How to make money in Grand Theft Auto 3 – The Definitive Edition

In GTA 3 there are quite a few ways to make a lot of money, ranging from main missions, side missions, or just straight up killing and stealing from pedestrians. This is the name of the game when it comes to the GTA series and the more money you have the better off you will be. Here's how to make money in the game.

Main Missions

These are story missions that will drive the entire game. You will make the most money at one given time by completing them. Main missions usually vary in location but will always be identifiable by a large letter on the map. Drive to these locations and stand in the blue ring to start them.

Taxi Driver Missions

This is a timed side mission that can be done in free roam when you are not already doing a story mission. Find any yellow cab and hop in. Start the missions by pressing up on the directional pad. Completing these jobs will give you a pretty consistent payout, and more added time, for each fare. It's quick and it's easy money.

Paramedic Missions

These missions require you to hop in an ambulance, drive around picking up injured civilians, and return them to the hospital before time runs out. Instead of a consistent payout for each delivered person to the hospital, the mission increases in difficulty, and therefore payout, every time you successfully return with more people. Also, every time you pick someone up and return them you get more time added to the clock.

Vigilante Missions

This is another side mission where you hop into a cop car and drive around eliminating criminals. This is also a timed mission so to get more time added on, you have to kill more criminals. The difficulty to catch and kill each criminal increases, therefore, increasing the payout as well.
