You know there was a stock market in this time period, which did crash in 1929. It can be restarted here, it could be just like the real world with high and low points. I think it would really help out new and old players in the short term and long term run. Of course it would all be about the money, cause some people are stupid enough to ask why we would need one. Its easy to say you dont need something when your already well off, but for the ones who aint. We could use something to invest in that could possible pay off in the long run. Now what could we invest in you might ask, well I have narrowed down some things for us but in the end it would be up to the Gods if this suggestion doesnt get pushed off a cliff.
1}Vehicles-Now from 1930-1940 there were plenty of companies competing with each other for sales. Such as: Auburn Hudson Chevy Ford Buick Cadillac Lincoln Nash Packard Plymouth Studebaker Pontiac Willys
2}Real Estate-Just like vehicles a bunch a new style house were being built in that era including: Family Houses Bungalows English Style Modern Style Spanish Style Farm Houses Cottage Stucco Bungalow Brick Houses Colonial Homes
3}Electricity-There were many new technologies for sale in this era Electric Toaster
4}Toys- Of course toys would always be a big seller from the beginning of time, it dont take a genius to tell somebody loves buying toys, either as collectibles or christmas gifts for their kids. It could be a profitable investment.
5}Furniture-I wont begin to list all the different furniture that was being built in the 30s but you can only imagine, or look on Google.
6}Clothes
7}Food
Enough said on my part, I think these are all good investments and worth it. Thanks for reading |

Why would a criminal invest in the stock market? |

To take dirty money and launder it into stocks so it becomes clean? |

| So we can make more money as the stocks rise, I don't expect rich folks to like this idea. | |

| Why wouldn't a criminal invest in something that could possibly make him more money? Not investing would just be a dumb move on somebody who is happy with the $100 that's just sitting in his bank. And yes, you can throw dirty money in and it would come out clean. But there's already a bank for that. This is just a proposal to increase the money making for you. Why not have it? Its not like the stocks are a fairy tale. Its real. | |

They used to be in the game a long time ago I don't know why they removed it but since it's the 1930's and the Great depression is going on people are less willing to buy some stock since money is tight and hard to come by after they crashed on black Tuesday. |

were not really feeling the depression though are we?, i mean not many people are pinching pennies here to make a living. It did crash in 1929 but why cant it pick back up here in the late 30s or so. |

The Great depression ended when the US entered WWII in 1941 all those factories making bombs and weapons for the war gave people jobs and things started picking up again. I mean it isn't really felt in the game but It's something that is role played out. |

and the drugs? i highly doubt there was coke and heroin in the 30s. have you ever heard of scarface kingpins in the 30s? maybe booze, but not meth and some of the other shit on here. |

cocaine was used in Coca-Cola, so basically were selling cokes right? |

| Maybe not stocks, but what about running rackets? It could work in a similar way to stocks, but we "invest" into stores and companys, and if the buisiness is "doing well" we can pressure them so to speak to give us better returns on our investments, its basically the same way as stocks would work but in a different angle..one perhaps a little more suited to the game? | |

| We are all criminals here not businessmen. If we want money we earn it by commtting crimes and other illegal activities. | |

Lets not turn this into an argument, Its a good idea, maybe just needs a little tweaking to make it more relevant |

I think it's a good idea, I agree with Genocide it does need a bit of tweaking but can be very a lucrative idea. |

i kinda feel the drug market is like the stock market. pricing change and all that.. so why would we need another market when you could just move drugs? |
