Fallout Hints
I need more money!
1 of 14: Well, at the beginning of the game you are poor and will need every bit of money you can get. So, you should try and pick up almost everything you find, because it can all be sold for money later.
2 of 14: If you have a good Steal skill you can steal caps off of everyone you meet.
3 of 14: Better yet, you could steal items like guns and such that are worth a lot of caps and sell them.
4 of 14: Also make sure you search all the shelves, bookcases, desks, drawers, etc. Many times you can take the stuff in them and not make anyone mad.
5 of 14: Have you been to The Hub yet?
6 of 14: It's the central place to buy and sell things in the wasteland.
7 of 14: You can sell extra goodies you have here and get caps.
8 of 14: If you go to the FLC in The Hub Downtown, you can get a loan there for up to 1000 caps.
9 of 14: Actually, at first you can only borrow 200 caps. He wants you to show that you can repay small stuff first.
10 of 14: But you can borrow 200, pay it straight back to him, and he will let you borrow more. Repeat until you can borrow the maximum of 1000.
11 of 14: Of course, you only have 10 days to repay him...
12 of 14: And there's that nasty 10% interest rate per day.
