OK, I didn't understand your first trick and the second everyone already knew. Why exactly would anyone want to pay for them. If you want tips and tricks, these are mine:

1. FLY PLANES EARLY

It is possible to fly the Dodo or Shamal as soon as you can save the game for

the very first time. First of all jack a hardtop car (a car that's got a roof).

Now head for the airport entrance located at the south of the map. Park the car

on the left so that the actual roof is as near to the lower fence. Then get out

and jump on top of the car, run forward at the fence then press square. He now

grabs onto the top of the fence, press square again to jump over.

Turn right and right again round the entrance and head onto the other side of

the ramp. You now see a smaller fence. Walk up to it and press square. Keep

going forward to get to the Dodo. It now goes left and right using L2 and R2,

same as a helicopter. Further along this side there is also a Shamal.

You can fly both planes around unlocked areas, but when you fly over locked

areas, the area restrictions kick in and you instantly get 4 stars. Only when

you're in the air, there are fighters that missile you down. San Fierro and Las

Venturas' planes remain locked until you get the pilot's license. You can enter

the airports except that none of the vehicles, including parked cars, allow you

to get in. Although San Fierro features a large propeller plane, and a

stunt plane with built in gun.

2. GET MILLIONS EASILY

Similarly to flying planes early, you can have $50 million or more as soon as

it's possible to save. Do the cycling mission and do the first level twice more

to earn $12000. Then head to the house near the park with a lake at the centre

(in the north section of Los Santos), to buy a $10000 house. Save the game, then

go to the nearby betting shop, shown on the map that comes with the game. Go in

and go up to one of the machines. Press triangle, the select the bottom horse.

Add your bet of all your money, and bet. If you lose, reload the game. If you

win, save and then go back and bet with your higher amount of money. Eventually

you will have more money than you will ever need. Also, the odds are thought

to be much better than what the machine says, being an estimated 5-1.

3. GET WEAPON SKILL QUICKLY

A great way to develop skill quickly for a particular gun, assuming you have

enough ammo, is to put a car in your garage. Then shoot the hell out of the

car, every hit counts as a headshot. When the car starts to burn run away, let

the garage close and go back to your now perfect car. Start again, very soon

you will have a massive weapon skill.

4. GET A PARACHUTE

Heard about the parachute, want one? The highest building in each city has one

at the top, in Los Santos, which is the city I asked for a parachute in the

most,

there is a building at south-east downtown, enter the door and up the stairs to

the parachute. There is also one located just northwest of where a big east-west

road meets a big north-south road (at the top of Los Santos city, not at the big

intersection). One on top of Mount Chillad, and quite a few others. I may

eventually get round to a parachute guide but as you can see I've got quite a

lot of other stuff to do, besides normal life and playing SA for fun.

5. VIGILANTE CRIMINALS KILL THEMSELVES

You will more than certainly be aware that once you leave a police vehicle during a vigilante mission, you'll have 60 seconds to get to another police vehicle. But whilst in this mode, if you enter any building (through a downward arrow) the criminals will start disappearing. After 45 seconds exit and get back in your vehicle. Exit and back to the shop. Keep repeating this process and you will soon have finished all of the required vigilante missions.

6. NO BIKE OPPONENTS

So, you've started a really hard biking mission or simply want to play without being hassled by those annoying opponents. Simply machine gun them and they will quickly die, lose their vehicle or be rendered slow and rubbish. This is very effective as if you only shoot their tyres and they'll be spinning all over the place crashing into the nearby tree at an absurd angle.
