## Transcript

Rarely do you get something worth owning for free in GTA Online, but there are exceptions to this rule, and fortunately for us, the acid lab is one of those exceptions. This is an S tier business that you can own within your first day
one of the most chill experiences you can have as a solo player. So, in this guide, I'll show you exactly how to get the acid lab for free and how to make millions of dollars with it. Okay, so our journey to being the kingpin of an
LSD fueled drug empire begins with a simple phone call from Trevor's friend Ron, who asks you to visit the Ace Liquor Shop in Sandy Shores. You'll see a big R icon on your mini map. Just visit the place and you'll start the Los
Santos Drug Wars quest line. There are two parts to this. First dose, which has you unlock at the end of each part. And for part one, it's the acid lab version of the briade 6x6, which is different from the regular briade that you can buy
on Warstock Cash and Carry. Not only is the acid lab briade much tankier and capable of surviving over 45 RPGs to the face, but it can also accommodate a mobile drug lab in the back, which is what we're going to be using here to
part of the drug war story line, Lastto, you'll unlock your other reward, which is the Ocelot Virtue. That's a $3 million electric hyper car with one of in Monty Techch, which makes it very survivable against oppressor griefers.
hour, maybe an hour and a half. And it will pay you over $600,000 when you that, do the five last dose missions for another $300,000, and you'll have more
worth of acid lab equipment. If you don't see the install equipment option three warehouses around the map that contain the actual asset lab equipment.
number six, off the rails, which is the one where you steal a Humane Labs briade to load the equipment onto a flatbed truck using a forklift. Then simply
drive back to the freak shop and you're good to go. If you have no interest in ASAP, you can start running your acid lab right after you finish first dose. But I would recommend waiting until you've done 10 fool jobs for Dax. These
missions are really easy and you get $50,000 for about 7 to 10 minutes of gameplay. There's a 48minute cool down between each fooligan job. And that is a days. Trust me, it is worth it because as a beginner, there is no better
raid, you can become a multi-millionaire in no time with literally zero monetary shop to start these fool contact missions. Just call up Dax on your phone
then and there. As a side note, if you want to skip the story part altogether, spending $1.4 million. M is still going to call you up and explain how the
to customize your briade 6x6 until you unlock the freak shop by meeting with much time. Now, let's talk about the stuff you guys are here for. Moneym with
the acid lab. How much profit can you make per hour? How do resupplies work? starting with profitability first. And I'll be breaking this down into two demonstrate just how massive of a difference the simple $250,000 upgrade
you just want to see the results, you can feel free to skip ahead to this time resupplies, each costing $60,000. So, you'll spend $192,000 on supplies alone,
and you'll make $237,600 in return with a full batch of product. equipment, which is an eternity, and it means you can spend a couple days through a feature called production boost. If you step back into the back of
some weird looking chemical bottles. And when you interact with it, you'll be per day, so 24 real life hours, but it will bring down the time required to
produce a full batch of product from 6 hours to 4 hours and 30 minutes. Let's run the numbers real quick. 237,000 minus the 192,000 you spent on resupplies means we're making a profit of $45,600
over 6 hours. That's just $7,600 per hour, which is pretty pathetic. Even can make more by doing taxi work. And yeah, you could steal resupplies, but supplies. And that'll take even more of your time. hours that you could be
raid, Kyo Perico, or even watching paint dry. Basically, what I'm saying here is do not run the acid lab without equipment upgrades. It's not worth it. But now, let's see how we fare once we spend the 250k on equipment upgrades.
Production time goes down to just 4 hours unassisted and 3 hours with the production boost enabled. Product value goes up from $237,600 to a whopping $335,200. That's a 41% increase in sale value. But
wait, there's more. Because now we only need 1.6 resupplies rather than 3.2, a 50% reduction in our supply costs. And here's a little secret for you. If you scroll down a bit, you'll see another option titled product name. If you name
you will get a 5% increase to every sale value. That brings our full stock up from $335,200 to $351,960.
Running that math once again, we're now making $255,960 in net profit every 4 hours, which comes out to $64,000 per hour. Not bad, right? And with the production speed boost activated, our profit rate goes up even
further to $85,000 per hour. For all you guys who skipped ahead for the results, here you go. With an upgraded asset lab, you can make up to $85,000 per hour with production boost activated and $64,000 without the boost. I already mentioned
and where to buy. Unlike your MC businesses or bunker, the asset lab resupplies. Nor do you need a master control terminal. Instead, this is what
you do. Open up your phone, scroll down to where it says MUT in your contacts, $60,000. And again, you only need 1.6 of these to fill up your entire storage
easy, right? You can also summon the acid lab to your location and manually walk up to mut and select buy supplies if you want, but it's unnecessary unless inside of the vehicle for. You can't activate production boost over the
profitability details on the GTA online subreddit from a user called they call resupplying handled, let's talk about selling now. How do you sell your acid
lab product? Can the business be rated like MC and CEO businesses? Thankfully, no. The Asset Lab cannot be raided. It's 100% raid proof. And in order to sell vehicle menu. Then, walk inside and you'll see this stash of jars on the
The coolest thing about the acid lab, other than its completely hands-free management, is the fact that you only get one sale vehicle every single time, a manez scout C, which is an off-roading beast, so you'll have no trouble jumping
across roads or riding over rocky hills as you race across the map to make your acid deliveries. There are three types of cell missions: paper, stash, and packages filled with LSD into tiny collection baskets. In Stash, you get
three possible stash points to hide your product in while trying to be as you can get, which is police sting. You'll know that you've got police sting

immediately and shot from all sides. Instead, what you can do when you get the police sting mission is just get to the parking garage, shoot any number of building, lose the cops, and that should be extremely easy since you're driving a
very agile off-road bike. Then MUT's going to give you a backup location, and the delivery. Just one drop off, and this mission can mostly be done in under 4 minutes. In fact, most acid lab sales rarely take more than 10 to 12 minutes
you're always going to have that 50% potential high demand bonus if you sell activate ghost or protect yourself throughout most of the mission. If you
10 separate drop offs, but still with a single sale vehicle, it's more than isn't really much else to cover. However, the Briade 6x6 is also
business. If you didn't already know, it's the second tankiest vehicle in the entire game in terms of explosive resistance, just behind the MOC. You can ram in the front if you want to drive around Phantom Wedge style, flipping
vehicles all over the place. The briade is also an easy way to get rid of cops, level, same as any other service vehicle. And it can also equip all kinds of proximity mines from EMP mines to sticky mines, which makes it a pain to
Santos Drug Wars DLC is one of the finest that Rockstar has ever added to remotely and makes excellent money, but you're also getting an amazing vehicle,
or rather two amazing vehicles, because once you finish Lastos, remember you've got Dr. Isaiah Freedellander's Ocelot Virtue waiting for you. And all of this get out there, do the drug wars missions, unlock your free overpowered
