Save your money. Most character and weapon upgrades cost a lot. There is a great possibility that you will finish the game with only one maxed weapon. For that reason, don't buy unneeded upgrades and ammunition for weapon you don't use often. Even later in the game, when you will be getting thousand of Wages, you will quickly find out that still you can't afford all upgrades.
Earn on missions. Enemies, even the strongest ones, don't leave much after their death in comparison to the sums that you need to buy weapons and upgrades. Even 200 Wages isn't much when an special weapon upgrade costs 20000. Usually, you will earn more on completing a "kill 100 demons" task than from killing those enemies in the street. For that reason, better focus on completing tasks than street fighting. Unless those battles are a part of the task or you want to challenge enemies like Archduke, whose killing is worth few thousand Wages. You will earn quite decent amount of money on destroying the Spires. You can get nice income from tasks than doesn't require much effort as well - killing a specific amount of demons, running for a specific distance or opening the Blackbeard Chests. In general, whatever you will do, sooner or later you will get money for it.
Earn on collectibles. Audio Tomes allows you to earn twice - first when you find them, second time for completing tasks related to them. It works similar with the Comments, especially since you can collect them two times. Glyphs are a good source of income as well, just as the chests opened by them. Because of that, whenever you're in need of money, look around for books or keys to the chests. In a short amount of time you are capable of collecting even tens of thousands of Wages.
Earn on vehicles. Tasks related to the Comet car, ambulance or Sinterpol car offers nice rewards and are required for finishing the game in 100%. Additionally, they are light, easy and quite enjoyable. Especially the ambulance, which is hard to find and even harder to take control of. Getting it is a reward all itself.
Invest in superpowers. You have six of them at your disposal. You will mostly use the flying and quick running, so invest much of your resources in them. Pick up two from other four Arcanes which you consider most useful. Whenever you will have free points, invest first in chosen Arcanes and only later in other ones.
You don't need to save souls. There is a lot of Soul Clusters in the game, during a short fly through the city you can collect even three hundred of them. You are capable of quickly collecting as much Souls as you need to upgrade all needed abilities. Only exception is the beginning of the game when every soul is extremely valuable. Later, unless you're buying everything that you can, you can stop worrying about saving them.
Don't collect all soul clusters. Unless you want to complete the game in 100%. You will be able to upgrade most Arcane to high level without the need to collect almost one thousand Soul Clusters found in the city. Collect those that you will find on your way, but don't concentrate on them. If you invest your points wisely, you won't be suffering from the lack of those.
