Is it just me or are there no police cars just randomly driving around without their sirens on?

I did 2 assassination missions without enough knowledge of the stock market. Might have to pull out an old save and lose a few hours of progress.

Another random thing I've discovered...if you're close to a prostitute and call 911, the cops will come and arrest her...LOL. Kind of a dick move, but less dickish than murdering them to get your money back after being "serviced"

So awesome that Rockstar put in a little area on the map for the drug deal gone wrong from No Country for Old Men. Would be hilarious if Anton Chigurh comes after you.

I haven't banged a hooker yet in this game. I actually stopped what I was doing when i read this and turned on the xbox to get one.

And then kill her for my money back.

I had what I think is the best death I have ever had in a GTA series tonight. I stole a front end loader at the quarry, drove it to road, and tried to destroy cars with the bucket. Was trying to lift a car off a bridge when it exploded, taking out the loader, and around 6 other cars at the same time. Such a big explosion. Totally worth the 5 grand in medical bills.

To save on medical bills invest in a solid company and dump all your cash there. They take a % of money on your person... so dont walk around with thousands of dollars

The game is filled with amazing random total wtf moments. I had a tank in the hanger I bought at the airport. I'm a little bored so I stop the missions and take the tank out for a spin, I start hammering airplanes with the tank and then the cops are all over the place. I spin the main tank weapon around and aim it at the cops chasing me, as I'm driving backwards firing at the cops a massive 787 that is landing smashes into me bursting into Flames, igniting the cop are as well.

It was beautiful.

Could you do the same thing with an ATM?

I haven't found an ATM I can deposit into. The nice thing about this way is you can do it on the fly anywhere. But yes if you can deposit into an ATM in single player it's the same idea, they only take % of the cash on hand. I figure why not make your money work for you

With a fast car you should be able to get to the 747 without too much heat on you.

Another way to protect your assets is to invest half of your money in two stocks that compete directly. Stocks are so supposed to run mirror of each other.

Getting away with the f35 is very difficult. Damn tanks and missles always cripple it so I crash a minute later
