GTA is one of the most popular franchises in gaming with phenomenal settings, great commentary, and one of the best-written stories. Rockstar certainly knows how to keep their players hooked on to the game, and involving money in gaming is probably one of their best schemes. There is a lot to do in the Grand Theft Auto universe, where players can hustle and earn money.

GTA Online provides gamers with several opportunities to make money with different missions, heists, activities, etc. Players can use this money to purchase properties, make various investments, stock up on weapons and ammunition, and buy vehicles to move around Los Santos. Even though most of the content in the game focuses on co-op play, there are still some effective and profitable ways for solo players to earn money.

Heists are undoubtedly the easiest way to make money in GTA Online. Even though the initial costs involving the setting up of heists are quite high, the rewards are worth it.

Cayo Perico Heist is one of the best heists for players to play solo. In this, the protagonist is contacted by the son of a Mexican crime boss to steal problematic documents being held by a prominent drug lord.

Players are to scope out the island for points of interest, entry points both to the island and to the victim's compound, and any additional lucrative targets for them to steal. Each time players complete the heist solo, it can guarantee at least a $1,000,000 payout in the game.
