1. "As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a gangster"
Now the guy's got Paulie as a partner. Any problems, he goes to Paulie. Trouble with a bill, he can go to Paulie. Trouble with the cops, deliveries, Tommy, he can call Paulie.

But now the guy's got to come up with Paulie's money every week, no matter what. "Business bad? Fuck you, pay me." "Oh, you had a fire? Fuck you, pay me." "The place got hit by lightning, huh? Fuck you, pay me." Also, Paulie could do anything. Especially run up bills on the joint's credit. And why not? Nobody's gonna pay for it anyway. And as soon as the deliveries are made in the front door, you move the stuff out the back and sell it at a discount. You take a two hundred dollar case of booze and you sell it for a hundred. It doesn't matter. It's all profit.

And then finally, when there's nothing left, when you can't borrow another buck from the bank or buy another case of booze - you bust the joint out. You light a match.
