How to achieve $1 Trillion Achievement and Property Buying Guide

I used to think that it would take FOREVER to make the $1 Trillion Achievement. It actually wasn't that bad when I had a paradigm shift on my original thinking ... I STOPPED BUYING PROPERTIES. Once I did that and made a few other tweaks here and there, my money really started accumulating quickly.

The $1 Trillion achievement is something that anyone can start working towards, but you might not start making much progress towards that until you follow some of our strategies contained here.

Best Ways to Earn Cash
▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲
Job: Make Arrangements for a Visiting Don (New York - Boss tier)
this is the job where the majority of your energy should be spent when you are actively working towards this achievement. If you need 1.4 XP/Energy ratio or less to level, you may get a better Cash/Energy return by doing the Agostino Cleto boss fight (that is largely dependent upon how much total energy you have and total cash on hand).Boss Fight: Agostino Cleto (New York - Enforcer tier)
This boss fight is the aspect in the game that scales positively for accumulating cash. What do we mean by that ...? This means that the MORE cash that you have on hand, the MORE cash that you receive from winning this boss fight (this can easily be observed based upon the screenshot below ... cash on hand = $1,199,898,257,596 | Boss Fight Payout = $2,159,816,864).

SPECIAL NOTE:
You CAN NOT be doing anything in other tabs/windows (like DoJobs / gifting / etc) while attempting a boss fight ... you will run away and LOSE the experience and cash.

Agostino Cleto Boss Fight:Energy Cost = 20% Total Energy ... 1525 x 20% = 305 energy
= 0.18% Cash on Hand ... $1,199,898,257,596 x 0.18% = $2,159,816,864 Using Stamina to Rob
This is probably obvious using stamina to rob instead of fight to generate more cash. I plan on writing a more detailed note regarding this topic specifically but for now will include a couple pointers here.

Check the person's profile page for Robbing Defense boosts BEFORE you rob them. I normally skip people that have 2 or more different kinds of robbing boosts. If they have a lot of casinos and multiple boosts, sometimes I'll use stamina to knock off their boosts when I don't need the XP from that stamina.
If they have Robbing Defense boosts, and you want to try robbing them to wear their boosts off ... rob their LEAST expensive property (Restaurants, etc) to wear the boosts off. This will cost you minimal $ from losing due to their boosts.
  • Create a list of people that have 300+ Casinos. Why 300+ casinos ...? At ~300 casinos, each stamina from robbing their casinos gives ~$1 million. I personally use this strategy ... however I try to limit robbing each person to only once a week off of this list.

    Formula for amount received PER Successful Heist
    $135,000 + (# of Casinos x $3,000)

    Example:
    $135,000 + (300 Casinos x $3,000) = $1,035,000 received PER successful heist

    NOTE: The MORE casinos that someone has the MORE money that you will receive from them for each successful heist. There is no upper limit to this.



    Best Ways to Save Cash

    DO NOT bank your money
    Before you even think of trying to achieve the $1 trillion achievement you should be able to cash flow at least $1 billion a day (either from jobs, Mafia Mikes, robbing). $1 bil/day is VERY easy to reach. Lets take a look at how much it really costs you to bank your money ...
    ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
    $1 billion x 10% bank fee = $100,000,000 bank fee

    If you are worried about people attacking you and getting your money ...

    $100,000,000 / $100,000 lost from each fight = 1,000 fights
    ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
    Do you really lose 1,000 fights a day? For most people this is an obvious NO!! And this is using a lowly $1 billion day income. Most people that are realistically in a place where they can start working on the $1 trillion achievement are easily able to cash flow $10-20 billion a day (or more). I personally get over $2 billion for EACH boss fight I do.

  • Heal in Cuba
    Most people that are able to work on this achievement have lots of pesos sitting there in Cuba with nothing really worthwhile to use those pesos on. Start healing in Cuba instead of in New York.

    Recommended Properties
    ▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲
    The only properties that we can confidently recommend as far as delivering a solid ROI (Return On Investment) are Mafia Mike's. The problem with properties is that they become increasingly expensive as you buy more. The end result is that buying properties compounds negatively for your cash accumulation. Furthermore by not having the most possible cash-on-hand, that prevents you from fully being able to take advantage of the ONLY thing in the game that compounds cash positively ... Agostino Cleto Boss Fight ... we'll talk more about that later.

    I personally stopped buying properties (except for Mafia Mikes) around June 18. When I made that decision, I really started seeing my available cash increase.

    Protecting Current Properties


    We don't believe that Property Protection is a good buy. However, the newly introduced Robbing Defense Boosts are EXTREMELY effective. We recommend you to have
    at least 1 of these different boosts. That will serve to decorate your profile page. This will probably stop majority of people thinking of robbing you, it may not the more determined robbers.

    List of Robbing Defense Boosts:
    • Hobo Lookout [+60] - available from re-vaulting Beards Collection

    • Motion Detector [+37] - available from re-vaulting Paintings Collection. Can also be obtained through the "Free Boost" page from a mafia member.

    • Bouncer [+27] - available from re-vaulting Billiards Collection. Can also be obtained through the "Free Boost" page from a mafia member.

    • Alarm System [+15] - available from re-vaulting Sculptures Collection. Can also be obtained through the "Free Boost" page from a mafia member.

    • Mutt [+5] - available from the Inventory -> Boosts Page for $2,000,000 each. 20 Can be purchased per day, up to 100 max. Currently you can gift these mutts and have more than 100 total if received from a gift.
