After putting in the man hours getting Monteriggioni back up to its former glory, I decided to make a guide so you don't have to make the same mistakes I did. If you follow this guide you should be making over 10k every 20 minutes in no time. Enjoy and here is the written guide:

Hello, this is SniperWolfHI and today we're gonna take a look at Assassin's Creed 2. This has by far been one of my favorite games of the year and an amazing sequel to the original. One of my favorite additions to the game is the ability to purchase weapons and upgrades as well as cloths, armor, and even artwork.

With so many different ways to earn and spend money, I decided to give you all some helpful hints to make earning the money as fun as spending it, without it getting boring or repetitive.

First off, play the game until you leave the first city and visit your uncle in the village of Monteriggioni which will become your new home. When you first get here the place is run down, the people poor, and all all the shops are closed. It is now your mission to invest in the town and bring it back to its former glory. I highly suggest saving as much money as you can up until this point. The weapons and armor that are available are not really important at this point of the game and if you follow this guide you will be ranking in the money in no time, and if you're like me, you'll be making so much money soon that there is no way to spend it fast enough.

You're given the chance to invest in businesses. I highly suggest investing first in a level one art merchant, so you can buy a treasure map of the town and get some extra income as you search for items around town. and I suggest spending the rest on the Bank, Blacksmith, and your Art Merchant, these are your biggest cash cows and will increase the town's value very fast.

When you invest in the town, its worth increases, thus increasing the revenues every 20 minutes, which you can pick up in this chest found in your uncle's house.

When you start investing in other buildings, you will unlock them and can sometimes explore inside there to find more treasure chests. You'll find about 600 gold in each one of them, so don't expect getting a fast return on those investments, every one of the non-shop buildings give you the same amount.

A fast way to earn money in town is to also search for the statues laying around and placing them on these stands. They are not extremely difficult find and they give you about 2000 gold per pair, there are 4 pairs of statues, so you do the math.

You can always continue playing the game and come back, or if you have something to do for an hour, you can leave your game running, and when you get back there is a nice chunk of change waiting for you, ready to invest again.

A lot of the weapons and upgrades are not available until later in the game, but it is nice to have 100k just sitting in the bank so you don't have to worry about it later.

You have the option of stealing and looting from people as well, which is great if you're short one or two hundred gold, but overall this is a very slow method and I suggest spending your time elsewhere like hunting down chests around the city and doing missions.

I hope this guide helps you as you begin your game and I hope you enjoy the game as much as I have. Thank you for watching.
