Hint: Unlimited Money from Winching

In the Winching Challenge, the game sets your minimum wager at 1/20 of your overall money and the maximum at 5 million. There is no cap on the minimum wager, so once you surpass 100 million for your overall money, the minimum wager will rise higher than 5 million. Exploit this to make lots of money. At one billion, however, the wager will cap at 50 million.

Hint: Easy Cash

After unlocking the Winching Challenge at your PMC, you can undertake the challenge over and over again to earn endless streams of cash. When you get to the third level, start wagering the maximum amount of cash you’re able to. Each time, you’ll wager the maximum, thereby allowing you to bet even higher the next time around. This increase your potential earnings exponentially.

The challenge never changes, so mastering it is easy enough. The maximum wager is $5,000,000. In 8-12 minutes (or less, if your hand is extra steady), earning $30,000,000+ is totally reasonable. This is definitely one of the easier challenges to earn easy, massive amounts of money on. Give it a go!

Unlockable: Extra Costumes

Complete the level 3 bets at the PMC Villa with your allies. These unlock extra costumes for your mercenary. For the best results, bet the maximum amount of money for the first two levels of challenge (manually save and reload your game to insure you win). For the third level of challenge, bet the minimum amount of money -- you will need to be perfect to beat a challenge at level 3.

Hint: 100% Completion

When shooting for 100% in all tasks, make sure to complete all outpost missions before you initiate the final story mission (Battle for Caracas / A.N. or China). Once the game is cleared, you cannot initiate outpost missions anymore (which unlocks a faction's shop items).
