This is Aureliu (Aurică) Agavriloaiei also known as Rică or Ricu or Rico sitting on his favorite bench in the Giardino Publico in Milan the other day. He lives with his wife Ludmila, very frugally, in a small apartment, they bought close by, on via Carlo Teneca. You wouldn't be able to tell from looking, but Rico has great wealth, an unbelievable memory for numbers and a very volatile and violent temper. He is the principal of the largest scalper network in Milan - they resell hundreds of thousands of tickets a year for, mainly, la Scala, AC Milan and Inter for hundreds of thousands of Euro in profits. Ludmila runs a group of Russian hackers who write bots to buy up tickets at face-value and Rico runs the distribution: street vendors. The couple has two kids: Enrico (28) who owns two Auto Repair shops and Profira (30) who owns three Fitness Clubs. All family enterprises are very successful because they launder money for Rico, ship containers of hot Audis and BMWs to Uzbekistan and Azerbaijan and sell illegal steroids on the side. Both Enrico and Profira drive high-end Mercedes-Benz cars and live in luxury villas just outside Milan. All-in-all this is one European Union family success story. Rico plans to retire and return to his native Târgu-Neamț to spend his time hunting and fishing.
