What's the Easiest way to get money? Granted, I am solving EASY level crimes, but the money isn't at all nice:(

solving favors from the townspeople, they give you different items, if u dont want it, u can sell that and that can raise your stash up pretty good :) ...and when u reach the almost impossible level, instead of getting money,they give you gear that u can sell but it isnt as much as what u sell favor items for :) Also, and obviously, once u get past easy level, the money u get will be higher. Be patient, it'll come :)

Thank you! So far I have a chemistry set and a turban each for $800. The smart% they give me is worth more than if i sold the items and bought something to replace them.

Also, how do you talk to the shady guy in the bar in NY?

If you visit the bar you will see that there are two options

1) talk to the bartender
2) talk to the shady character in the back of the bar (or something)

Just click on that last option and get ready to be ripped of :)

If u have no false accusations, he will walk away. You only visit Shady if you have false accusations. If u get one falsey,dont worry aboutit, but if u ever get 2 false accusations, you might want to take a trip to the bar and visit Shady, then he wont walk away, he will be more than happy to take your money, ripping u off all at the same time lol Hope u dont have to ever visit that man :)

Also keep in mind Jimmy, that his rates will increase according to your experience level. Make sure you don't find yourself in a situation that you're stuck with 2 false accu's and with not enough cash in your pockets to clear your record. Very nerve-wrecking if you want to work on a next case.

My bro got into that situation once. He got out of the situation though.
