hi in this video we're doing an update to  our gta 5 story mode investor guide where  

you'll learn how to make so much money  the game literally won't be able to cope

hi and welcome back my name's Dan and 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 breaking  

the stock market in gta 5 story mode and earning  more than 6.4 billion dollars between your three  

characters before we dive in if you're new to the  channel we do how-to guides news and giveaways so  

consider subscribing and ringing the bell stay up  to date oh and for this guide i'm going to assume  

you'll 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 save scumming trick you can jump ahead to the  

time stamp shown on screen or use the shortcut  in the description below right here the stock  

market in gta 5 operates like the stock market in  real life stocks 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  bolsac exchange click the gray tab at the  

top to access this now if you see a list like  this you're good to go 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 balsa exchange now after all that  

if you're still not able to get onto the balsack  exchange then you need to jump over to this video  

instead which expressly deals with offline trades  only as always links in the description below  

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  

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 quest line 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 dollars 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 maude 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 time to get down to brass tax investments  now the first and one of the most important  

things is if you are driving around this part  of the map and see this guy asking for a ride  

do not pick him up instead head to the other side  of the road and deliberately avoid triggering the  

start of that random encounter he'll give us a  stop tip that yields somewhere between 25 and 30  

and we want to save that for a bit later on in  the play through now it's time for our first  

investment starting with better pharmaceuticals  under the bet code now the great thing is  

prices change from play through to play through  the percentages remain on par between games  

though start by doing a hard save of your game  that's where we send your character to bed and  

actually create a new save file as opposed to the  regular auto save or just backing out and next  

we'll confirm your game isn't bugged which happens  maddeningly often head to the stock exchange  

on your phone and find it better that's bet on  the ball sack exchange and purchase one share  

one share exit out go to bed and immediately  back out then check your phone again if the  

share is 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  to fix it assuming your game stock market is fine  

sync all of your money into better for all three  characters once you're done swap back to franklin  

and head to the l on the map which will trigger  the first leicester assassination complete the  

mission and then head back to the safe house  either franklin or michael will do here using the  

sleep trick advance time a couple of times we want  to jump ahead around 12 to 18 hours once that's  

done you should see the price jump around 50 sell  on all three characters jump forward another one  

and a half days so trevor's your best bet for this  one 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  

gains 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 60 000  

reward our next investment opportunity isn't quite  as lucrative but it's still worth the effort once  

you've completed surveying the score tall 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 now remember that fella  at the start of the video i said to avoid like the  

play it's time to work his lead invest everything  you have all three characters into tinkle that's  

tnk on the ball sack exchange then grab a fast  car it needs to be a fast car and head to the  

pedestrian overpass near the beach to trigger this  random encounter once you've dropped off our new  

friend at the airport head back to your house and  then advance time by around 24 hours by sleeping a  

few times after that you should be able to sell  for around about 30 profit 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 sync 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 the third  last mission and the vice assassination won't  

quite net the same gains as the last one but it  all helps start by purchasing fruit that's frt  

once submission is complete sell for 22 to 26  profit then immediately purchase facade or fac  

wait another three to four in-game days and sell  this should bring you around about 32-ish percent  

gain next up is the fourth leicester assassination  mission the bus assassination this time around we  

can jump straight in no pre-mission investments  needed once the target's downed wait for vapid  

that's vap to dip and purchase as much stock as  you can with all three characters wait around  

three to four in-game days and then sell and this  should net you a tidy 95 to 100 profit and for our  

final major trade we're in to leicester's last  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 with that you should have more money than  the game can handle time to go out and buy  

well everything and that's it thanks for  watching check out the video at the top  

for a guide to making money without 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
