be a name. They don't mean to fuck up. They just do. Oh, and forgive me for stating the obvious, but stay away from the end user. They're guaranteed to bring you trouble."
flashiness is the easiest way for the cops to find people. yall heard the story of BMF the black mafia family led by Big Meech. those guys painted a target on themselves with all the lambos and exotic cars, partying, videos, rapping about cocaine. got them busted.
the guys the feds can never catch are those dudes who just stick to business and rarely anything else. keep it lowkey to not only duck cops, but also other dealers, rippers, etc.
"It's funny," he continues. "Everyone asks me, 'Do you regret what you did?' And the answer is, fuck no. I mean, I think of myself as an entrepreneur, and I went about some of that the wrong way. But I've done more at twenty-two than most people do their whole lives. I partied my ass off. There were so many women. I smoked so much weed. Anyone says they regret that, they're full of shit. They're saying that to please other people. I don't care. I had a blast."
there are some rules of thumb but i have to say, if you're meant to be big time, you will. if not, you'll end up in prison like 90% of the others who couldn't handle their shit. That other 10% is living large.
