first off, please believe these dudes were clocking MILLS of the drug game.

as far as million dollar legal business, that would be YEARS off. you just want enough straight money to hide the illegal money.
Yup...

+rep to anyone who finds the scene where Lester talks about how much money they brought in from the towers. Its somewhere in season 1.

That shyt BURNED.

I always felt bad for stringer, here he was trying to leave the thousand dollar illegal business and get into the million dollar legal business and his partner is like "nah nikka lets stay knee deep in this fukkery that everyone in ends up dead or in jail."

stringer-:what::why::wtf::snoop:

It was never gonna happen cause Stringer didn't know that game. Look at how easily he got took by Clay Davis. He just handed him a briefcase full of money like it was nothing.

In the streets he was a big fish in a small pond. He wasn't ready for those white collar sharks. They would have ate him alive.

Avon told him not to mess with those away games. Stick with what you know .

Avon could've let Slim Charles "holler" at Clay D over that money but he didn't cause he was happy that stringer failed. Misery loves company.

Stringer was about to gentrify Baltimore bruh, they would've been BILLIONAIRES.

There was no reason to be in street battles with Marlo like that. Avon just had low expectations for his life


:comeon: Comments in regards to how Stringer was getting fukked over ran all the way into Season 5 breh.

Don't rewrite history. Clay Davis and them were running game on Stringer from day one. He wasn't about to become shyt which was why he wanted to hit Clay Davis. As unsophisticated as Avon might have seem he was right about everything he said.

:whoa: I didn't mean kill clay Davis. That was a bit on the ridiculous side. Slim Charles and the goons could've put some fear in his heart to do right by string.

Clay Davis is the type of nikka that you have to kill. When you're at that level of corruption there really isn't much you can do that would really intimidate him.
