There are general strategies for what to do your first few levels, how to get started with jobs, inventory, properties, and leveraging your stamina. The Godfather and using your reward points are also covered.
Rollin' a Bankroll

In Rollin' a Bankroll you will find specifics on going from your paltry initial income to the wealth that comes from high amounts of passive income. This is the place to start if you are currently broke. There is also some general advice on banking, expenses, and getting through the rough patch of $250,000 to $10,000,000 an hour.
