Best Ways To Make Money as a Solo Player in GTA Online

hey boys it's arm none today we're going to be going over the 10 best ways to make money as a solo player in Grand Theft Auto online after the bottom dollar bounties DLC has come out now with this DLC we have yet another new business in Grand Theft Auto online so I thought it was a good time to update my top 10 best ways to earn money as a solo player in GTA Online there have also been some slight Nerfs to other businesses as well as there have have been some pretty major improvements to other businesses if you enjoy the video a like is of course appreciated if not dislike let's go for 50,000 likes on this video just because why not if we could hit that that'd be crazy consider subscribing if you enjoy my content I'm trying to hit 300,000 subscribers this year and I need your help to do so so if you enjoy this consider subscribing let's go ahead and start off with number 10 with the release of the new Bottom Dollar bounties DLC in GTA Online we have got a new business the Bail Enforcement business now for this business to make money it is almost entirely dependent on you putting time into the business meaning that you have to do all of the Bounties in order to make significant money there's one high value Target per real life day as well as three lower value targets that get replaced every in-game day as well the high value Target will pay roughly $130,000 for capturing them while the lower value targets are typically valued at around $40,000 this can range you know maybe 35 to $45,000 depending on the Target and the mission that goes along with it however if you do kill the Bounty Target the payout will be next to nothing so do keep this in mind and make sure to bring them in alive there is one more way to make money with this business and that is with the bail office workers they will cost you $750,000 each and you can have a total of two of them they reduce the processing time for the Bounty targets that you bring in yourself processing time starts at 24 minutes then drops to 12 with one worker and then drops to six with both bail office workers this means that you just get paid sooner after you drop off a bounty Target so it doesn't really really matter for this aspect however you can also send these workers out to do bounty targets and when they return after 48 minutes each they will bring with them a payment ranging from $5 to $110,000 and it will be deposited into the safe that is found within the bottom dollar bouny Bail Enforcement business money per hour wise it's not very good but if it interests you I'd say I would recommend trying this business out and I do think it fits into GTA online really well I think it's an interesting business at the least just in terms of money per hour it's not the best but not everything is about money per hour and number nine we have the hanger The Hanger business has had some pretty big and pretty significant changes to it over the last few years taking it from being one of the worst businesses in the entire game to one that's actually you know somewhat worth doing it's not a bad business over overall with the ls mercenaries DLC there's been some big changes to make it a little bit better you can now operate the business as a groundbased business instead of being heavily reliant on aircraft and they've also added rooster who can passively Source you cargo similar to the CEO crate warehouses except he doesn't operate as effectively because airf Freight Cargo Works differently where you have to sell one type of goods at a time and he will get you a random type of goods so if you're focusing on one particular type of cargo and he brings you another type it's going to cause a few problems now they also have changed things with the drug wars DLC where they tripled the value of airf Freight Cargo crates making them about $330,000 a piece instead of just $10,000 that they were previous to all the changes and they also buffed them so that if you sell in bulk with only one type of cargo you will get a huge bonus for doing so the sale missions still mostly suck especially the aerial ones however the ground missions are a little bit better overall The Hanger is actually a pretty good business in GTA Online at as of the bottom dollar poundies DLC it hasn't had any significant changes with this update or any changes at all really but it is still a pretty good business and it is one that I would recommend just not as much as some of the businesses ahead of it on this list obviously at number eight we have the MC businesses now the MC businesses have been buffed in Grand Theft Auto online to pay roughly 25% more money ever since the release of the expanded and enhanced version of Grand Theft Auto online but with the release of the bottom dollar bounty DLC in GTA Online they've actually allowed us to have 50% more time when we launch sale missions as a solo player so this is a pretty big Improvement for those of us that play solo which is obviously why I'm talking about it in this video they've also given us some new salale maiones with the previous few updates which occasionally are pretty good and you'll only actually have one vehicle with some of them unfortunately you still do run the risk of getting delivery Vans or trash trucks as a sale Mission but the chance is lower than before because we have more chances for more different types of missions now the best of all the MC businesses is of course the coke lockup followed by the lab as well as the counterfeit cash Factory then weed and then of course document forgery now document forgery is not really worth it at all no matter what it really sucks as an MC business and just as a business in general I would avoid it at all costs I simply do not think it is worth it and even though it does give you some product in the nightclub basement you should just sell the nightclub basement once you're full on South America Imports anyways so yeah just avoid the document forgery business at all costs it really really sucks at number seven we have the autoshop the auto shop has a bunch of different ways that you can make money included with the purchase of the business you can customize customer cars to their liking and deliver them which you can also hire staff members to do passively and that has been buffed with some of the last updates to GTA online making it so that they actually can make you some good money you can also run autoshop contracts which act as sort of a mini Heist and they pay between I'd say about 180 to 300 maybe a little bit over $300,000 depending on the contract that you do and when they go on double or triple money they are very very good to do and they can definitely net you a huge amount of profit and they don't take very long only about 20 minutes per and the better you get at them the shorter it's going to take now with this business you also get access to the Exotic exports list which your car is marked by the little blue dots that will pop up on your mini map while you're driving around in Los anges you can simply get in these and drive them down to the docks and deliver them for about $20,000 not too bad I'd say the worst part about the whole business is Canta and kdj because they're just really annoying characters similar to most characters in GTA Online to be honest the absolute worst thing and really the only thing that's bad about them is the sound that comes out of their mouths they the words these people speak are just unbelievable so just ignore that and you'll be totally fine number six we have CEO cargo this does require you to own a CEO office before you can get started and this business also does take a lot of time and quite a bit of money to make a lot of money with it but the rewards are very very worth it this business has also been changed with the bottom dollar bounties DLC to fix a sale Mission which previously was impossible to complete and that was of course the Titan sale where you're dropping off cargo at a bunch of marked flares on the ground sometimes you wouldn't be able to drop the cargo and it would result in a failed sale however they have fixed this so that is very good now within all of your warehouses after the criminal Enterprises DLC you now have workers and you can pay them $7,500 and they will Source between 1 to three crates of special cargo over the course of 48 minutes and then you can rinse and repeat this over and over again and they also have a 1% chance to Source a special item which can be worth about $100,000 by itself sale missions range from one to three vehicles depending on how full your warehouses are but all of the vehicles are relatively fast and drop off aren't typically too far away and you also have 30 minutes for most of the sale missions with this business overall it's a very easy one to run as a solo player it just is going to take a while but once you get it going you will make a ton of money over the course of owning it next up at number five we have the acid lab to get the acid lab for free you have to complete the initial six last dose missions from the Los s angos drug wars DLC now once you've completed these you will steal and drive a brickade 6x6 to the freak shop where you can then set up your acid lab inside of it for $750,000 then to unlock the equipment upgrade you will need to complete 10 Dax fooligan missions and in between these they have a cool down which is a super pain in the ass but once you've done this for an additional 250k you'll be able to buy that equipment upgrade with the equipment upgrade this business becomes extremely profitable and it actually becomes one of the best businesses in the entire game it makes full stock in Just 4 hours and you can also access a boost within the acid lab that will double production for half an hour the payout will be about $335,000 and considering that the resupplies only cost you 60k this is actually pretty good and on top of this you can also name your asset product and that will net you an additional 5% on the sale total totaling at about almost $355,000 so the acid lab is pretty good and on top of it you do get a really good armored vehicle in fact the acid lab is actually the second most armored vehicle in the entire game which is pretty darn good but probably the best thing about the a lab is the fact that you will always get a single vehicle sale Mission and the sale missions are usually very easy with the acid lab business so that is an additional bonus next up at number four we have the bunker now the bunker takes a lot of money to start up but once you get it going it is a really really good business to have in GTA Online and with the release of the bottom dollar bounties DLC it has been updated to give you a little bit more time when selling as a solo player similar to how the MC businesses have also been helped out in that regard instead of getting 15 minutes for most of the sale missions now you get 222 minutes which is very very helpful for selling as a solo especially selling a bunker that has multiple vehicles in the saale mission there's also one 30 minute sale Mission that you can get with the bunker and this will obviously increase that to a 45 minute saale Mission so that does help a lot now the strategy to to use the bunker as a solo player is firstly to buy all the upgrades and then buy some supplies and then you can buy one time and sell however with the change that has been done with the bottom dollar bounties DLC I would say you could pretty easily Supply the bunker twice if not three times and still get most of the sale missions done within that 22 and 1/2 minute time frame I would honestly advise you to probably just go for two supplies and then sell and then just rinse and repeat that I don't think it's worth doing three supplies necessarily because if you get three dune buggies you're pretty much cooked there's almost no way you're going to be able to sell that even within the new 50% extra time frame that you are going to get with the bunker the bunker turns a full bar of supplies into money in Just 2 hours and 20 minutes so if you do two resupplies that's going to be 4 hours and 40 minutes and then sell and you will make $420,000 for that it's a pretty good semi- passive business to have and it does also allow you to unlock bunker research which you can use to research cool items like the upgrades for the dclassy weaponized Tampa for example or the Insurgent pickup custom as well definitely a really good business overall definitely one that I would recommend owning and definitely make sure to get The Farmhouse location because it is by far the best the chumosh is a good secondary option if you have a little bit less money but The Farmhouse bunker is truly the best location for this business next up at number three we have the agency the agency is one of truly the best businesses in the entire game it has three main ways of earning money the first of those being the contract heist with Dr Dre you could bang this out in about 1 hour if you're really good but it's probably going to take the average player about one and a half hours at least the first time that you play it and it will pay you out $1 million for completing it which is pretty damn good and it also doesn't have a cool down so you can run it back over and over and over again this is pretty good and honestly in my opinion it almost outperforms the K Paro Heist just because of the fact that it has no cooldown this business also though comes with Security Contracts which will pay you an upfront amount of money for completing a task and the best ones to do are gang termination recover valuables and rescue operation the rest are kind of long and miserable but the next best after those is the liquidized assets security contract these will pay you between $30,000 to maybe $80,000 depending on the contract that you complete and it is pretty much random as to how much it is going to pay you usually gang termination contracts pay a little bit less usually rescue operations pay a little bit more but it kind of depends on what the mission itself is going to be now also the amount of Security Contracts that you've completed tallies up and the more that you've done the more money that will come into your safe that is within the agency completely passively so for example if you've completed 11 Security Contracts you'll get $11,000 into your safe every 48 minutes of real time or every in-game day in GTA Online if you've completed 101 you will get 10 $10,000 every 48 minutes and this does max out at 20 Security Contracts completed or $20,000 every 48 minutes of real time now the safes capacity is 250k so with this business once you got your Security Contracts completed it is a very good one to have for afking and you can make a ton of money doing this and once you've completed your security contracts don't worry you can keep doing Security Contracts because they pay pretty decently and a lot of the time they are relatively easy missions overall the agency is a great business definitely one of the very best in the game and it is one that I would highly recommend owning and number two we have the nightclub this is a completely passive business that always has a single vehicle sale Mission which is really really good now the upstairs in the nightclub is a legitimate or at least semi-legitimate business and a cover for what goes on in the nightclub basement however in the actual nightclub upstairs you will make $50,000 every 48 minutes or every in-game day in GTA online so long as your popularity in the nightclub is almost full now you can also fill the popularity in your nightclub by doing missions marked by a blue dot or a blue VIP when you walk into the nightclub however if you walk into the nightclub in passive mode you will always get the blue dot which is the kickout Troublemaker Mission which pays you $10,000 and plays a 5-second cut scene of you throwing out a troublemaker and it will give you five ticks of popularity which is pretty good now there are five different bars on the nightclub popularity thing in the bottom and each of those bars has four ticks within it so this will do a bar and a quarter of another bar which is pretty insane now you can also switch your DJ for $100,000 the first time and then after that it goes down to 10K but it only does two ties every time you do this so the kick out Troublemaker mission is going to be your friend and so is passive mode at least entering into this business now for the nightclub basement you can earn a ton of extra money with this as well but it will require you to own several business business that we've talked about already on this list like the coke lockup the bunker the ma lab the CEO cargo warehouse or hanger and the weed farm once you have those businesses you can operate this as efficiently as possible you will have to hire some Warehouse staff to acrew these goods passively for you over time and the businesses just have to be set up they don't even have to be running or making product or be supplied so for example you can just buy the coke lockup and that will give you access to sourcing it passively in the nightclub basement you don't have to keep it supplied you don't have to do anything and your staff will still acrew Goods in the nightclub basement so keep that in mind for sure then you can let this stack up over time and over the course of about 20 hours you will get just over a million dollar worth of stock which you can then sell and make a ton of money now Tony will take a 10% laundering cut but the maximum that he will take from you is $100,000 so the more money you're selling for over $1 million technically the more money you are going to keep if if you want to know more about the nightclub I do have a full guide on my channel as a matter of fact I have full guides for several of these businesses and I will link those all in the description down below so if you do want to know more about them in depth those videos will be linked in the description down below now next up we have an honorable menion and it is of course the salvage yard Business from The Chop Shop DLC that released back in December of 2023 this is of course one of the newer businesses that have been added into GTA online and the salvage yard was actually a pretty good business overall and there were three ways of making money with the business two of them being directly linked to each other first of all though the main way to earn money with The Chop Shop was through the vehicle robberies a series of essentially mini heists where the vehicles swap over every single update week and you can steal different vehicles and then bring them down to the docks to sell them you're basically going to have to do a mini Heist kind of like the autoshop contracts except you're going to bring a vehicle back to the Chop Shop and then you can choose to sell them for a profit however once per month during an update week there will be a vehicle that you can steal and that you can then keep and turn into a personal vehicle with this business which is pretty cool these cars can be worth pretty different and varied amounts of money the cheapest is usually around 200k and the most expensive is usually just under 400,000 so you can do three robberies per week netting you about a million dollars just for the robberies however there is also the second and third ways to make money with this business and those are through the tow truck now the tow truck with the business can be used to go and steal cars which you can then bring back to the Chop Shop and Salvage now you will get a one-time payment for completing these of about usually $35 to $40,000 per car that you steal however with the bottom dollar bounties DLC in Grand Theft Auto online they did Nerf this a little bit and they put a 2-minute cool down between launching tow truck emissions which is just to inconvenience us a little bit more which is kind of annoying however if you do bring back these cars with the tow truck and then they get scrapped you will also get a bonus on your passive safe income that is also within the chop shop now this maxes out at about $24,000 per day which is not bad but it is fully dependent on how many vehicles you are bringing back to the Chop Shop and how often you are doing that overall it's a pretty interesting business but since they nerfed it a little bit with the bottom dollar bounties DLC I decided to move it to be an honorable mention for this video because it's not as good as it was when it first came out unfortunately of course and number one the best way to make money as a solo player in Grand Theft Auto online is by doing the KO Paro Heist the KO perco has takes about an hour to set up for the average play and you could probably get it down to even less than that once you become really good at it now it has been nerfed into the ground several times over the last couple of years making it still the highest money per hour activity that you can do in the game but there's a big cooldown after completing it and the amount of money that you can make is significantly decreased roughly 30 to 35% less than you would get if you had done the heist when it first came out so that does kind of suck they also changed the setup cost from 25 Grand to 100 Grand per time that you do it meaning that you just make less profit overall arguably with all of these Nerfs the contract from the agency might actually be the better way to earn money but I will leave that up to you guys to decide I personally would kind of go for the agency though over the kop Paro Heist and the kasaka submarine but that might just be me anyway guys that has been it for my picks for the top 10 best ways to make money as a solo player in Grand Theft Auto online if you made it to the end of the video
