Check the walkthrough, i did all optimal choices + cheating at the casino via save scumming (which helped a bit but don't seem to be needed) and now have left 841 remaining after buying everything required of me so far.
On the topic of the in-game currency, do you guys this will be for it? Given the stocks for the company dropped and the implant ban, i don't think it could be used for money IRL anymore (or it will have heavy reduced value). In game, well to be honest some NPCs may still have use for them, or maybe Chop Chop or Wenlin will still have offers for us and for some contrived reason will need to be paid in (relatively) worthless currency.
I think that we either won't use it for anything anymore and the scene we got with them this update was "you managed to save so much", or we will have single place where will dump all of the remaining money.
On the topic of money, i can see Wenlin being the type of character that possibly don't mind risking her life in pursue of profit. Thou this is colored by the flag we get for haggling with her over the map exposition, which makes me all but sure we will see her again. Most likely without Chop Chop, given the hint he is part of the bigger picture. If we follow the convention of they showing up in each (most) servers on each first visit Orion has, probably next event.
