Newb requires tips on making money, paying in thank yous

[MikeTower]

Hi, guys. So here is the deal. I am a level 65 player with 1.6 mil $GTA and a long-term goal of getting MOC and customizing my Insurgent Pick-Up. What way/s of making cash would you suggest? I have a life so I cannot spend whole days on the game. When I play it, I mostly play it with my friend who already owns a few businesses (Weed, Bunker, Hangar). Activities we like the most are heists, those business jobs and pvp (Stockpiles, Juggernaut etc).

 

I have heard that mixing MC business and VIP stuff works best, but it sounds like a headache and a chore - plus very expensive to get both. I am looking for the way/s that is more chilled out. I do not have to make loads of money all the time, I just want to make it at a reasonable pace. I know that heists pay well, and I do them often. I also often help out my friend with supply runs and deliveries. What else would you suggest?

Double 2x RP $ Playlist with ALL 7 Lamar's Contact Missions.

I earned over $8,000,000+ since last Tuesday.

I have a weird issue with contact missions not popping up for me. I did the first "tutorial" mission and Lamar's Lowrider's, but neither me nor my friend get any of the missions from neither Lamar, Gerald, Martin & others T_T. I will try to deal with it, though - already have a few ideas on what to do. Thanks for the tip. Anyone else?

Use the latest and greatest of glitches on 7s to buy stuff for free

 

It seems glitching has become accepted by the community so go nuts and just buy everything without having to play the game.

Manually "pop up" the contact missions. Go to the online tab in game, then to jobs, then to rockstar created, and finally to missions. There's a list of the contact missions you can trigger from there. I did a 6 mission playlist because lost mc rip is still glitched for me, and I enter the yellow marker every time. I'm not sure what level you need to be at for each of Lamars contact missions but 65 should be alright and other contact missions that unlock as you rank up, are added to that list.

Can I complete these missions on Normal/Hard just with me & my friend, or do I need randoms' help? I'd rather stick just with her.

No, you don´t need any randumbs. But keep an eye on the mission. some of them need more than one player. Double rotor as an example needs atleast 2 to start.

[MikeTower]

Okay, thanks. These all seem to be good advices. Me and her will surely be busy with contact missions for a while now. What after that, though? Should we just stick to doing heists, contact missions and supply/delivery runs for her businesses? What would you suggest that I get into? Buy a cheap MC clubhouse and then go straight for bunker > MOC > sweet Insurgent Pink-up Custom?

I was gonna just post a link to the exact same thread someone started last week, but what the hell someone is just gonna start another one in a few days.

 

HEY GUYS I'M NEW HERE HOW DO I MAKE MONEY

 

Do what I did, rob liquor stores, race, and do contact missions for a year, then get fed up and buy a shark card and start duping. Or you can join a crew and do heists like you were addicted to World of Warcraft again. Takes some dedication either way. You at least need to able to use a search function. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

As soon as OP said he had a life, this is what went through my mind.

 

 

 

Seriously, no one said you didn't have one. But automatic defense like that, hmm...insecure bro?

Right now there's double money on transform races and if you're good you can earn a decent amount of money plus you'll get lots of rp.

Thanks for suggesting that I cheat. Next you will tell me that I should spend that money on a jet and start griefing people for keks and lols.

 

As for actually helpful tips, thanks. I guess I now know what I wanted to.

 

Oh, and this.

First of all, f*ck you, second of all, make/suggest making a thread like that a stickie instead of complaining.

You don't deserve any tips. None. Nada. Zilch.

I've refrained myself from posting the whole inventory of "how I make real money in GTA" for the year 2017 only.

 

make money site:gtaforums.com

 

The same threads are on reddit.

 

Just stick to heists, try to find peoples who are willing to heist on regular basis, try to join a crew that focuses on heists, then pass your Criminal Master Mind, you will get $12Mio, enough to buy the bunker, the MOC, to customize Insurgent, to fast track a good proportion of the stupid Bunker's technologies.(fast tracking every item = 11Mio something).

 

 

"Buy a cheap MC clubhouse and then go straight for bunker > MOC > sweet Insurgent Pink-up Custom?"

No.

 

Open Interaction menu, choose SecuroServ, register as VIP. You don't need a MC Clubhouse to access to Bunker computer. Ok? No MC Clubhouse.

I have created my own thread so that I could get tips specifically tailored to someone who cannot spend long hours in one sit at the game - hence the "I have a life" bit. I have seen threads like that, but the ones I've seen seemed to focus on people who have much more spare time. All those "do supply run, then VIP work, then supply run, then crates something" stuff which may work great but is not for me. And yeah, heists seem like a solid choice of income. I've already found a few people to do them with.

Sure I do not. No one who comes here does. But I received a few helpful ones anyway, thanks to people being kind enough to spend a minute of their time on me. Unlike you, who just harass me.

Hello MikeTower

 

tip: buy cheapest CEO office and cheapest import export garage.

You'll make 80k a car if you only sell top range cars (leave low and midrange cars in your garage)

 

Buy a Buzzard asap to speed up your travel time

[MikeTower]

And what do you guys think about VIP missions? From what I read online, 20-25k for 10-15 minutes of work on an invite-only session sound like a very good profit. I could do them faster with Buzzard, but I feel like hoarding until i get a CEO office and warehouse/garage.

Vip headhunter pays 30k and can be done fast with buzzard

yeah vip/ceo stuff is good.

 

and btw those are good afk mission (if u lag yourself of to empty loby)

 

Executive Search -25k / 10m

 

Fortified (armored boxville) - 35k / 10m

 

Piracy Prevention (yacht) - 30k / 10m

Since when has HH paid $30k?

[Mistermilan07]

Sorry its 20k

[MikeTower]

How difficult will those be without a Buzzard? I have Insurgent, so I'll have much firepower when playing with a friend, but otherwise I have no Buzzard nor armoured Kuruma.

[kidtwist81]

Mike, honestly just make friends in the game and you will soon find it is fun as a group. You are limited by not having friends because some of the best paid pass-times require 4 people.

 

if you are truly just a regular casual player who doesnt care about the rate of pay you make in the game then stick to doing the things that are fun for you at the time. If you exhaust your playtime endlessly repeating the same chore/task over and over again because it pays well soon you will be sick of it. If you get sick of it it no longer becomes a game and it becomes a soulless grind and you wake up one morning realising you've gained a full on neckbeard and you are a shade of your former self.

 

If you want to make money I would suggest investing your current money in a CEO office (cheap one) and the vehicle warehouse (cheapest one) and get all of the mid and standard range cars stocked up. You need 20 cars. Beyond that all of the cars you get will be top end all of the time. Whilst filling the garage initially with said cars look to sell off (right away) any high end cars you get as you will make the 100k (80k profit) back from what you laid out in the initial circumstance. As you finally reach the 20 car mark (standard and mid range) you will start to see only the top range cars then be sourced but as youre still in game sourcing these cars you will also be counting down the cooldown on the next sale.

 

This will provide you with some distraction from the grind but after a while it too can get repetitive and samey.

 

In the meantime you can do jobs from the playlists - search these on the R* site - or create your own playlist. For contact jobs you need to go as others stated into the jobs menu and manually select the job(s) you want to run. I would go into them and do all of the double RP/$ ones for whatever week it is and then when youve completed all of them you can make them into your own playlist and run them to your hearts content. I did these for Lamar and made about $1-200k a time per 7 missions or so (i forget the exact amount) but after 3 runs through it started to get stale.

 

The good news is that after running this playlist you also then have time to let your vehicle cool down continue and also any business supplies get used up.

 

The key here is variety to stop it being a chore.

 

If youve done all of this and you still have time to spare for gaming then VIP missions and the various headhunter/sightseer/whatever else floats your boat Again the key here is to make it fun. if you and your friend are both enjoying yourselves then the game is serving its purpose. If youre not then log off and do something else tbh.

 

Lastly the key to all of this is having likeminded people to enjoy the experience with. If you are looking for other people who arent complete edgelords or neckbeards and only want to grief/glitch their way through GTA or HRHRDERPIHAZJET!!!!11 in every lobby then feel free to add me to friends list as I have been collecting friends in my rockstar social for a couple of weeks now and have made about 30 so far. About half of them are active at least once or twice a week so youd be welcome to join us if we go and heist or whatever else we get on with in a particular day/session.

 

 

cheers

How difficult will those be without a Buzzard? I have Insurgent, so I'll have much firepower when playing with a friend, but otherwise I have no Buzzard nor armoured Kuruma.

 

sightseer just requires a car, headhunter just requires a small amount of killing and tbh you can solo crew your insurgent for that. If you dont have a kuruma I would get one purely for the PVE missions, it is a godsend.

 

If you haven't unlocked it yet then get yourself a cheap tier 3 apartment and run the fleeca job and then it will become unlocked I think (or discounted if its already available - im not sure how that is now as I have had my GTA online account since release on xbox 360).

Hey I'm providing you options. I'm a veteran gta player. Do u want to suffer the endless grind that we all been doing for 3 years now.

[Mistermilan07]

I only tried headhunter and sightseeer once without a buzzard and I sûcked at it.

If you would own an armoured kuruma (+ ap pistol) you could use it to grind contact missions

[kidtwist81]

I think the problem is your options are absolute drivel.
