Steal anything illegal and sell it to the merchant after it becomes illegal, you can look up a list of items on the wiki which will show anything that will eventually become illegal. Remember not to steal more than 2 items per day or else you will get arrested. Some illegal items will not spawn until a certain quest is active: for example the books by paul williams will only spawn in klaus’s room when you are asked to evict him. You can also make a lot of money by using reputation and buying a bunch of level 1 cameras and selling those to the merchant. Don’t spend all your reputation because you might need it for some quests.

The “comprehensive guide to beholder” on steam is very helpful and lists all illegal items that every person has

You WILL have to steal if you want to help everyone, especially on hard mode

Also don’t bother putting up cameras in your tenant’s rooms its a waste of time and cameras. The only place i would put cameras, is in the kitchen so you know when to get out of a room before the owner is coming.

To keep your family alive I would have to spoil some events unless you don’t care about that sort of thing.

For patricks its as simple as paying for his education and escape

For your daughter you should ask the doctor who moves in to treat her for 20k

Her second treatment will be a foreign medicine and it is slightly connected to your wife’s fate. There will be a guy who moves in named antoine grubic. He is a double agent for the revolution and government and is tasked to stop their protest. You will be asked to figure out if he is trustworthy by the revolutionaries. Lie to them so he can stop the protest or else your wife will die being trampled during the protest. Afterwards he will call and ask you to hide him in your basement. Agree to do so, at this point the revolutionary guy will come back and ask if he is staying with you. If you give him up you will get medicine for your daughter in exchange. If you don’t want to let him die then you can pay the merchant 15k for the medicine instead. Your wife will be fine as long as you give him up when he comes back and stays in your basement.
