If you’re looking for ways to make extra cash, there are a variety of jobs you can take on in Grand Theft Auto Online.
You can be a security guard, a cashier, a receptionist, a baker, or you can even become a stockbroker. All of these jobs are available for purchase with in-game cash, or real cash if you’re a microtransaction seller.
But before you start making a lot of money, it’s important to realize that some of these jobs aren’t easy. For example, being a baker is very time consuming and requires a lot of training. However, once you’re familiar with the process, it’s not that difficult to bake a cake or two a day. But if you want to make a career out of it, you’ll need to commit to baking daily and may even have to hire assistants to help.
Security Guard
One of the most popular jobs in Grand Theft Auto Online is probably the security guard. Not only does it provide you with a way to make money while doing something you enjoy, but it’s also a great training ground for when you want to become a bounty hunter. With a little effort and perseverance, you can become a pro at stopping burglars and other bad guys from breaking in and stealing your car or whatever else you have in your home when you die.
The thing is, being a security guard in GTAO isn’t as easy as it seems. You’ll need to put in the leg work to learn the ropes, take a test, and then obtain the proper licenses to work in the field. Once you pass the test, you can look for jobs in the community, or you can even start your own security company and employ other players to be your security guards. That way, you can train them and manage the whole process yourself.
Cashier
Another great way to make quick cash in Grand Theft Auto Online is to work as a cashier. All you need is a reliable way to transport cash, a place to store it, and then a way to distribute the cash to customers. Jobs like these can be found in the cashiers’ booth at the corner store, gas station, or restaurant. Simply take orders and ring up sales, keeping track of your cash flow and balancing your books with an accountant.
The downside is that you’ll need to physically be present at the store to work, which means finding a place to live nearby is essential. If you want to be able to get to sleep at night, you’ll need to consider whether or not paying your bills on time is more important than earning an extra buck or two. For some, the financial stress associated with being in debt is worse than the physical stress of committing a crime. Many high-crime areas have become so pricey that some people feel safer staying at home rather than going out. This is presumably because they fear being victim to a crime.
Baker
When someone decides to go into business for themselves, often times they’ll opt for a bakery. Baking is a form of production that’s both accessible and requires less capital investment than most other industries. You can buy all the necessary equipment and ingredients for a small bakery at retail prices, and then scale up from there. If someone decides to open up a bakery in a city, it can be a great place to find jobs, as customers will always need something to munch on while they’re browsing the shelves at the supermarket.
The downside is that you’ll need to put in the leg work to learn the ropes, take a test, and then obtain a license to operate a bakery. Once you pass the test, you can look for jobs in the community or start your own bakery and employ other players to help you run it.
Receptionist
If you’re looking for a job that doesn’t require any previous experience, but you want to make a quick buck, you can try becoming a receptionist. Just say the word “receptionist” and most employers will know what you mean. You’ll simply need to be able to type quick and accurately, listen closely and concisely, and be able to follow directions and procedures. You’ll also need a reliable way to get to work, as there are a lot of clients who can have their calls routed to your desk. Many large organizations with several locations have HR departments that hunt down temporary employees, so if you’re interested, now might be a good time to jump in.
Stockbroker
If you’re looking for a legitimate way to make money, you can try becoming a stockbroker. This job requires an intense amount of studying and practice, as well as a financial background involving stocks, bonds, and other securities. To start, you’ll need to take a test at the end of each quarter to maintain your license, which will then allow you to work as a broker. Once you pass the test, you can look for jobs in the community or start your own company and employ other players to help you run it.
The downside to this career is that it is quite a bit of work, as you’ll need to put in the hours, study, and practice to learn the ropes. Also, unless you have prior experience or are willing to take the time to learn, it’s unlikely you’ll be able to get a job in this field. Many large organizations are now outsourcing their compliance and audit departments, rendering the position of a stockbroker quite obsolete. Still, if you’re looking for a way to make quick cash, now might be a good time to test the waters of this particular career.
Microtransaction Seller
Last but not least, we have the microtransaction seller. This job is a bit like being a stockbroker, but instead of charging others for your services, you’ll be selling virtual goods and currency to players for quick cash (hence the name “microtransaction seller”). The requirements are the same as those for a regular broker, except you’ll also need to know how to set up shop on a marketplace server. There are a lot of opportunities for those who decide to specialize in this field, as it’s one of the most profitable in Grand Theft Auto Online. However, you’ll need to put in the time and effort to learn the ropes, obtain the proper licenses, and then run a successful business. If you’re looking for a way to make money fast and easy, you might want to consider this option as well.
In the end, no matter what you decide to do for cash in Grand Theft Auto Online, as long as you’re doing it legally, you’re assured of making money. But none of these jobs are for the faint of heart. You’ll need to put in the legwork to learn the ropes, take a test, and then obtain a license to work in the field. Once you pass the test, you can look for jobs in the community or start your own business and employ other players to help you run it. But before you start making a lot of money, you need to realize that some of these jobs aren’t easy.
