@usafjeff I should not though that his paper was working off 1980′s records. And also it doesn’t probe anyone above the pit and tower chiefs who made about 100k.

So they couldn’t get figures on people like Joe, Avon etc. I think the estimate for an average exec figure (ie. somebody in the coop) was like 300k but I may be pulling that number outta my ass. been a while

@usafjeff

Some of the most first hand research of incomes from the drug trade comes from Sudhir Venkatesh of Harvard (who basically lived with drug dealers for years) and Steven Levitt of U Chicago.

By their reports, average wages were as follows:

Vendors (ie. hoppers) are making below minimum wage, around $2400 a year.

Mercenaries (ie. muscles) made about $2000 a month during wartime.

Pit crew/tower chiefs could see 80-100k per year.

People in the board of directors made like over 100k.

Avon Barksdale and Slim had a lot of heroic qualities.

“you know i don’t want my fuckin name and face on no damn wall, you crazy nigga” hahahaha

Cutty was one of my favorite characters. A straight out criminal turned to a better life in the long run. Shows that people can change.

usafjeff December 8, 2009 at 06:54

not true. 365 mil a year? thats doubtful too, but have you ever actually been to baltimore? the drug trade, not as unified as it looked in The Wire, overall accrues a much larger sum than 300x million of dollars annually. with the massive amount of real estate and other ‘investments’ these figures had going on, the Barksdale organization could’ve easily been making many millions annually.

@uombo This show is called The Wire, was on HBO

uombo December 8, 2009 at 07:31

whats the name of the movie?

I hear what you’re sayin, but there are always exceptions. Some less common than others, but always exceptions.

philaowens81 December 8, 2009 at 08:04

if this were the mafia, cutty would of been murdered for wanting to leave the game. avon is the man because he never forgets who helped him get where he is. shows avon has a heart, although he is a drug kingpin.

THEREALtrappajohn December 8, 2009 at 08:27

even tho this was only a show,…….Avon was still that nigga, u feel me?!

TheJerseyChimpmunk December 8, 2009 at 08:44

what do u mean for nothing? all them years doing dirt for avon, thats nothing?

TheGatman101 December 8, 2009 at 09:13

haha…. he actually looks like a nigga that jus got 15 grand cash for nuttin

gheefreak December 8, 2009 at 09:30

I love the look on Cutty’s face. I’m so sorry the show is over, I got so attached to each and every one of those characters. I can’t think of one I didn’t want to succeed. Except maybe Royce or Davis. Everyone else? I love ‘em all.

MARLO is what the game bred Avon was the GAME!!!

onepunchmicky December 8, 2009 at 11:01

@ SpeakinAxiom, at most he was making a mil a month, no street dealer is making 365mil a year selling to the street. in a few neighborhoods.

VarialProductions December 8, 2009 at 11:59

Marlo wouldn’t even raise his voice. He’d just nod his head at Chris and it’d be on.

When We Ride On Our Enemies by Tupac. Its on his Better Dayz album.

SpeakinAxiom December 8, 2009 at 13:46

I remember one episode near the beginning of the show saying he was making a mill a day.

AJW2184 December 8, 2009 at 13:54

I wonder how much Avon is worth overall. Obviously millions, but is it over 100 or what? With all those businesses he’d have to have a lot of cash.

anwelln December 8, 2009 at 14:24

*i mean the song when they’re all in avon’s hideout

anwelln December 8, 2009 at 15:15
