Grand Theft Auto V: How to make more money

Grand Theft Auto V is the continuation of everybody’s favorite criminal activity sandbox game, but in this game there are actually a number of ways to be the “good guy” and go legit if you so choose. If you want to make money via criminal activity, you can do that, but if you want to make money without criminal activity, you can do it the same way. Read on to find out how to make more money in Grand Theft Auto V!

First, how to make money while being the bad guy. You can wait by an ATM (but out of sight) and rob people after they make a withdrawal. Hire some “ladies of the night” if you want to. Engage in heists, but listen for clues as to what heists are the most lucrative. Make sure that you higher a large and powerful enough crew to complete the heists.

Of course, one of the best ways to make fast money is to hijack an armored truck. Doing this is a great way to earn an instant payday. You’ll have to be careful of the cops, of course. Robbing stores can make you money, as long as you don’t kill the clerk, and again, watch out for cops.

Want to make money legitimately? There are some ways to do that as well. Buy properties and businesses. If you own stores, warehouses, residences, and more, you can make passive income from those. The more properties that you buy, the more money that you can make.

Follow police sirens and stop robberies. If you stop a robbery, you can make money stolen from the robber, or you can return the money for a reward. That’s one way to make money and be the “good guy”.

Invest in the stock market. You can listen to the radio for stock tips, or you can use real life investment principles to learn how to play the highs and the lows. Be warned that you can lose the entire pot of money that you put in if the company fails, but if you get a good hit, you can make a TON of money.

Train Chop using the iFruit app to search around for items. Oftentimes he will find items buried in the dirt, which you can then keep and/or sell. Sometimes they are stolen items, while sometimes they are just lost items.

Race with people, and win. If you win, not only will you earn money, but you will increase your driving skill as well. You can race in cars, trucks, and even boats.

To save money, BE CAREFUL. Don’t use your real expensive cars when you are doing dangerous jobs. Use your cheaper cars, or buy cheaper cars and use them. Don’t get yourself hurt or arrested, or you’ll be out a LOT of money, and possibly even lose all of your rewards.
