Trevor only, so it is lost if you end the story with Something Sensible. Pick either other ending and Trevor lives, so you can finish it any time afterward. Have Trevor buy the McKenzie Field Hangar and clear all 10 gun-running missions.
-
Multi-Disciplined
Attain a gold medal in all applicable hobbies and pastimes.
Just one Gold per hobby type, not every individual challenge: Shooting Range, Flight School, Off-Road Race, Sea Race, Street Race, and Triathlon - 6 total. Street Races unlock through, and are satisfied by, Hao's Strangers & Freaks mission "Shift Work."
-

-
Show Off
Clear every Stunt Jump scattered around the map.
-
Three Man Army
Needs all three protagonists alive and switchable, so it is off the table after Something Sensible or The Time's Come. Keep everyone with The Third Way and you can do it any time after the story. Gather Michael, Franklin, and Trevor together off-mission and hold a 3-star wanted level for 3 minutes.
-
Out of Your Depth
Let a shark take you down while you're out in open water.
-
Altruist Acolyte
Trevor only, so ending the story with Something Sensible closes it off; either other ending keeps him. Playing as Trevor, pick up a hitchhiker from a random encounter and drop them at the Altruist Cult instead of their real destination.
-
A Lot of Cheddar
Between Michael, Franklin, and Trevor, spend $200 million total.
The fastest legitimate route to $200 million is Lester's five assassination contracts - each one has a stock play attached (something to buy beforehand, something to sell into afterward, sometimes a second follow-up trade). Best tackled after the main story's done, once all three characters have full bankrolls to invest. Each mission below has its own specific stock and timing.
Mission Buy Before Buy/Sell After Est. Return Hotel Assassination Betta Pharmaceuticals (BAWSAQ) sell, then buy Bilkington (LCN) ~80% → ~80% Multi-Target Assassination Debonaire (LCN) sell, then buy Redwood (LCN) ~80% → ~300% Vice Assassination Fruit (BAWSAQ) sell, then buy Facade (BAWSAQ) ~50% → ~33% Bus Assassination - (buy after only) buy Vapid (BAWSAQ) ~100% Construction Assassination GoldCoast (LCN) sell same stock ~80-90% -

Pimp My Sidearm
