i have $1,256,047. and i still have some missions in staunton island. i have shoreside vale avalable though. but i see no point of money. the only things ive seen to buy are the hospital bill, a measley $1000, and the same price for a police bribe, and a visittothe pay and spray. when i die, i find it quicker to just reload, esp if im on a mission and once i die im far from my target. plus i have o many weapons i dont want to lose them. the most xpensive thing ive bought is 8alls expenses for that one mssion in portland, but when yu pass i you get a $50,000 profit. then there is the rocket launcher, bu thats only $25,000. i get that for one mission. and i already have 80 hidden packages. so im petty close to getting the rocket launcher at my base if i really need it i can go get those packages now. so i just want to know if theres something im missing, because ive never needed to worry about money in this game so far. is there something i need to buy? because it doesnt look that way.

Also keep in mind that you need $500,000 before you can do the final storyline mission. but other than that, money is not that important other than buying weapons(most of which you can get from hidden packages anyway), the pay/spray, hospital/police station when wasted/busted, and a couple of missions that require it as everyone else has said. Hope this helps.

Lame? Yes and no. Consider the alternative. In VC, the open-ended bying of businesses left a lot of players lost. They ALMOST fixed that in SA. I say almost because once the dockside crane is open to you, turning it cars nets you ludicrous amounts of money. Far more than it takes to buy every property in the game. I'm just now playing LCS for the first time and am a LITTLE disappointed that there's not much to spend money on. But considering the alternative... I'm not sure which is worse. With the exceptions of a couple more safehouses/garages, there's not much one could use their money for in GTA3 anyways.

It would be fun though, if there were a bunch of novelty items you could buy. I like that in SA you can buy mods for your cars, and there's always the option to spend lots of money on the casino's and at the track. Clothes are cool too, but they take too long to buy and shift...

 

Maybe a future possibility to buy special vehicles that can't be found on the roads, extra expensive mods such as bullet-proofing (at a very high price of course), big screen TV's for your safehouses and so on. Maybe interiors or items to sell from your businesses, once you own them. In VC and SA they're kinda boring once you've completed the asset missions, although you CAN do trucking and quarry missions again, which is ok.
