Hint: Free rent:
When staying at the "Come Over Guest House",
the rent is $38 per night. To avoid paying, do not pay it in the
morning then stay out until 11 o'clock.
Hint: Easy money:
Use the following trick on the first two discs for
easy money. Go the worker's pier and move crates. When you shift
is done, leave then go back in. You can do this three to four
times in one day.
Go behind warehouse #8 on Fortunes' Pier (the one with the red
doors). There is a set of Lucky Hit tables there. Choose the second
table from the left. The board features a tiger with wings, and
the bet is $20 to win $60. You should drop the marble fairly close
to the left side of the table and win about 60% of the time. You
can easily make $1,000 in a day.
Go to warehouse #8 after work. Win until you have $50, then go
to warehouse #13 and win until you have $100 or more. Go to warehouse
#10. When you are asked to place a bid, choose the one with 4
times (the bottom one), but do not press A yet. There
is a turning triangle in the bottom right. Wait until it turns
to a straight line, then press A. You will win most of
the time. It is possible to win over $13,000 after one hour of
playing.
