One dedicated GTA Online Player claims to have earned a staggering amount of $400,000,000 by performing grinding jobs in the game.
Grand Theft Auto Online is one of the most popular multiplayer games of all time. The Rockstar Games title is highly praised for its gameplay while it also receives criticism for technical reasons. Besides these, GTA Online is mainly known for its regular updates from developers that keep adding new downloadable content.
These updates often add new vehicles to Grand Theft Auto Online, expanding the available choices for players. Vehicles are necessary in GTA Online as they are needed to traverse the game's vast open world speedily. However, like most items in Grand Theft Auto Online, players must have enough cash reserves to purchase expensive cars and other things. Earning large amounts of money in GTA Online takes a lot of time, and players often complain about the game feeling more of a grind.
Still, some gamers, like Reddit user luigi_b0red, become successful by employing various grinding methods. The user uploaded an image on Reddit that shows their player character with an exorbitant amount of bank balance, $400,000,000 to be precise. Luigi_b0red claims they've earned this large sum of money by grinding jobs regularly for countless hours. However, the user didn't clarify exactly what kind of activities they did to earn such a tremendous amount of money in Grand Theft Auto Online.
As expected, the post received widespread appreciation on Reddit, as shown by more than 6,400 upvotes and hundreds of encouraging comments. Most users applauded the original poster for their work, while others criticized the devs for making GTA Online feel like a grueling grind. A Reddit user named goo_bazooka pointed out that Grand Theft Auto Online payouts have degraded over time, and earning money through in-game activities often feels cumbersome. They also suggested that Rockstar uses this strategy to push more players to purchase Shark Cards to gain as much revenue as possible.
Many people in the global Grand Theft Auto community share goo_bazooka's opinion, while others beg to differ. Most fans agree about the declining payouts and emphasis on selling Shark Cards but also believe the game offers a plethora of opportunities to get rich in a short time. Running multiple businesses in Grand Theft Auto Online is one of the most effective ways to amass colossal amounts of wealth quickly as it generates higher cashflow.
Grand Theft Auto Online is out now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
