As soon as you establish your headquarters on Great Inagua in Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced, you will realize you will need a lot of money (Reales) to restore all of its facilities and upgrade your Jackdaw ship.
While you will get plenty of money just playing the game normally, there are a few activities you should prioritize to literally swim in Reales and purchase all the items and upgrades you need.

Plundering Ships Is Your Fast Track To Riches
Although there are many ways to get Reales in Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced, none compare to plundering ships.
- Even if they don't carry Reales, you can obtain trade resources that can be sold for a decent profit
- If they do carry Reales, and they are a Frigate-class ship or higher, you can choose to open the Captain's Strongbox to get increased rewards after you have successfully boarded them. The increase in payout is significant - a 500 Reales reward becomes 3000+ with the Strongbox reward
Clear Naval Convoy Missions As Well
Besides plundering regular ships, you can also earn quite a bit of money by clearing Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced's Naval Convoy Missions.
While these are only available for a short amount of time, you will often encounter them as you travel, and you can easily complete them with a handy boarding trick even if your Jackdawn cannot take both the leading ship and its escort on at once. Not all of them carry Reales, but those that do have a lot of them.
In case you want to know where a Naval Convoy is, you can purchase the information from Taverns for a measly 100 Reales.
Other Ways To Make Money
While the above are the best ways to make some serious money as soon as you unlock your hideout, there are a few other ways to earn Reales.
- Open Chests: Keep an eye on your mini-map for collectibles scattered across islands.
- Loot Plantations and clear warehouses
- Send captured ships on missions via the Kenway's Fleet mechanics
- Sell trade goods and animal skins
- Assassins' Contracts: Clearing side objectives also increases payouts.
Many of these activities, however, require way more time than going after ships, so they should be considered as extra activities to complete, and not as your main money-making schemes.
