learn how to make a boatload of money even if you’re playing offline don’t have access
to a rockstar social club account or otherwise can’t access the ballsack exchange in gta 5.
hi and welcome back my name’s Dan i’m an old grumpy gamer grand theft auto is a truly massive
game between gta 5 and the constant updates and rockstar for gta online there’s no shortage of new
content and interesting things to do join me then as we go through a comprehensive guide to making
bank even if you do not have access to the ball sack exchange before we dive in if you’re new to
the channel we do how-to guides news and giveaways so consider subscribing and ring the bell to start
today oh and for this guide i’m going to assume that you will be following the natural progression
of the game for the most part that means following the storyline for whichever character the game
drops you in at the end of a mission and i should note this also supersedes our previous guide so
first things first this guide applies if you’re working your way through gta 5 story mode’s
main quest line and have not done the leicester assassination missions using franklin the jay
norris one carried out by michael doesn’t actually account for this if you’ve already used franklin
to complete all of leicester’s assassination missions you’ve missed the boat on game breaking
money but there’s still a good chance you can make enough money to buy just about everything with
this guide there’s a link in the description below so for this guide i’m going to assume you’ve never
used the in-game stock market before and this is one of your first playthroughs and i don’t want
to harp on but for clarity do not do the leicester assassination missions without your seed funding
and investments in place that means you do not visit the l on the map with franklin
when it becomes available can’t stress it enough also don’t buy any of the businesses yet either
and steer away from vehicle mods clothes and hats too if you already know what you’re doing
with the stock market know how to quickly jump forward in time and know the safe scumming trick
you can jump ahead to the time stamp shown on screen or use a shortcut in the description below
right here the stock market in gta 5 operates like the stock market in real life socks go up
and down based on in-world events announcements and general happenings this can include a market
reaction to a heist the untimely death of a ceo or news from rival companies there’s also some
random fluctuations but we’re not going to worry about those instead we’ll be concentrating on the
major market movers now before we get to the actual stock tips there’s a few things we need
to cover first starting with the basic mechanics around buying and selling stock the stock market
is unlocked not long after michael sorts out jay norris in friend request where we meet ricky to
purchase stock open your phone that’s up on your d-pad for a controller or the up arrow on your
keyboard next head to the internet icon click the money and services tab and let’s get started with
the liberty city exchange or the lcn as you can see there are a number of stocks available the
company name and the current price columns are pretty self-explanatory it’s the price movement
and the average change that we’ll be keeping an eye on movement here determines whether we make
money or lose it on any given trade next up is the ballsack exchange click the gray tab at the top to
access this now if you see a list like this you’re good to go and that means this video isn’t for you
instead you want the full investor guide a link is in the description below if the exchange is not
available or it’s offline this becomes a little more work what we’ll need to do to get the second
exchange working is link your rockstar social club account with your game so if you have a psn or an
xbox live account you should be able to do this by logging into rockstargames.com and selecting
link account from the menu at the top right steam epic and standard pc versions should be
more or less the same but there are links to the official rockstar documentation below once you’ve
done that restart the game and you should be able to access the ballsack exchange if that’s worked
brilliant you should be able to jump across to our full investor guide so you can take
advantage of the exchange and literally break the game’s money system a link is in the description
below if however you still don’t have access to the balsa exchange after all that it’s okay this
guide is specifically for your situation so hold tight assuming you’re good there to purchase any
stock click on it click the green buy button click and hold the green plus button until you have all
the stock you want and normally that means we’ll be purchasing as many as we can click the green
buy button again and once that’s done you’ll see a readout of the purchase with the current price and
your potential profit or loss after that you can exit the internet by clicking the x in the url bar
at the top selling is reasonably straightforward too bring up your phone head to the internet icon
click the money and services tab again click on either lcn or the ball sack it doesn’t matter
but this time we’re clicking my portfolio and if you’re happy with the pricing click
sell all so with that one out of the way there’s two other concepts we need to cover before we
get started firstly jumping forward in this case jumping forward is the practice of advancing game
time without actually having to spend hours on the game itself this is normally done by saving a game
simply go to bed with any character either save or back out without saving and the game advances a
few hours now each character is a little different michael sleeps for six hours when he goes to bed
franklin sleeps for eight and trevor for 12. so if we wanted to say advance one full day in the
game that’s 24 hours we’d need to send trevor to bed twice franklin to bed three times and michael
would need to go to bed four times it’s a bit of a pain in the backside but it’s a whole lot better
than afk for the 48 minutes it would take to hit the same time in game the next trick is called
save scumming and we use it to maximize returns gta story mode has some volatility and a whole
lot of timing built into the market and sometimes that means we can miss our optimal sale price to
avoid this check the price of a stock before you send your character to bed so in this case that
i’m using a random stock edges for the sake of the example we can see the stock i’m looking at is an
all-time high of 13.6 percent profit so let’s save that then advance one day by going to save
then backing out three times because we’re using franklin who sleeps eight hours at a time now we
check the stock again this time it’s gone down a little so we’ll keep at it we’ll advance another
day and this time we have a new all-time high which is a yield around that 14.9 profit so let’s
do a proper safe jumping forward another day we can see a slight dip here i think the 14.9 was a
better return and it’s likely going to be the best we’re going to get so let’s go back to that last
save and sell at that 14.9 mark open your pause menu go to game load game and select the save slot
you just used once the game loads you can open the stock market and sell out most of the time will
be pretty close to that all-time high you sold on this is not quite the way the game is meant
to work but hey we’re actively manipulating the stock market here and it’s all about that return
on investment rightio one more thing to cover before delving into the funding part of this video
maximum cash capacity each character can only and i say only carry a maximum of 2 billion 147
million 483 647 this is likely a system limitation put in place for the xbox and the ps3 versions as
it’s the largest 32-bit number that can exist if the value of your shares exceed this when you come
to the last mission or two you’ll only be able to cash in some of your stock if this is the case you
can spend up then withdraw more later so not to worry okay the next thing we need to do is build
some seed capital after all it takes money to make money most of our early game opportunities for
raising capital are available after hood safari which is the one where trevor meets anthony’s and
gives her seven dollars it’s also the one where we visit cj’s old place for any san andreas fans out
there you’ll also need to have completed the merryweather heist where trevor accidentally
steals an experimental weapon so let’s start with michael open your phone and search for
epsilon click on the epsilon program website and start the survey this will start the epsilon
institute quest line which will leave michael on quite a journey conveniently we’ve made a set of
guides on how to get through these missions the links are in the description below once you’ve
made it all the way through the questline to the final mission unknowing the truth still the money
from aj gives you netting you 2.1 million in seed money and properly starting our journey
moving over to franklin next first up we want to head to this part of the map to trigger the
bike theft random event now don’t worry too much about the footage we definitely want to do this
with franklin soon after returning the bike franklin will receive 100 000 in stock which
you should sell immediately next head to the sonar collection stock on the western side of the map
with the money from the jewellery store job and the shares from the mountain bike franklin should
have just enough money to purchase the dock once that’s done jump in the sub and collect 30 lots of
nuclear waste to put an additional 690 000 in the kitty plus get a refund on your original purchase
price right over to trevor next now trevor already has some money so we’re just giving him a bit of a
top-up starting with the sonar collection stock that franklin just purchased head to the dock
jump in the dinghy and head to this point on the map now i know the footage shows franklin here
but we definitely want to do this one with trevor once you close dive down and dig amongst the reeds
in front of this aircraft hull there’s still an old marker for the secret money briefcases that
were removed a while back if you can find it there’s an additional 12 000 for your trouble
after that head to this strangers and freaks marker to start the vinewood souvenirs side
quests with nigel and mrs thornhill these are a bit of fun too and nowhere near as tedious as
those submarine collections when you get to the last mission of the questline the last act where
you go to dispose of al dinopoly on the way to the drop-off al will offer you a bribe wait until
the second offer of ten thousand dollars and then drop him off sticking with trevor you should have
received a message from maud by the time we get to this point head to the freaks and strangers
marker here and maude will give you four bounties to collect bring each of them in alive for an
additional forty thousand dollars in total heading to the base of the outros camp next we’ll find
this odd scene an approximation of a scene from no country for old men we will be able to finish off
the remaining participants and collect an easy 25 grand and the final round of series a funding can
be collected by completing the altruist challenge itself this is where you drop off four poor souls
to the outros camp where it’s strongly suspected these cannibals will make soup of them i typically
pick the most morally dubious characters to drop off and as always there is a complete guide
available in the description below and that’s it for trevor it’s worth noting that you shouldn’t
worry about any of the other businesses most of them lose money and the mckenzie airfield hangout
will take around about four hours of grinding before you even break even let alone turn a
profit and that’s it for early prep with all this done michael should be sitting on a little under
three million with franklin around the million mark and trevor sitting on about 330 grand
okay so now it’s time for our first investment we’re starting with bilkington under the bet
code now the great thing is this is all percentage based rather than pricing that means that we can
do these in any order and the returns will be more or less the same also prices change from
play through to play through the percentages will remain on par between games though start by doing
a hard save of your game that’s where we send the character to bed and create a new save file as
opposed to the regular auto save or just going in and backing out next we need to confirm that your
game isn’t bugged which happens maddeningly often head to the stock exchange on your phone find
bill kington that’s bil on the lcn exchange and purchase one share one share exit out and
go to bed and immediately back out then check your phone again if the share’s there your game is fine
if not your game is bugged and you may need to refer to this guide or check out the video in
the description below on how to fix it assuming your game stock market is fine sell the share
back and head to the l on the map with franklin to trigger the first real assassination mission
complete the assassination then head back to the safe house and any character will do but trevor
has the longest sleep time and will therefore take the fewest jumps using the sleep trick advance
time a couple of times we want to jump ahead around about two in-game days and in that time the
price of bill kington that’s bil will tank buy the stock and then forward yourself another six days
this is a bit tedious i know but once you get there you should be able to sell your stock
for roughly 110 to 140 games continuing on with the regular storyline not worrying about any of
the other leicester missions the next investment opportunity needs a little bit of forward planning
so after franklin and trevor complete eye in the sky and that’s the one where we steal the car
using the police chopper load up each character with ammo so you can go without cash for a bit
and then buy evangelico that’s vag a few missions later after minor turbulence and that’s where
trevor boards are playing uh with a plane and then leaves via four wheel drive vangelico will spike
netting you a profit of between 40 and 50 now i’ve not tested this but commenter toby does r6
mentioned that they held off selling until after the polito score and ended up making a whopping 85
on this sale again i’ve not tested it but it’s worth a crack if you want okay a few missions
later we have an opportunity to give trevor a bit of a top-up too once you’ve completed the mission
predator where you hunt down some of the o’neill boys using a sniper rifle from a chopper a new
strangers and freak’s mission will unlock for franklin where you do a triathlon against mary
ann quinn after you’ve completed the triath immediately swap from franklin to trevor and
then head to this location near where the end of the race was once you’re there you’ll see
a new random encounter rescue the young lady and drop her off and a little while later trevor will
receive a sixty thousand dollar reward our next investment opportunity isn’t quite as lucrative
but it’s still worth the effort once you’ve completed surveying the score it’s all up again
and we’ll need to go through three missions this time then purchase group sex that’s g r u continue
the storyline until you complete fresh meat where franklin rescues michael from chang weighing about
12 to 36 in-game hours for a profit of between 15 and 20 after that you can work your way through
the regular storyline until you’ve completed the finale once you have completed the finale and
this works regardless of which ending you choose although we will stick with the canon ending for
this so once you’ve completed one of the endings and you’ve received the union depository funds
from leicester invest in augury insurance that’s aug immediately whose stock has tanked due to the
heist wait two to three in-game days then divest for around 100 in gains okay assassinations next
where the real gains start but before they do make sure franklin is geared up with
sniper rifle ammo and a suppressor heavy automatic ammo and rpg ammo prior to the second leicester
mission the multi-target assassination remembering the hotel assassination was first sink your funds
into debonair that’s deb once submission’s been completed wait 18 to 24 in-game hours then sell
for around 40 to 50 more than your original purchase price once that’s complete wait for
redwood that’s rwc to dip which typically takes 24 to 36 in-game hours yolo all three characters on
that wait another three to four days in game and exit at about 300 percent the degenerates over
at wall street bets would be proud unfortunately i don’t have anything for the vice assassination
as both stocks use the ball sack exchange so no did i send this one same goes for the bus
assassination sadly no cash can be made on this one while you’re offline but we do have a win for
the final assassination mission the construction assassination prior to starting purchase gold
coast development or gcd once the construction mob boss has been squared away wait one to two in-game
days and exit your position with roughly 43 to 59 profit and that’s it thanks for watching check out
the video at the top for a guide to making money with leicester or the one down the bottom for some
more old grumpy game of goodness stay safe wash your hands and we’ll see you in the next video
you
