I'm not sure if I'm "faster" but both of my accounts with different stategies have both passed 1 Million worth. Fishball sitting at 1.38M and Gravien sitting at 1.52M.

Here is my 2 cents with the "General Strategy" after doing a lot of research and bugging LastRomantic with his build while comparing to mine:

- Do not go for too much Lab Space while having too low Junkie count.
- Keep Lab Space to Junkies at a 1:17 Ratio, and keep it that way when you increase your Lab.
- Keep Pimpology at 175% to gain maximum revenue.
- If you want you to, you can invest in Botany to increase drug produced, but not necessary. The tokens invested in textbooks and credits isn't worth the return by selling drugs. You will also need to buy larger coats since you would be running out of pockets quick. Also you will have to use extra tokens to move to other stations to sell drugs when you run out of transactions.
- Buy credits with cash in the Black Market.
- Put the rest of your money in buying Vests, All of it.

In short, keep a steady growth of 1:17 Lab Space to Junkie ratio, keep Pimpology at 175%, buy Vests. You should be able to increase your worth in no time.

Some will buy Sewing Machines instead (Fishball has 120 Sewing Machines...), but I think I would benefit more by spending the Tokens more on growth, and use the "extra" money on Vests.

Gravien (my 2nd account) gains $160K average per token with 175% Pimpology right now, and it is just going up. The best I've got was $175K.

Oh, and try not to go Hybrid, such as having a balance between Guns and Vests. Either go mass Vests or mass Guns.
You won't be able to jump the fat targets because the chances are they will have a huge amount of Vests, and it is not worth it to jump an average player.

I suggest having a few Gunners in each cartel. Would be fun

PS. Finally overtook LR for the first time in TL2, temporarily.

Yup learned this the hard way. I actually bought crap loads of lab space (currently at 40 sq ft) at the beginning of the game which I am now desperately trying to fill with junkies (currently only at 438 including 34 in training). Still miles away from the magic number 680 to get the 1:17 ratio.

Oh, okay. So when I look at the recruits in training, and it says it has "X" number of training days, I just have to spend that many tokens?
