    Load every character's cash into Debonaire on LCN before starting this one. It tends to peak around an 80% return after the mission - sell out completely, then put everything into Redwood on the same exchange.

    This one runs backwards from the rest - don't invest beforehand. Once the mission wraps, put your money into Vapid on BAWSAQ and give it a couple of in-game days; it typically runs close to double before the price peaks.

    Gold medal objectives

    • Earn the $5,000 base payout
    • Kill the target using the bus (Hit and Run bonus)
  42. 42The Construction Assassination
