I think I'm somewhere around where you are completion wise, but I've been doing a lot of free roam too doing things to make money.

I found you can rob ANY store, even the Barber shops, clothing stores and Ammuntion stores. Even though when you walk in it makes you put your gun away, what you do is walk right back out of the store to the door pushing the door outwards and stand just right out of the door threshold. Pull out your gun and shoot the clerk. Then you can run in with your gun. Use a shotgun to shoot the cash registers and the moneybag will pop out. Most times you won't even get any wanted stars. The Ammuntion stores have TWO cash registers. It's an easy, quick 500-1000 bucks if you are in need of money.

My suggestion is to make sure you have a decently fast car to do this. Use Trevor for this for the best odds.

Haul ass breaking through the military base front gate, make your first RIGHT, then your first LEFT. Take it straight down to the hangar. There is a jet inside the hangar and the hangar will provide better coverage from the tanks. Jump in the jet, full throttle take off and head to the airport hangar you bought with Trevor. Park it inside the hangar and then go get yourself killed. Then the jet will be saved in your hangar. :)


Now, the decision I have to make it do I take the Jet Fighter or my Learjet :D

As said, go ALL IN when Lester tells you a secret on the stocks... I made about 600 grand so far on just the 2 missions I've done by buying all I could, selling after the kill, then buying other stock.

First 2 u want are Beta Pharmaciticals. Then sell that when it goes way up before second mission. Then buy Debionaire Cigaretes. Franklin had 24k or so, now I have 160. I did same with the other 2 characters, u can swap to them before the mission starts and buy the stock. Also right after missions u get money. Buy more stock asap before huge price bump.

I'm tracking the name of the store itself so I would think that's correct. Granted; the in-game time hasn't passed but by roughly 30 min. Did it immediately drop after you hit it? It was still near $100 a share when I logged off last night and showing a profit still. I expected exactly what you saw and be worth somewhere around $40-$50.
