This achievement isn't as hard as it might seem at first, there's no sure fire way to getting the achievement so there's no sure fire solution, what I can do is provide you with some tips that I hope will help you get this!
First off you need to be playing on Hard, you just won't be getting enough points on a lower difficulty so playing on Hard is an absolute must!
While playing through the campaign make sure to taunt after every kill, it gives you a +25% bonus and really racks up, try and combo kills together too, more kills means more money and again, taunt! +25% really does add up quick!
Destroy random objects when you get the chance, some levels have abandoned cars in the streets and stuff, blow them up, sometimes it makes the difference!
Throughout missions you'll be presented with different scenarios, most of them are ridiculously easy to fulfil and each one you complete rewards you with a +25k bonus!
Lastly, use the videos below to find all the targets/posters in missions, without doing this you simply won't get the achievement, the videos also work as a great heads up to enemy locations and when to expect scenarios!
I decided to only link the video guide for the first mission to prevent this from become a ridiculously long page, however Swagger has been kind enough to make a guide to getting Gold on every level, check out his youtube channel here for them; http://bit.ly/bXGp10
It won't let me directly link to his 50 Cent guides because there's no direct link to them, instead I've linked to his channel, from that link just click the little grid in the top right hand corner, then search; "50 Cent" and just browse for the video you need!

Just to add, as I noticed the other solutions do not mention this. The achievement will unlock after Mission 5, Chapter 4 provided you earned at least a gold in all of the previous missions and chapters.
