Maybe he's been in business for awhile.

This opens up a whole new can of worms. Could the Foot be a legitimate, government-aided company? Maybe the Foot are viewed as the "Good Guys" by the people of NY, wheras the Turtles are hated and feared. Shred could use this cover to plan his ulterior motives and conquer the world! Bwahahaha!

...damn, some one needs to write a fanfic about that.

Well i dont think shredder tries to take over the world this time, his goals are probably a little more realistic, like making money.

Bah. He's an evil villian. Evil villians always try to take over the world. If not the world, then New York.

If his goals are just money, then that sounds a little boaring but I can see it, it could get repetitive though

Who says villains can only have one goal? Who says he can't try and make money, take over the city/world AND kill the turtles all at the same time? Maybe he's good at multitasking.

Well thats what he does in original comics. He runs a "protective" firm. No taking over the world. But this time there can be something more to it, Judging by the house.

ahem

i always perceived Saki as motivated in consolidating his power and control over New York City. not so much money, but more about power (although the two are obviously related).

I dont know about that controll part, Maybe when he came back from the Dead, but before that he ran that protective business, of course there was illegal activity, but he didnt really try to controll anything that time.

*blinks* But protection rackets are all about control. It's about having control over those you "protect". Like being a professional bully. True, a great deal of it is about money, but there is a control factor. Controlling the city's underground (don't mean that literally) illegal activities gives you a lot of power.

You are right if you look at it from that angel, I tought he ment a little more larger scale of controll. You could say he controled the underworld of New York. Atleast in some area.
