For anybody who hasn't gotten to the jewelry store heist please pay attention. You will get to choose your partners on this mission. They give you 2 choices for every position, one is cheaper than the other. Do all the expensive ones, I used one guy that was cheaper and he cost me a lot of money because he wrecked out when leaving. Again it only cost 5% more to have the more expensive guy, the cheaper guy wrecked with a million bucks on him. I lost 25% of my money trying to save 5%. Damn me for being cheap.

Awwe shit! I got the expensive hacker and stealth guy but cheap shooter. I'm executing that mission tonight. I want all my coins.

Side note, I love that damn Mustang GT looking car. And I always steal a black one.

I thought it was an all too obvious choice that early in the game to appeal everyone's greed factor setting us up to fail. So I made the more expensive choices and it paid off.

Ok I just talked to my buddy Matt and he did the same damn thing but he told me where I messed up. When the guy wrecks the bike, get off your and walk over and you will pick up the money. So there will be no money lost if you do it that way.

Actually, yeah I was about to say that. I'm pretty sure I remember in the cut scene at the end Franklin says he grabbed the money that the guy dropped. I never got off the motorcycle though. Maybe if you just drive over it it'll get picked up.

BTW: Where do you get parachutes and scuba gear from?

I didn't get to run over mine, he wrecked next to me and I had cops shooting my ass up. So unfortunately I love a million bucks on that job. Don't hire a cheap driver, a friend of mine did that and he said the driver actually stopped twice to look at a map because he was lost and my buddy ended up having to figure out how to get out.

Parachute = cheat.

I bought it cheap (like $18 i think) and proceeded to play crash up derby. The stock started to decline quicker though it was also in a downward spiral to begin with, but it got me thinking; I wonder if I had it all wrong and I should NOT smash into cars lol. I'll try manipulating the market again tonight. A bit more in-game time will tell. So far my bank investments are steadily paying off.
