Welcome to what will hopefully become an engaging series of articles on TFW Magazine. The purpose of these articles is to delve into the various ways that you can earn money in Grand Theft Auto Online. It’s never easy finding passive income streams in this day and age, but with the right guidance, it’s definitely possible. This will be the first in a series of several articles that will look into several different methods of generating extra cash in GTA Online. Hopefully by the end of this series, you’ll have a variety of alternatives that you can pursue to make the most out of your time spent in GTA Online.
Saving Money Through Monetizing Your Social Media Accounts
One of the simplest, yet most effective ways of earning quick cash in GTA Online is to monetize one’s social media accounts. Anyone with a significant social media presence can easily make a few hundred or thousand dollars per month just from adverts on their various platforms. Twitter has created a handy little tool for this exact purpose called ‘Affiliates’. When you enter your account information and click on ‘Get Started’ you’ll be presented with a list of potential adverts that can be targeted at an audience that corresponds with your interests. Chances are, you’ll find a few adverts that you’re interested in trying out. Once you do, you’ll simply need to click on the ‘GET STARTED’ button under each ad to begin earning money from retweets, favorites, and replies. You can also choose to have your tweets displayed as text ads (called ‘Dynamic Tweets’) to have your content promoted on a paid basis. The more you engage with your followers, the more they’ll value your opinions and hopefully, your money.
Making Money on The Oasis Marketplace
Another great place to make money in GTA Online is the Oasis Marketplace. Like the previously mentioned Twitter tool, the Oasis Market place allows you to easily find online markets that correspond with your niche. For example, if you are an attorney, you can look for ‘legal’ markets such as intellectual property, contracts, and more. When you find a market that you want to participate in, simply click on the ‘OLDER’ button to see a variety of offers ranging from $5 to $500+. If you decide that you want to participate in a market, simply click on the ‘ADD TO BAG’ button to move forward to the next screen where you’ll see a variety of terms and conditions for that market. Once you’ve found a market that you’d like to participate in, simply click on the ‘AGREE’ button to continue. This button will be denoted by a green color to indicate that it’s ‘active’. After you’ve agreed to the terms and conditions, you’ll be presented with a captcha (a clickable image that serves to verify that you are a human and not a robot) for the Oasis Marketplace. Simply click on the image to continue to the next screen.
On this screen you’ll see a variety of available payment methods including bitcoin, eco, and cash. Currently, only Bitcoin is accepted on the Oasis Marketplace. If you decide to use this form of payment, you’ll need to sign up with Bitpay since there is no other option of payment available at this time. After you’ve signed up with Bitpay, you’ll need to verify your account by sending them a photo of your ID. After this, you’ll be able to make your first purchase, which is $1,000. This minimum purchase will be displayed in green at the top of the screen.
From there, you’ll just need to click on the ‘My Account’ button to see your available balance and perform any necessary transactions. To make a sale, click on the ‘Sell’ button next to an item that you want to sell. From there, you can set your selling price, which can be improved by clicking on the ‘Seller’s Market’ button.
Purchasing Loot Boxes to Get Greater Item Drops
A common question that many people have when it comes to GTA Online is “how do I make money?” One of the best sources of income in GTA Online is through the dispense of loot boxes. There are many varieties of these boxes that can be acquired for cash, or you can choose to have them dropped by hostile vehicles or animals. The more you play, the greater your chances of obtaining these loot boxes which contain in-game items. Some of these items are worth a lot of money, while others are worthless; it depends on the in-game economy and how much you want for the item. If you want to make money quickly, it’s advised that you purchase these boxes from a seller on the Internet since they will almost assuredly have the desired item in them. You’ll also need to be aware that these items are randomly inserted into the game, so you’ll have to be prepared to obtain them quickly or sell them for a profit.
Daily Missions For Cash
Another great way to earn money in GTA Online while having fun is to participate in daily missions. These are relatively straightforward tasks that you can do for rewards that vary from $5,000 to $50,000. The only requirement for these missions is that you need a reliable way to transport yourself to the location in which you have to perform the task. For example, if you decide that you want to earn money by delivering mail, you can search for ‘mail delivery’ in the local area where you are and click on the first listing to get started. You’ll then be presented with a map with the location of your first delivery along with the location of your next delivery. Simply follow the directions and you’ll be able to complete the mission.
Investing In Stocks
Another great way to make money in GTA Online is to invest in stocks. This is a form of passive income that you can generate based on how much you invest (the more you invest the greater your chances of generating a profitable return). To begin, you’ll need to create a stock portfolio. Once you’ve done this, you can start buying and selling stocks as they rise and fall in value. For example, you can buy a piece of Apple stock since it has recently risen in value and is still relatively ‘cheap’ compared to other tech companies. You can use your iPhone to monitor the stock prices as they change throughout the day. When the price goes up, you buy more shares; when the price goes down, you sell some of your stock to cover your losses. The beauty of this strategy is that you can continue to do this indefinitely as long as you have capital to invest and the desire to keep generating income.
Become A Landlord
If you want to be able to generate substantial income in GTA Online, the best way to do so is to become a landlord. You will need to purchase a nice house in a desirable location, then fill it with tenants who will pay you rent. The amount of rent that you can charge per week varies from $500 to $10,000, depending on how luxurious you want your rental property to be. You’ll also need to make sure that you are legally allowed to be a landlord in your area since this is a highly contentious subject around the country.
Selling Drugs
Another great way to make money in GTA Online is to sell drugs. This is an easy way to earn quick cash, especially if you’re selling large quantities. The amount of money that you can make depends on how much you want for the drugs. If you want to be able to generate a large amount of cash, you can purchase the drugs from a supplier on the black market for a fairly large sum. You can then re-sell these drugs for a profit or directly to a customer.
The key to being able to sell drugs is to find a way to get the items into your possession. If you’re driving around looking to sell drugs, you’ll inevitably be pulled over and arrested if you have more than five grams in your possession. This is why it’s best to find a supplier who can get the items to you in a reliable manner. Finding a supplier is fairly easy since there are many websites that act as a marketplace for drug-related items. If you decide that you want to participate in this form of income generation, make sure that you do so legally and responsibly by conducting your business in an area that is controlled/monitored by police.
