Money is always handy in the game, especially if you are fond of purchasing luxurious cars or improving your lifestyle and home conditions with new furniture. In this GTA 5 Investment guide, we will look at the best techniques to earn cash via the Stock Market.
GTA 5 Investment Guide: How To Be Rich In No Time
The Stock Market in Grand Theft Auto 5 can be accessed by using the Internet browser on your smartphone. BAWSAQ and Liberty City National Exchange are the only two stock markets available in the game. With some savvy and seemingly game-breaking investments, players can consistently beat the market and retire after having earned billions.
There are specific methods to get rich with this GTA 5 Investment guide. Firstly, players will need to complete the Stock Market Assassinations, issued by Lester to Franklin, to be able to capitalize on some vital market changes. Some pre- and post-investments made while completing the set of missions by Lester can earn players a fortune in Grand Theft Auto 5.
The order of events is crucial to get the best out of your investments. For example, do not try to invest money after you have taken the Hotel Assassination mission from Lester. This will prevent you from switching to different characters, only allowing you to access Franklin.
Below is a step-by-step guide on how to maximize profits with your investments in GTA 5:
- While playing as Franklin, use the browser to invest all your money in Betta Pharmaceuticals. Repeat the process after switching to Michael and Trevor.
- Take the Hotel Assassination mission from Lester and complete the assassination.
- Jump time by sleeping on the couch for almost 12-18 hours. During this time, the stock price for Betta will jump to almost 50%.
- Sell the Betta stock purchased by all three characters. After that, wait for 35-40 hours.
- Open the stock market and you will notice the Bilkinton (BIL) stock price to be very low. Purchase the stocks with all three characters and fast forward to six days before selling it.
Another investment opportunity is seen immediately after completing the Legal Trouble mission. Following 24 in-game hours, the market stock price of FlyUs Airline will tank. This is another great opportunity to buy as many FlyUs stocks as possible by swapping to all three characters.
- Put all your money on FlyUs after 24 in-game hours following the Legal Trouble mission.
- Continue the main storyline till you reach the end of the Meltdown mission.
- The stock prices of the airlines would’ve gained weight by that time, an ideal time to sell the stocks.
That said, players can still entertain the prospect of taking risks in the game’s stock market by purchasing different stocks. This added dynamic is a favorite of players, who keep returning to the decade-old game. While we have no information if stock markets will be available in GTA 5’s successor, we have an idea of how much will Grand Theft Auto 6 cost.
