Easy "A what?" Achievement for Thief Simulator - Xbox One

For this achievement, you'll first need complete all story missions in all 3 neighborhoods. Once you complete the last objective in Industrial and the credits roll, you can start NG+. Go back to the main menu and start a new profile, you'll now have the ability to select NG+. You objective is to buy the cloaking device for $150,000.

There are some big differences with NG+ that you need to be aware of:
-You start with all abilities unlocked, so XP doesn't matter
-You don't get to bring over anything you had done previously, so you'll have to buy all of your gear, the van, and the hideout again
-You only get $100 to start
-Locks and tenant patterns have changed
-All neighborhoods are unlocked (although you'll need certain gear to do anything in them, so you'll basically be doing them in order anyway)

To start with, you'll actually need quite a bit more than $150,000 to finish this because you'll need to buy a ton of gear back, unless you plan on getting there $8 at a time. Your first priority should just be to buy all of the useful gear. Use your starting $100 to buy one of each of the first 2 lockpicks, then go to houses 109/110/111 to pick up the crowbar behind and start looting what you can. From here, you'll want to buy anything that will help you earn more money, especially things like car stealing tools, safe cracking tools, jewelry tools, etc. Most of these will quickly pay for themselves by giving you access to better items. You will want to skip unnecessary items like night vision and the hideout.

There are some items that each player will have to decide whether they should buy. The van is very useful for hopping the fence in 202 (which has tons of great loot) and for storing more items per trip, but that's only beneficial for the XP bonus. However, it's a big $30K and you don't need to carry out so many items per trip. The hacking laptop is also debatable as it will help occasionally, but you can easily complete your objective without it. The car key cloner is a tough call. Cars are worth a ton of money, but the 2 that need the cloner are hard to steal anyway and you might better off using your time and money other just getting other items.

You'll start in Greenview as you need to buy all of the necessary tools. Best approach is to get all of the Rent-a-thug objectives and complete them while scooping up everything you can get along the way. The important difference with NG+ is that XP doesn't matter so neither does your rating. Don't be afraid to smash and grab to complete your goals as long as you can get off the map before the cops get you. Also make sure you are selling as many items as you can on BlackBay for extra money. You definitely want to steal both cars in this neighborhood and fully break them down (maybe more than once) for a quick and easy few thousand. Once you have completed the Rent-a-thug objectives and bough the basic tools, move on to Richie R. for much better loot.

You'll make the bulk of your money in Richie R. Remember to complete Rent-a-thug objectives and steal/sell items on BlackBay. Basically at this point you should have all the tools you need, so just move house to house stealing all of the valuable items. There's easily enough money on this map to get you to $150,000. If you've already beaten the main game, this all should be old hat for you.

The Industrial map has the highest value loot in the game and you would be able to get your $150,000 here no problem, but you can't access any of the buildings without the the hacking laptops, and they're pretty expensive so it's probably not worth buying them. I was able to easily complete the achievement in just Greenview and Richie R. Once you have $150,000 on hand, just go to your computer and buy the cloaking device to get your achievement.
