Originally Posted By Liberty Belle I forget the guy's name ... something Dee. But I feel better now, because I just successfully completed my first hit! Woo-hoo! *ahem* Anyway, most of my money comes from my 'investments' - after you take out my hourly upkeep I'm getting about $14 000 an hour. And, of course, I do the liquor smuggling a couple of times a day. I do fight a few times a day as well but I don't get much money from that ... Ahh. If only this were real money!

I've nearly got enough for the beachfront lot, slowly but surely!

I'm making about $93,000 an hour (after upkeep) and I have about 2 million in the bank. For my jobs I do 2 bank robberies before my energy refills again. LOL, maybe I *should* hold on to my hotels and restaurants and villas
Originally Posted By Ursula Let's see. I have 14.2 mil in the bank. My income is at $49k with about $5k in upkeep. I'm saving for the office to up my income, then I plan on following the HELP'S suggestion of making sure you have one weapon, one car, and one carry-item (like a bullet-proof vest) per mob member. I pop in, do all the jobs I can, fight as many people as I can, then bank the money then pop off. I play in about three minutes every 3 hours or so. I've only made one hit, my fighting record is horrible (I need more weapons) but I'm not sure what to buy in the city after I get my office. I'm guessing the beachfront property, then container yard? And I keep everything and I don't sell a thing! I still have my baseball bat!

My health is at 140, stamina at 4 and energy at 50. I usually do two robberies and come back later, so from now on, I'll attack and immediately bank the money. I pretty much have all the weapons...I noticed that one of the cheaper cars (the BMW?) is not used in ANY of the jobs. I should sell the other car that I needed for the carjacking (or was it liquor store holdup?)...

Originally Posted By Ursula Yes. How many are in your mob? You should have at the least 1 awesome vehicle per member, one awesome gun, one awesome body armor. How are your BOSS stats on defense and attack? These need to be high, too. I get beat up pretty badly by those with 9 members because they have 9 grenade launchers, 9 bearcats and 9 body armours. And I have 43 in my mob now. Go figure. I haven't figured it out completely, but I am making notes of who beats me in fights and what they have in their stockpile.
Originally Posted By Ursula Wait, you just listed you have 33. You have 134 body armour for 33 mob members? I'd buy more of the larger cars to even that out and make sure you have high attack and defense under your BOSS sections.
Originally Posted By Liberty Belle Heh - my income sounds so small compared to you guys (funny world where $14k/ hour sounds small!) Still, by the end of the day I'll be able to buy the beachfront lot and that'll take me over the $20k mark, so that should be good ...
