Kaufe Anthoy Ruggiano Jr einen Kaffee

My name is Anthony Ruggiano Jr., and I grew up in the world of organized crime. My father, Anthony “Fat Andy” Ruggiano, was a made member of the Gambino crime family, and for a long time, I followed in his footsteps. That life led to prison, addiction, and loss — but it also gave me the opportunity to change.

Today, I’m more than my past. I’m a reformed gangster, a man in long-term recovery, and someone who shares his story to help others find redemption. Through my Reformed Gangsters Podcast, live events, and speaking engagements, I talk openly about the choices I made, the consequences I faced, and the lessons I learned about loyalty, family, and transformation.

Every coffee, every bit of support, helps me keep creating honest conversations — the kind that show people it’s never too late to turn your life around.
