Pablo Escober was a Colombian drug lord and Narcoterrorist. He was the founder and leader of Medellin Cartel. Escober is the wealthiest criminal in history. At the time of his death, his estimated net worth was US 30 billion dollars. He exhibited a tremendous network with smugglers just to supply cocaine in the U.S. There was no drug lord like Escober in the American market. Thats why he became the most powerful person in Columbia. Day after day he expanded his business so much and build himself as a global drug lord. He has tried to run his biography from a certain point of view. So far, many TV series and movies have been made only with his achievements. Pablo Escober once burned 2 million USD just to keep his family warm when he was hiding in a cave from the police. During his lifetime he did not bother so much with his statements while dealing with cocaine. So we didn’t cover so much either. Nevertheless, we have tried to highlight some verified Pablo Escober quotes. Let’s see then…
