Tropico 5: How to Make Money Easily

Mines and Fisherman’s Wharfs and Logging Camps

Let’s lump these all together for when you’ve put up one of each plantation and ranch. Explore around your island using your Palace’s guards to spot the mines around the mountains and hills. After researching the mining tech, place a couple around, get a wharf on the beach, and get a logging camp where your trees are rich and abundant. You’re all set with these starting raw resources, and you’ll supplement the cash from plantations and ranches. Not to mention that these resources also can benefit your people as well as be packaged within your industry.
