He could have had a prettier Goomar for a measley fur coat and some lame jewelry from Kay’s.

What in the world is a "goomar?" Wait, I know, you are using the non-existant 'Italian' slang word for mistress that they used on The Soprano's?

No such word. The word that was slaughtered on that show is "Goomada." The producers mistook the 'ada' sound for a rolled 'r.'

No one had a Goomar, but they do have a Goomada.

I’d like to hear more about that. You’re probably right. I just watch the Sopranos. Never bothered to do any research except this:

Goomah (sometimes pronounced “goomar”): a Mafia mistress; also comare.

As I recall it, the term is actually goomba which is an Italian slang term for a good friend:
