Yea, that didn't make sense. Ghost should've been sitting on 20-30 million bare minimum operating a network of that size and living in a NYC penthouse. And thats bare minimum. He really should've had alot more.

Buying clubs and shyt...prime Manhattan real estate.

They should've just shown that his money was dirty and that it was hard to clean it, not that he didn't have money.

That was my immediate reaction, they not really doing it big if 200k-300k worth of product missing/jacked gets them panicked and scrambling....

Should had M's offshore and dirty money washed thru clubs w/a little liquidity to show....

Even Marlo had Ms before he sold the connect and he was nowhere near Ghost's level...

Gotta agree.

Snowfall more realistic on that front. Franklin is a younger version of Ghost but, he's supplying LA like Ghost was supposedly supplying NYC and Franklin was sitting on M's. Ghost should have money like that. Its a plot hole.

On God they tried to make this nikka a real Trapaholic but this nikka didn’t even have a passion for trapping. I feel like this nikka never made more than 200 real plays in his lifetime.

Dumb ass nikka trying to be in love with a federal agent. Call his self trying to be low key but married a chick from 3LW smh. Let that cac outsmart him 1000 times over that club shyt and this nikka supposed to be a smart new age drug dealer. Fake ass Tupac in a business suit. Ol face of the operation ass nikka ain’t never ready sold no packs like that.


the way he was sweet on Angela....nah man you know he wasn't THAT guy :mjlol:

The show with Mary J is the same way. Every time I watch it they scrambling to come up with cash or drugs. While wearing $2000 sweaters in the summer and driving $100,000 cars.


I couldn’t imagine selling millions in drugs and only having $13,589 in cash. :dahell:

Tariq is what people think Ghost was :wow:

Tariq (OG Power) is one of the worst characters ever put on a television screen. He's what would happen if Matt Bevilaqua, Sean Gismonte, and Jackie Aprile, Jr. were somehow successful with pulling off the stupid shyt they did.

You forgot AJ Soprano too....panic attacks and simping over a Dominican with a baby that isn't even his smh...this is Tony's "hair" apparent?


[Dealing with a connect]
Riq: "I'll give you the stuff...but promise you'll give me my money?"
Marlo Stanfield: "Sure younging...ain't no thing..."

At least they acknowledged A.J. wasn't cut out for the mob life and they didn't even try to write him as if he knew what he was doing. That's one thing I like about The Sopranos. The stupid characters don't progress in that life and when they make bad decisions, they get punished for it. The one time they had A.J. do anything related to crime (his attempt to kill Uncle Junior), he failed. His friends convinced him he had to do it when they had no idea what they were talking about and Tony wasn't impressed at all. He told him the reality: If they didn't have connections, A.J. would have been charged with attempted murder and most likely convicted.

If Tariq tried to kill someone who shot Ghost, he would have succeeded. :comeon:

He was all on tv for a murder case and ran for Lt.Governor and no one ever put it together or ratted him out.


But see. That's the beauty in op's statement, james st patrick never sold packs, ghost did, and most street heads never knew ghost by face recognition, only by name an reputation...remember they always said with ghost, you never see him comming, and never see him leave.
Very few could tie him to either side of the game, and had it not been for tariq, you never caught him slipping.

that's why on his very last episode, they called it "NOBODY CAN STOP ME".....breh beat everyone, he beat concilman tate, he beat jason, he beat the rich white boys, he beat the Italians, he beat the streets, he beat the feds....

I mean, the whole point of the show was that he DIDN’T want to be in the game, and was trying to get out lol.

He did, the problem is he money was tied up an invested in so many different ventures.
That's why when he needed cash mediately he robbed his own stash house for that million.

And nobody carries around millions of dollars, if you went to the bank an even wanted to cash out a couple 100k it would take a day or so to clear cause most transaction over 100k will cause a bank In house investigation to make sure everything is clear, that's when you really need large amounts of cash on hand you go to different sources or barrow

Ghost wasn't the supplier of all of New York, but ghost also spent alot of money.
Ghost apartment alone was 10k at least.
Not to mention he ran 4 nightclubs
He also had to pay for lawyers
payroll of his whole organization.
I would say Ghost spent about 200k a month, not to mention all the hush money on the under
Plush tasha an tommy was stealing money
