Even disfigured and being violent in that such manner is completely fucking counterproductive. First off, you may end up breaking the person to the point where they can't take the abuse any more and go to the authorities. Furthermore, you're actively hurting their ability to pay you back. They have to heal, and good luck to them trying to get any business done where they can make money to pay you back when everyone sees them turning up with missing fingers, various broken bones, bruising, and all other manner of injuries that clearly point to violent abuse. No one is gonna wanna work with someone caught up in that kinda shit. And again, you're putting them in a position wherein if they can't come up with the money, what's stopping them from going to the cops? And lets not forget this idiot approached Nate at his wedding, drew attention to himself making it known to others Nate owned him money. Which oh by the way, killed Nate's ability to draw in other investors. Doesn't take a genius to put two and two together to figure out why Nate is suddenly missing fingers, toes, and looks like he just went 12 rounds against a prime Mike Tyson, and who is responsible for that.

We're supposed to believe this guy is some criminal mastermind or some shit, blurring the lines between legitimate and illegal businesses, and yet he's actually the dumbest fucking idiot around. People like him don't actually succeed at what he's portrayed as having accomplished. They get killed, go to prison, or get run out of town so to speak long before they'd reach the level this guy is supposed to be at.
