Achievements

Money Management

The most challenging achievements in Schedule 1 are tied to your net worth. Here's how to reach $10,000,000 faster:

• • Focus on high-profit product recipes rather than volume
• • Invest in all available dealers early to maximize passive income
• • Use the bank to avoid police confiscation when your heat level rises
• • Complete side missions for Uncle Nelson for additional revenue streams

Avoiding Police Heat

Getting arrested is needed for one achievement, but will slow down your progress toward others:

• • Wait for your heat level to decrease before conducting large sales
• • Use dealers for high-risk transactions once your heat is above 3 bars
• • The sewers and back alleys provide safe routes when police are searching
• • After getting "The Long Arm of the Law" achievement, stay under the radar

Upstanding Citizen Shortcut

The "Upstanding Citizen" achievement is tedious but can be optimized:

• • Find a Cash for Trash machine in East Docks (highest payout rate)
• • Collect trash while moving between deals - never travel empty-handed
• • Use a skateboard for faster trash collection around the city
• • Set a goal of 50 trash items per gaming session to steadily progress

Easiest Achievement Path

For new players looking to boost their achievement count quickly:

1. Complete the prologue to get "Welcome to Hyland Point" and "Left in the Dust"
2. Create a $100+ product for "Master Chef"
3. Save up $500 to hire Benji for "Dodgy Dealing"
4. Try selling in a high-risk area to get "The Long Arm of the Law"
