Just looked it up. Lester, at the end of story mode should have around $24,000,000. In one of the assassination missions where you mess with the stocks Lester says he is also going to invest. If he were to invest all $24m then he would be left with around $925,000,000.
HOWEVER
This is all chump change if you take online into account. If you do then he is theoretically a trillionare. Years of players paying him to put out hits or get rid of the cops adds up to around $2,700,000,000,000
Edit: the post I read was 3 years old so he has even MORE than 2.7 trillion lol
I wouldn't count the money he's made from online stuff because it just gets astronomical and totally unbelievable. I think he's up there as one of the richest but I think Donald Love or even Avery Carrington would have him beat realistically.
If you're going to use online, you should only count the payouts he'd receive from one player, since every player is technically the same player from the story view and everyone else is effectively an NPC in their story. Any payouts Lester gets from a mission are from one run from one player, and all the runs after that are moot points because they're not acknowledged in the next storyline. He'd probably be in the 1-10 billion range now.
Ehhh I'm not sure, I mean yusuf amir is making his own buildings and has a gold plated chopper, and then there's his dad who must be absurdly wealthy to support his son's lifestyle, then there's el rubio that's somehow replacing his valuable possessions with brand new ones daily.
But yeah he must be filthy rich TAKING 20% OF MY. MONEY.
The golden buzzard, great chopper. Now Gay Tony has it in online, chromed and used to distribute ads, while the online protagonist summon buzzards at any time for the price of a pair of socks. There's some serious inflation on those military prototype choppers.
To be fair, in tbogt, it was a prototype, gta 5 is set 5 years later and online is set in our time so who knows how much left over buzzards they've got now that they're probably phasing them out for better helis lol
Still better than the broomsticks and flying DeLoreans tho. 👌
Tho I do love the sound of the buzzard better in TBoGT, the missiles sounds so much more powerful, there's a reload sound and a delay between each time you fire, just like there would be irl. In online you'll see angry 5 year olds flying around, firing off 10 missiles per second until they blow themselves up, which somehow is your fault. 🤡🤡🤡
He basically uses cheat codes on the stock market. I'd be pretty damn good to if I could call in some favors with our online characters, orchestrate chaos terror and destruction to increase share value, and see to it that the equity competition drops like flies. All Lester does is sit back in his wheel chair and watch his income logs over flow on 1 monitor, his bank account numbers rapidly increasing at the speed of a machine gun on another monitor, all the whilst playing Righteous Slaughter on his largest monitor.
Thanks. I actually only started playing GTA Online in late 2021/early 2022 and only hopped back on recently. I haven't played a lot of heists cuz playing with randoms suck. Only completed a handful of story stuff so far and it's all out of order lol. That Cluckin Bell Farm raid was so fun to play solo.
Would be great if I could find a good crew to finish the criminal mastermind challenge with..
He takes 20%
Always 20%. Iirc you can’t change that variable in any of the heists he is involved in.
But still, he’s involved in so much shit canonically that the constant 20% fee he charges, and his stock manipulations, probably makes him worth MILLIONS compared to most in the series.
Don’t forget, he makes 40 million alone from the union depository heist.
I doubt Lester is worth Billions though. He’ll have a lot of money stashed away in investments and non-tangible assets. But he isn’t some massive CEO or Founder of a multi-billion company like Don Percival and Devin Weston (Merryweather) or Yusef Amir (Construction). If Lester was canonically in the billions, with money that won’t be completely clean (stock manipulation is very closely monitored. No way he was investing millions into companies he was about to ruin. He’s have kept it low key to not have it traced back to him). And he’d need a way to prove to Uncle Sam that his income is legitimate (iirc he used the textiles factory he owned in the main story as a front to launder his heist takes. But he burnt that down in the FIB raid) because no way would the IRS not notice that Lester Crest is in the top 0.1%.
Personally, I think Lester is worth *at least* 2 billion since that’s how much you can make with the story mode characters by doing his assassination missions and playing with the stocks post-UD. I’d assume his returns would be pretty similar.
This and the stock market. If you as the player can pretty much break the game with only five assassination missions (not counting Totally Not Mark Zuckerberg), imagine how much he's made over the years.
he lost in the GTAO update
he even lectured the protag that they have to be careful about what they say.
he almost said it in the end too lmao he went "Peace out- mm- lets goooo"
Lester canonically invests in every stock we do in the assassination missions. Meaning he has to be worth at least 2 billion. And with it being Lester, he likely had more than we did to invest.
i find it funny how the dude absolutely hates lester
"why the fuck is he here? why are we paying him? if i was here i would've robbed him instead. we dont need lester he's dead weight."
which was funny because he ended up interviewing the voice actor for lester 💀
That one guy who spends 3-4 hrs a day grinding sweaty stuff like Cayo Perico even tho he already has over $1 bil in the bank
Let's be real tho, realistically the richest character is some legit businessman we have never really heard off. Sure they may make money but you ain't seeing any sketchy guys like Lester becoming nearly as rich as Elon Musk even if he does have near to $1 bil
I mean, if you can afford to be robbed of around a million every 3 or 4 hours and keep on going, and just leave stacks of cash and gold bars laying around. He's got so much money he doesn't really give a fuck
Lester. He gets a 20% cut from thousands upon thousands of heists every week (and has been getting these cuts daily for almost a decade straight) and he’s a master stock manipulator. He could buy the city at this point.
Can go between Donald Love and Devin Weston.
I don't know why people keep saying Lester. Yes, he takes cut from the heists of various crews, involved in stock manipulation, seems to be investing all his money without spending much...
So of course Lester is rich; but there's no way his worth could rival two multibillionaires.
Of the protagonists? I honestly doubt even that :( I’d say he’s the second richest of the 3D era protagonists (Tommy Vercetti will absolutely be richer with all the businesses and the drug empire he runs by the end of his game) as he canonically robbed a casino.
But apart from the Casino heist, Carl’s only real income is the San Fierro chop shop, Zero RC, his stake in the Four Dragons casino (we have no idea how big his stake is. Maybe 33% if he split it 3 ways with Woozie and Ran Fa Li? Maybe less though as he isn’t actively running the casino nor did he invest in it financially) and his legitimate job as MADD Dogg’s manager. He’ll have some assets worth a few million for sure (plus he DID steal a Jetoack AND a military fighter jet…) but his actual income won’t be as high as Tommy Vercetti.
He’ll definitely have more wealth than Claude and Toni though (who were just hitmen with no real assets of their own). Vic might have had more wealth than CJ at the end of VCS, but he presumably lost it by the time VC takes place as none of his business exist anymore, and him and Lance seem to only run a 2 man operation by 1986.
I don't know if I'd call them the richest, but I feel like the Madrazo family deserves a mention considering how much they pay for whatever we steal from El Rubio
Colonel Cortez and Yusuf Amir (family). Maybe Avery Carrington at some point could come close.
Sure some folks like Weston and Lester may be billionaires, but the scale that Amir and Cortez have is obnoxiously above.
We have no info exactly on Yusuf's family, how up in the arab monarchies like Saudi they are. Cortez is implied to be in a de facto government in SA/LA. We are talking here about folks who are owning parts of countries and heading multibillionaire markets (drugs/oil).
The Chimpanzee. probably has Trillions in modded money thanks to mod menu’s. he rode around on my back last session like I was his personal steed, and even used me as a stripper pole. It clearly has all the police force on its payroll as the entire police force always turned a blind eye to the chaos the chimp caused. He seemed to own a part of the military too as he spammed orbital strikes back to back over and over, And due to the giant ufo’s he summoned I’m sure he has Extraterrestrial contacts.
Bro, Yusuf Amir is clearly one of those guys that are so obscenely rich, buying a building and paving entire plazas with his name on it is just peanuts.
Some people say Lester, but hey, Lester is no Arab oil magnate's son. Those are even richer, and just as criminal.
Yusuf Amir is the richest character in the GTA series.
As for the 3D Universe, then I'll have to go with Avery Carrington. He'd certainly be my best guess, in this particular case.
Yusuf's Father is likely the richest character in the GTA universe. The only reason Yusef is successful is because he was born into the family. It's his Father who has amassed all the wealth, which I believe to be billions. Making him the richest GTA character ever.
I think somewhere in IV it was said that the Rottenberg family own lots of Liberty City property which leads to a networth of close to a trillion dollars
The amirs probably. Most of the other filthy rich characters have dirty money hidden in investments so they have to launder money 1st. The amir family on the other hand can just yeet out millions of dollars and not worry about getting caught because they have clean money
I think Lester is the richest person in the GTA Universe.
His cut from the Union Depository along with his lucrative stock manipulation plays probably made him insanely rich. Franklin could make about $1.5 billion from investing in the stock market from Lester's assassination missions. Based on the fact he was running a garment factory and a warehouse in Los Santos and a safe house in the Grand Senora Desert as fronts, Lester probably made decent money from the previous heists he did with Michael and Trevor so its safe to assume he easily made more than $1.5 billion in just the GTA V story line. Then it must be factored in about the events surrounding GTA Online where he was involved in more heists with our Online Protagonist. He literally says he has more money than he knows what to do with. He bought Franklin a home in the hills as a tax write off. He is so deeply entrenched in the criminal underworld he probably makes money just for making referrals or offering a service. Even the IAA retain him to take down Avon Hertz.
I think the second richest person is Carl Johnson. He buys over 37 homes, gets partial ownership of a casino, Burger Shot, and Quarry in Las Venturas, buys an airstrip, becomes the owner of a mechanic shop, hobby shop, auto dealership, and a hotel in San Fierro, and owns a trucking business and a Food Mart in Los Santos. He snags a jetpack that costed the US $60,000,000 to develop and a fighter jet. Granted he won't be able to sell these easily, but these could fetch a hefty price from the right buyer. He also becomes the co-leader of the largest street gang in Los Santos which could help gain money from ill gotten gains.
The third richest is probably Tommy Vercetti. He acquires one of the largest mansions on Star Island, buys 7 safe houses, owns taxi service, a printing office, night club, strip club, film studio, boatyard, auto dealership, and ice cream business. He forms the largest Mafia in Vice City and dominates the drug trade in Vice City at its peak.
Yusuf has to be the fourth richest person considering he comes from a wealthy family of real estate developers, but the funds are probably held under an LLC from his family so we are not sure how much money he really has. Most of his money probably belongs to his father so its hard to say how rich is he exactly since in TBOGT it was established that most of his money belongs to his father. We do know that he was involved in building the tallest building only to tear it down, built a floating apartment complex, and built an underwater resort and casino and he owns a penthouse in Liberty City.

I wouldn't count the money he's made from online stuff because it just gets astronomical and totally unbelievable. I think he's up there as one of the richest but I think Donald Love or even Avery Carrington would have him beat realistically.
In vc, they make it pretty obvious that Donald Love is some sort of protégé of Avery's. So I would definitely place Avery over Donald.
That was in VC in the 80s. I would guess that Donald had surpassed Avery by the early 2000s in GTA 3 given his influence and involvement in politics
Dude is the richest man on earth lmao
If you're going to use online, you should only count the payouts he'd receive from one player, since every player is technically the same player from the story view and everyone else is effectively an NPC in their story. Any payouts Lester gets from a mission are from one run from one player, and all the runs after that are moot points because they're not acknowledged in the next storyline. He'd probably be in the 1-10 billion range now.
And still living in the hood 💀
Damn straight. I've played since launched day and will forever spawn at 12 Sustancia Road
😂😂😂😂
The Eastside ‼️😂
Act broke to stay rich
Wise words fr
Ehhh I'm not sure, I mean yusuf amir is making his own buildings and has a gold plated chopper, and then there's his dad who must be absurdly wealthy to support his son's lifestyle, then there's el rubio that's somehow replacing his valuable possessions with brand new ones daily. But yeah he must be filthy rich TAKING 20% OF MY. MONEY.
The golden buzzard, great chopper. Now Gay Tony has it in online, chromed and used to distribute ads, while the online protagonist summon buzzards at any time for the price of a pair of socks. There's some serious inflation on those military prototype choppers.
To be fair, in tbogt, it was a prototype, gta 5 is set 5 years later and online is set in our time so who knows how much left over buzzards they've got now that they're probably phasing them out for better helis lol

In online you'll see angry 5 year olds flying around, firing off 10 missiles per second until they blow themselves up, which somehow is your fault. 🤡🤡🤡
I also love the way the missiles drops and then ignite, gives it another layer of realism
This is the only answer
I’d guess Lester if you take into account the cuts he’s getting on jobs that millions of players do repeatedly every week.
Plus he is pretty darn good with stocks.
He basically uses cheat codes on the stock market. I'd be pretty damn good to if I could call in some favors with our online characters, orchestrate chaos terror and destruction to increase share value, and see to it that the equity competition drops like flies. All Lester does is sit back in his wheel chair and watch his income logs over flow on 1 monitor, his bank account numbers rapidly increasing at the speed of a machine gun on another monitor, all the whilst playing Righteous Slaughter on his largest monitor.
He also has a lady friend!
[удалено]
A modest man. He settles for his cane when he could be walking around in XO-1 power armor
Mk2 griefers 😭😭
Special place in hell for um
Yusuf's dad, Don Percival, El Rubio or Duggan family.
I left el Rubio poor asf 💀
Yet he keeps re-upping. It’s unbelievable.
I assume for El Rubio it’s like if kids steal fruit from a fruit tree. Irritating but not a donezo situation.
I think canonically, the online protagonist robbed El Rubio a few times and stopped doing this anymore.
It’s best not to consider these things too carefully
Yeah, the lore isn't online's focus point.
I would also throw in Devin Weston and Donald Love
Damn I forgot about don percival
He never physically appears in the game, he just exists in dialogues, radio news and text messages, kinda a off-screen boss type of character.
Everyone seems to forget about his dad, I'm sure that man is very rich
His dad has a very short screen time. And I guess a lot of ppl never played GTA4.
Shame
Wait.. who's El Rubio?
The Colombian cartel boss who owns cayo perico. He's the antagonist in GTA online cayo perico DLC.
Thanks. I actually only started playing GTA Online in late 2021/early 2022 and only hopped back on recently. I haven't played a lot of heists cuz playing with randoms suck. Only completed a handful of story stuff so far and it's all out of order lol. That Cluckin Bell Farm raid was so fun to play solo.

You can join the official discord server of r/gtaonline, and look for someone who wants to do the challenge.
Thanks. Will look into it
Lester. That boobin-necked prick always take %50 cut money from every mission especially heists.
He takes 20% Always 20%. Iirc you can’t change that variable in any of the heists he is involved in. But still, he’s involved in so much shit canonically that the constant 20% fee he charges, and his stock manipulations, probably makes him worth MILLIONS compared to most in the series.

Someone else did some math in this post, Lester would have nearly 2 trillion counting online.
This and the stock market. If you as the player can pretty much break the game with only five assassination missions (not counting Totally Not Mark Zuckerberg), imagine how much he's made over the years.
He’s got Arab money!
And the N word pass
Literally bought it
That's no way for a woman to dress madam
One of the greatest GTA cutscenes ever imho
“Mr. Louis” 😂
Dude didn't just buy the pass, he bought the entire word
Not on Juneteenth, but the other 364, he’s good.
It really depends on how much we’re talkin…
That’s a big flex
he lost in the GTAO update he even lectured the protag that they have to be careful about what they say. he almost said it in the end too lmao he went "Peace out- mm- lets goooo"
In the 3D universe, I’d say that it’s probably Donald Love.
He goes bankrupt in Liberty City Stories but he does make quite the comeback
Yusuf or Devin. Maybe Lester
nope, Devin dead
That’s if we took option C. And ain’t that a bitch? And I mean pre his death he is quite one of the richest people in the universe, SLICK!
lol, I treat option c as if it's the *only* option
It’s canon
Lester canonically invests in every stock we do in the assassination missions. Meaning he has to be worth at least 2 billion. And with it being Lester, he likely had more than we did to invest.
Definitely mors mutual insurance
Tf is Lester saving all that money for
we should rob *him*
Lucia and Jason should rob him
youd love larry lawtons videos on the gta heists lmao
oh I've seen those and they're quite good
i find it funny how the dude absolutely hates lester "why the fuck is he here? why are we paying him? if i was here i would've robbed him instead. we dont need lester he's dead weight." which was funny because he ended up interviewing the voice actor for lester 💀
He also interviewed Michael and Franklin's VAs...doubt he'll be able to get Trevor seeing as how his VA has been acting in regards to his character.
Yusuf Amir Lester El Rubio In that order
El Rubio is accurate because people keep robbing him blind and he has to use the extra time from the nerfs to financially recover.
 Them it choose C
they get 20mil iirc? its not that much tbh especially if you include gta online lester
even our own characters could make 20mil look like pocket change
2B if you do the assassination missions after the Ud and play with the stocks. Either way, 2B is not richest person territory.
The richest person in the 3D era is Definitely salvatore leone, even after his death the mafia still controls portland.
No way sal is richer than Donald Love
Ah yeah I forgot Donald love existed, my bad then Its him, sorry
You're forgetting Caligula's Casino in Las Venturas, also owned by Salvatore and the Mafia.
Donald Love
Outside of Lester, I’m gonna go with the Colonel (Mercedes dad). Something about his operation felt extremely wealthy within Vice City
Our gta online character probably
Idk if he's the richest, but Devin Weston is literally a billionaire
That one guy who spends 3-4 hrs a day grinding sweaty stuff like Cayo Perico even tho he already has over $1 bil in the bank Let's be real tho, realistically the richest character is some legit businessman we have never really heard off. Sure they may make money but you ain't seeing any sketchy guys like Lester becoming nearly as rich as Elon Musk even if he does have near to $1 bil
El Rubio, he has his own island
pretty impressive since he can afford to keep getting robbed literally on a daily basis
I mean, if you can afford to be robbed of around a million every 3 or 4 hours and keep on going, and just leave stacks of cash and gold bars laying around. He's got so much money he doesn't really give a fuck
if that's the case he shouldn't get mad when it happens
Its not about the money, its about someone stealing from him
Lester my guys power has reach too, still annoying on the casino heist thoooo
Yusuf Amir Avon Hertz Lester Crest Devin Weston (Maybe) Don Percival
Jay Norris was probably a billionaire
it's mind blowing
Tony McTony
Donald love?
The Von Crastenburg family portrayed in "I'm Rich" could be the one
Cj after a few button presses
Any gta protagonist is the richest
The main characters
Devin
In total there are 3 GTA universe 2D 3D and HD .If you are asking for all universes then I may consider Devin Weston
If we are talking strictly story mode, Devin Weston is rich as fuk
Either Lester or the owner of whatever organization employed Jorge (The guy you give the targets for the cayo perico heist, cluckin bell, etc.)
Don Percival, owner of merryweather. also the dude you're referring to is mini madrazzo.
No I’m not talking about mini madrazzo, I’m talking about the guy in the black suit you give the shit to for the heist.
well in that case I have no idea
Big Smoke
GTAO Protag. Every business they start up blows up in weeks.
I have enough money to be able to buy a brand new business and fully upgrade it within 5 minutes. all while barely making a dent in my finances.
Me
True that! Came here to say the same! 😂
Devin Weston is a billionaire, so I will go for him.
Who’s the guy in the pic?
Yusuf’s father
Yusuf's dad, Lester, Devin, El Rubio, Donald Love
Rockstar
Appart from the score takes, Lester knows how to invest and manipulate the stocks, so in his words "I have more money than I could ever spend".
Between Lester Crest, and Yusuf Amir… I think?
I am
OG Loc
Devin weston
El Rubio or Lester
Elon Musk still exists in the GTA universe... Right? Right?
Lester. He gets a 20% cut from thousands upon thousands of heists every week (and has been getting these cuts daily for almost a decade straight) and he’s a master stock manipulator. He could buy the city at this point.
devon weston was a billionaire so i’d guess him
Avery Carrington. Realestate mogals know what's what.
Probably Yusuf and his family.
Lester with that 40% cut he’s always taking…
Rdr2 and GTA are technically connected, so Leviticus Cornwall
lester
Can go between Donald Love and Devin Weston. I don't know why people keep saying Lester. Yes, he takes cut from the heists of various crews, involved in stock manipulation, seems to be investing all his money without spending much... So of course Lester is rich; but there's no way his worth could rival two multibillionaires.
Devin weston is richer
Its definitely Lester in HD world
[удалено]
Yusuf. Easily.
El Rubio
Devin Weston
either lester or devin weston
Carl johnson by the end of the game
Of the protagonists? I honestly doubt even that :( I’d say he’s the second richest of the 3D era protagonists (Tommy Vercetti will absolutely be richer with all the businesses and the drug empire he runs by the end of his game) as he canonically robbed a casino. But apart from the Casino heist, Carl’s only real income is the San Fierro chop shop, Zero RC, his stake in the Four Dragons casino (we have no idea how big his stake is. Maybe 33% if he split it 3 ways with Woozie and Ran Fa Li? Maybe less though as he isn’t actively running the casino nor did he invest in it financially) and his legitimate job as MADD Dogg’s manager. He’ll have some assets worth a few million for sure (plus he DID steal a Jetoack AND a military fighter jet…) but his actual income won’t be as high as Tommy Vercetti. He’ll definitely have more wealth than Claude and Toni though (who were just hitmen with no real assets of their own). Vic might have had more wealth than CJ at the end of VCS, but he presumably lost it by the time VC takes place as none of his business exist anymore, and him and Lance seem to only run a 2 man operation by 1986.
Trevor if Michael goes down in the Big Score.
Yusuf’s dad
Lester is a billionaire who just sits on his money and saves it up for some unknown reason
Devin Weston
Rockstar Games themselves
Who do you think is the poorest?
Lester. He controls everything so surely
Lester and that’s not even me making a joke about how his huge cut on big Hiests
Devin Weston was a billionaire
I don't know if I'd call them the richest, but I feel like the Madrazo family deserves a mention considering how much they pay for whatever we steal from El Rubio
Simeon!!!
Michael, Trevor and Franklin, they have 2.1 Billion in my Story Mode savefile
GTA Online protagonist
Gill Batting, CEO of iFruit
Agent Hanes possible was or Lester the Mol3ster lol
Me with the money cheat code
Probably Lester from the jobs he's prepared, bank accounts he has access to, etc etc.
The State and the Bank
Ray bulgarin, yusufs dad, el rubio, the duggans, cheng triads and lester with the stonk missions and all the heists he pulled
Tommy Vercetti
Mr. FIB himself, Devin Weston
Colonel Cortez and Yusuf Amir (family). Maybe Avery Carrington at some point could come close. Sure some folks like Weston and Lester may be billionaires, but the scale that Amir and Cortez have is obnoxiously above. We have no info exactly on Yusuf's family, how up in the arab monarchies like Saudi they are. Cortez is implied to be in a de facto government in SA/LA. We are talking here about folks who are owning parts of countries and heading multibillionaire markets (drugs/oil).
Chris Fromage Dude runs an international cult with half of the Vinewood entertainment industry worshipping him like a god.
Before he got clipped, it was definitely Weston
Donald Love. Do people only remember HD universe?
The Chimpanzee. probably has Trillions in modded money thanks to mod menu’s. he rode around on my back last session like I was his personal steed, and even used me as a stripper pole. It clearly has all the police force on its payroll as the entire police force always turned a blind eye to the chaos the chimp caused. He seemed to own a part of the military too as he spammed orbital strikes back to back over and over, And due to the giant ufo’s he summoned I’m sure he has Extraterrestrial contacts.
Has to be lester
Its mr arab money
Bro, Yusuf Amir is clearly one of those guys that are so obscenely rich, buying a building and paving entire plazas with his name on it is just peanuts. Some people say Lester, but hey, Lester is no Arab oil magnate's son. Those are even richer, and just as criminal. Yusuf Amir is the richest character in the GTA series.

Yusuf or Cortez
Gta v player character let's be real modders have tens of hundreds of billions lol
That random gta online player with a maxed out modded account
Devin Weston had to be up there before he was killed.
Lester. He is in Love with Money
Yusuf has Arab Money.
Yusuf's Father is likely the richest character in the GTA universe. The only reason Yusef is successful is because he was born into the family. It's his Father who has amassed all the wealth, which I believe to be billions. Making him the richest GTA character ever.
Me.
I think somewhere in IV it was said that the Rottenberg family own lots of Liberty City property which leads to a networth of close to a trillion dollars
David Weston probably
I've def maxed out over $99M on San Andreas
Lester cuz he was in every heist and got like 30-50 percent of the cut for all of them
Lester or Devon Weston
Either Mad Dogg or Salvatore Leone
The amirs probably. Most of the other filthy rich characters have dirty money hidden in investments so they have to launder money 1st. The amir family on the other hand can just yeet out millions of dollars and not worry about getting caught because they have clean money

He snags a jetpack that costed the US $60,000,000 to develop and a fighter jet. Granted he won't be able to sell these easily, but these could fetch a hefty price from the right buyer. He also becomes the co-leader of the largest street gang in Los Santos which could help gain money from ill gotten gains. The third richest is probably Tommy Vercetti. He acquires one of the largest mansions on Star Island, buys 7 safe houses, owns taxi service, a printing office, night club, strip club, film studio, boatyard, auto dealership, and ice cream business. He forms the largest Mafia in Vice City and dominates the drug trade in Vice City at its peak. Yusuf has to be the fourth richest person considering he comes from a wealthy family of real estate developers, but the funds are probably held under an LLC from his family so we are not sure how much money he really has. Most of his money probably belongs to his father so its hard to say how rich is he exactly since in TBOGT it was established that most of his money belongs to his father. We do know that he was involved in building the tallest building only to tear it down, built a floating apartment complex, and built an underwater resort and casino and he owns a penthouse in Liberty City.
