Whats the Difference between a Gangster and a Hustler?

[DatNkkaCutty]

They say someone like Sammy "The Bull (Rat)" Gravano was the epitome of both, so I'll use him as an example...

He knew how to get to the bag on a large scale, and was gangster enough to put in his own work/violence when needed. Most ppl only excel at one, or the other.

Wouldn't a goon good just be a thug though?


A dude selling bootleg movies and socks isn't hustler.

There are levels to selling bootleg movies......and if you were in the hustle, you would know.

Why on Earth would I want to sell bootleg movies?

I once heard a white guy who commentates on the mafia say that gangsters only do two things make money or kill. A definition of a hustler was not included in description though.

I'd like to here from the first before I say how I understand it.

Ones in sales
The other is a devil

We re talking about the hustle and you said bootleg movies is not a hustle.

You do know that 'selling' bootleg movies can be as lucrative as moving weight.......

that depends on what you're hustling and if you backup your business with violence lies and deception

Hustlers are about making money by any means.

They got a mouth piece, they’re social, and they’re always working angles.

A gangster is similar, but will skip all the slick talk/building and shoot some shyt up to get theirs way quicker.

2 different types of motivations

Hustlers crave money. Gangsters crave power. And gangsters hustle on road to assessing it.

 

[Counter Racist Male]

Hustlers do it for the money, gangsters do it for respect

Don't you have flashy hustlers though?

 

[Counter Racist Male]

I had to make sure I understood it right.

organization & legitimate power

gangsters are the final stage in the evolution of the street food.chain

hustlers are found scattered through every level of the wrong.side of the law

hustlers chase money that can be true of the ignorant petty thug or the most intelligent sophisticated svengali

many of the biggest g's are the biggest hustlers

g's have a faculty & staff under their direction with power to move pieces all across the board

a hustler can hustle dolo & g must have others that act under his will & word
