The Bus Assassination
This mission is a hit on Isaac Penny, an investor trying to ruthlessly scoop up shares in the big automaker Vapid.
The target: Isaac Penny is filthy rich and a notorious cheapskate, so he commutes by city bus.
What the hit does: when Isaac Penny dies, Vapid stock rises sharply. Buy Vapid right after the mission, and about 48 hours later the return is around 100%.
Warning: don't buy any stock before the mission. If you already hold it, the crash burns you.
- Set the in-game day to Monday morning first. (Open the save screen from bed and cancel to pass time.)
- Leave all three characters sitting on cash and start the mission as Franklin.
- Follow the prompt to a bus stop, hijack a city bus, and take the wheel.
- Run the route and pick up passengers. At one stop the target, Isaac Penny, starts to board, notices something is wrong, and rides off on a bike.
- Run the target down with the bus. The gold medal condition Hit and Run requires the bus, so do not use a gun.
- Get off the bus and leave the scene to complete the mission.
- The moment the completion notice appears, open the phone and put everything into Vapid (ticker: VAP) on BAWSAQ with every character.
- Sleep to pass the time. About 48 hours later, when the return is around 100%, sell and take the profit.
