Should I be looking to buy only one of the job/role licenses, or aim to get all 3? (Or none at all?) I have 50 gold bars at the moment (don't know if that's standard or whether I got them for pre-ordering on PC), but all 3 licenses would use 45 of them already.
Are gold bars better spent on other things instead?
I ended up getting one of them for free through linking my Twitch Prime acct w/ my Social Club. Google that to see if it's still available. I think it was the bounty hunter one.
You can get another one for free by grinding a couple hours in GTA Online if you have that, there's some collectivles if you get them all it unlocks 'collector' I think in RD Online.
Otherwise though if you have the gold bars, I'd say spend em on content if you got em. It depends on your play style for which one you'd like to do most. I play pretty relaxed, PVE, riding around usually doing misc stuff not really engaging in a ton of combat, so I think I like the Collector role the most, it's the one I like doing the most in the single player game (collecting herbs, etc).
You can make a ton of in-game money on collector, I think it's the one that pays out the most.
You can make a ton of XP on trader.
And you can make a mix of gold/cash with Bounty Hunter (IIRC, I Don't really do bounty hunter that much).
I think the best balance if you're tight on coins is to unlock Bounty Hunter because they constantly add new unique bounties each week which are a lot of fun to play, even solo, and you can do them multiple times for different rewards/challenges. And then maybe pick either Trader or Collector. Honestly, I don't even play that much but I've got more money than I usually have to spend on things. I've used a little bit of gold to buy a better horse. But, otherwise, my original horse was fine for me too.
I posted earlier "I Wish that fast travel didn't cost money" or something, and a guy said to me... "Y'know, there's no point hoarding money in the game." And he's right. I think most of the roles pay out pretty good and it seems like I always have about $500 or something in cash in the game and not a ton to spend it on. I did end up buying the Outlaw Pass which gives you a lot of free ammo and other things like that regularly.
For Daily Challenge stuff, that's not even something that I focus on much, but I've been able to login each day to do at least one daily challenge each day and I'm up to about 21 days. I never thought I'd do that, I thought the time committment would be too much, but it's really easy and some of them only take like... 30 seconds ("Visit a shop in blackwater", I'll start in Great Plains, ride to black water, go to shop, and boom, done.) So now I get 0.5 gold per challenge, and I still only do one or two a day, but when I have time to do more you can easily earn like 5 gold a day, so you make back whatever you spent on it pretty quickly... Plus the XP, cash, etc that you get for it too.
