I don't think they really can afford anything, if not the money from the show.
GROWING UP GOTTI FULL EPISODES TV
Firstly, I don't think they're rich, and the lifestyle they're showing on the TV was just for the show. What kind of fake? - The life style is fake, the attitude is fake, everything is fake!!!!. This is the least interesting family I have ever seen. The show was funny because of the stupidity.at first. Spoiled, rude brats.and they just don't seem very bright at all. She comes and goes as she pleases.I can't remember seeing her do any work at all. I don't find anyone on it the least bit likable or interesting.

The absolute deal-breaker is the fact that. Still, my biggest problem with this show. Clearly this is a desperate attempt to pull each episode together.somehow. New characters have been thrown in, and others taken away for entertainment's sake. 'Growing up Gotti' is supposed to be a look at this family. But shows like these are based on the premise of putting people and celebrities in a created environment. Of course, I realize that other reality shows do this. The only thing real about it is the fact that everything is really staged. Mainly because promoting it as a reality show is false advertising, in my opinion. Not by any means good (except when borrowing British whodunits) but so much better than this purposeless, offensive yet somewhat strangely impossible-to-make-compelling farce. And general shame on you as to the cable A&E or "Bio." channel I saw this on. That is only the South, so kudos for getting Naples right and Tuscany wrong. As a half-Italian good old fashioned communist girl I took particular offense at the implied witless remarks suggesting Italy is still ruled by the Mafia. And creepy but in a way that diminishes the humanity of the God knows how many victims these people founded their money, vulgarity and tastelessness upon. Look how it's possible to live on Blood Money and no talent whatsoever in modern America". I cannot endure it for more than the 15 minutes I was exposed to by a not-all-that-well-meaning friend when it's a case of "Watch us! See how brainless AND rich we are. I can endure that if the people in question display ANY kind of talent, interesting quirkiness or even clinical schizophrenia.

It's not their ignorance, cursing, rudeness or immense self-indulgence that puts me off. I am far more dubious about people whose only claim to notoriety is being the wife / daughter / grandson of some petty hit-man. I am even sufficiently endowed with a huge circle of friends of many 'preferences in entertainment' to grant you that even minor criminals (still murderous but less stylish, say) can grab your attention for a few episodes. I admit that some notorious criminals may hold a certain fascination to viewers of reality shows.
