Grand Theft Auto 5 provides players with many opportunities to increase their capital, but passive income is definitely the best available option. Cinemas and a golf course can be not only entertainment, but also a great source of income if gamers have enough money to invest, so in this guide, fans will learn how to buy them in GTA 5. The purchase process itself is not tedious, but accumulating enough currency can be a challenge. If players are wealthy enough to afford such purchases, then the instructions below on how to do so will be useful.
How to Buy The Cinemas
The best place to start is the cinemas, as they are cheaper. Before starting, it's worth noting that both the cinemas and the golf course are available for purchase only to Michael and only after completing the Nervous Ron mission. So, when players fulfill these conditions, they can consider buying these businesses.
In total, the game has four cinemas, three of which can be purchased by gamers to receive passive income. Not every one of them is profitable to buy if users do not frequently appear in the game, as it can take a long time to recoup these purchases. Now, let's take a closer look at each of the cinemas and their stats.
| Cinemas | Location | Price | Income per week | Payback period |
| Doppler | Vinewood Boulevard in Downtown Vinewood. | $10,000,000 | $132,200 | 75 weeks |
| Ten Cent Theater | Integrity Way and Sinner Street in Textile City. | $20,000,000 | $264,000 | 76 weeks |
| Tivoli | Intersection of Cougar Avenue and Morningwood Boulevard in Morningwood. | $30,000,000 | $142,300 | 210 weeks |
As shown, the cheaper this type of business is, the faster it pays off, so gamers should not buy the most expensive ones first. To buy a cinema, players will only need to go to one of them and find the property icon. After that, they will just have to interact with it, follow the instructions, and pay for the purchase to make the property theirs.
How to Buy Golf Course
As in the previous case, buying a golf course is identical. Just go to the property icon and interact with it to buy this type of business. In GTA 5 there is only one golf course that gamers can buy, and it is located north of Richman, Los Santos. The large and stunning space of this golf club is impressive, but the price will surprise fans no less. To purchase the golf course, players will need to save $150,000,000, and the weekly income will be $264,000. It will take as many as 568 weeks to recoup this purchase, which is a very long period for most players.
