The Visible Hand
You must cause 5 emergency PR interventions to earn this achievement.
You want to have a decent amount of money first so you can afford to constantly hire lobbyists.
Once you have some capital just pick an industry, choose to short it then send all your lobbyists to lower the price of that industry. Continue to do this until the you see the PR gauge on your left monitor go down. Usually the industry will receive a red notice in your feed and reverse your lobbyists actions at the same time the PR gauge goes down. Repeat this step until it reaches ‘Defiant.’ Now do this over 5 days, it does not have to be days in a row.
At the end of the day you will get a warning from the boss when you try to leave the building. Your 5th time you will be fired, however you return to the office the next day. Buildings will be burning outside and the news will be speaking about your actions.
Try not to get promoted too fast when trying to do this achievement as the story can proceed before you get the chance to be fired. Once you get your gauge to ‘Defiant’ just earn 10-30k for the day and drink triple strength coffee until your evaluation.
Toy Totaller
At the end of the day on your personal wealth screen you need to buy a set of furniture, a set of cars and a set of paintings. It does not have to be the same day but it does have to be the same playthrough.
The easiest way to attain a large amount of personal wealth is when you have a mission to make $X money on an industry. For example ‘Make $250,000 in coffee-related markets.’ Target that industry, short it for as much as you possibly can and lobby it’s value down, however be careful not to lower it so much the industry receives TIC intervention. When it’s low sell for a profit then immediately go long on it for as much as you can and lobby it’s value up once it’s high sell again for a profit and repeat. Any money made over the quota required for the mission goes directly into your personal wealth, you can earn millions in a day easily.
You might accidentally cause a PR intervention from doing this but unless it is your 5th time causing an intervention you will just get a warning from your boss.
Mogul
