Ventures
Ventures are the best way to earn cash in the game, and you can profit from them on a regular basis. Each venture has its hourly income, and you can increase income by completing all Threats from the same district. After purchasing a venture, make sure to complete it in 100% to generate the maximum amount of money and receive one-off rewards.
Once you unlock the criminal business management table, buy new ventures and place them on the city map. Always try to buy all currently available ventures as early as possible. Their prices will increase, but each of them will pay off with interest over time.
Use the Cash Transfer app to transfer money to your account regularly and avoid reaching the revenue limit, which will cause Ventures to stop providing you with money.
Missions and Activities
Completing missions and optional activities is another way to earn cash. Story missions are the best, as you will receive several thousand dollars for completing each of them. Dumpster Diving activities are also great, as you can “fish out” up to several thousand dollars from each dumpster.
Crime Opportunity
Crime Opportunities are random events that occur in the game world. Look for the dollar bag icon on the map and interact with it to earn cash.
The events described are typically easy to complete – upon arrival, you must eliminate several gang members and steal the cash container. You can also earn XP and loot from the defeated enemies.
Loot
The last primary method is to collect the cash dropped by your opponents. Always make sure to run over the area where the enemies fell to pick up the cash. It will be automatically “pulled” towards you, and your account balance will increase.
Spending Money
Money can be spent on various things, but it’s best to prioritize those that will be useful to you later in the game. These include:
- New Ventures – This is by far the most crucial investment, as purchasing more ventures will increase your earnings. We recommend saving all the money you earn for the available ventures, and if possible, for those that will be unlocked in the future (after advancing in the campaign). Unfortunately, ventures from higher levels of the criminal empire are increasingly more expensive (e.g. $400,000 instead of $30,000).
- Weapons and Upgrades – We recommend acquiring a diverse arsenal and spending money on improving weapons to increase their base stats.
- Favorite Vehicle Mods – You don’t have to purchase vehicles; you can steal them and add them to your garage. The expenses are associated with their upgrades.
- Perk Slots – Initially, you only have one slot for the lowest quality perk, and the rest must be purchased. Unfortunately, the second and third tier perk slots are very expensive.
We do not suggest spending a significant amount of money on clothing, as they are purely cosmetic.
