Born Vittorio Pallazzolo in Bari, southern Italy, a few streets away from Carmelo Barbero and Frank Luprano's relatives. He was son of a construction manager with long work days and poor payment. Vito's father, Alfonso Palazzolo, was also an amateur boxer who was a strong head of the family. Vito loved boxing as well, just like his father and was not afraid of blood. Slowly, step after step, his Vito’s mother, Luciana Palazzolo (name meaning: light) strove to achieve her life goals; becoming a mathematic-teacher (she loved the handling of numbers and people) and having self-employment, she was always devoting her energy and time to new areas of income:no matter if it was real estate, precious metals, precious stones, new business investments and taking advantage of untapped business niches (bakery in a place, where people need one..). Vito Palazzolo had a great mix between the endeavor of logical thinking,independent education and hard work. His father died early at a work accident. This layed a huge amount of responsibility on Vito. He was forced to become an adult and his mother was overwhelmed with this situation. She gave Vito a huge amount of money – just in hope he wouldn't see her falling deeper and deeper :she threw her money away, drunk during the daytime and losing her discipline to keep her business running. One day she bought wine in a gas station, was drunk, happy, laughing, and walked out into the street, not watching the traffic into a car, which put her body in the oncoming traffic and she was hit by a truck. Vito got his master in chemistry at the age of 22. It was a great balancing act between the research of new areas (drugs), improving the process of known drugs and the legal work in the laboratory as a researcher (not well paid, but a safe place). Vito quickly recognized that the changing of the world begins with him: He had to see: In problems the freedom of decision. In decisions - their consequences and possible outcomes. In errors - learning and trying again with a better start - which in turn lead to success. He will always be as modest as his mother, no one will ever know how much power and money is working in the background. The security over money stands: Dead people are not able to spend their million of dollars. You should work as hard as possible without putting yourself in danger, think in larger time intervals, and let the money work for you. Discipline daily to work on future goals was vital for Vito. The way you present yourself, your appearance, gestures, facial expression - is your self-confidence. Vito acknowledged three key questions in his day to day business; What is time-consuming? What is profit? What is dangerous? Protecting the family is the most important: therefore he had no problems to sell his drugs in foreign countries. He was not a gun nut, they were only a means for the purpose; protection and solving “problems”. He always solves his problems personally, if necessary, with his hands. He was quick to realize that he could not achieve everything on his own, so he joined the Luprano family through connections in Bari, and eventually came over to the island, after proving his loyalty during various tasks. With the first orders he realized quickly that violence did not irritate him, he could shoot people without hesitation but the thrill of making money with his mind is what gave him his adrenaline rush.Vito wanted to work for the office of the consigliere, which seemed to him in an unachievable distance, but was his goal. Due to his negotiating skills, the nickname "Snake" was awarded to him. He can judge people well and therefore also manipulate well psychologically. He was a great actor, even to people to whom he desires death; he could surrender and be friendly and, if necessary, give the death penalty - which made him an unpredictable weapon. His enemies can not look into him, but their are feeling of him has to be fully illuminated. He was struggling to move to the next step as early as possible, he had a healthy balance between philosophy and action. Now his attitude and skills in life keep all doors open for him. __________________________________________________________________________________________ i wanna have two lifes. one as a lawyer, politican - to control some laws and decisions maybe like in the game "guilde2" work legal, safe money and invest it with other players in some thing stabil legal work like in the game "godfather" or "gangster2" or the movie "peaky Blinders" = build up small bussnisses , grow them up, have a legal and illegal section, bribe some high positions and the police to get green light start a serious untouchable monopole of drugs (like in the movie "BreakingBad")/ prostitution / illegal races / gun sell. control the town in peace, everyone who is on our side get some money, who is against us have only the wish never been born. plan, prepare and conduct bank robberies, just like in the game "payday2" run away, hide, seek, share the money to the top of the mafia tree, so the decide the next safe/ useful step to earn more money, respect, territory = get more members, make more jobs at the same time, get better weapons, better cars, more political influence, safe routes (guarded by our family) cooking meth, rob factories for ingredients, hire some soldiers to protect the cooking process, hunt policeofficers, kidnap some from high society and make in the end a family war against non allianced familys buy every shop in town, and every member should have some weapons, a car, a motorcycle, a house, an apartment. big organisations (tansport) passiv income

holy dont glad to hear that at least: 1. could you say us which weapons will be used, 2. how may cameras will be there and how to deactived them, 3. can we drive into the bank,if not, where will be the best spot to throw the money through the windows into the cars? 4. how long it takes till cops arrive, (first wave, 2nd, 3rd...) 5. how much TNT is needed to get into the vault or how long does it take to get into the vault with a drill? 6. is there only cash or gold too, do you own something to get money out of the building? 7. are there buildings in the near so we could play sniper, if needed? 8. is there something like a shift changeover, what are the security suits looks like? 9. are there some unprotected entrences, like basement, roof and where 10. are the alarm buttons hidden and how to deactived them (just to protect your customers and staff - nobody need to get hurt if not needed...)
