In order to get this achievement you must buy EVERY item and upgrade for the equipment. This includes all the gold skins. Each of those costs $5000 and between 3 to 5 of the gold coins. Meaning you are going to need some serious cash, coin and diamond. Like over $200k, 150 coin and about 50 diamond. But don't worry, I got you. 
First things first. You are going to want to play through the game at least once to familiarize yourself with the mechanics and tools of this game. Some of the physics of this game are quite odd at times.
Once you've completed your first run of the game you ought have a decent chunk of items unlocked. We are going to need a very specific loadout to optimize our experience.
For my loadout I use: basic hose, fireaxe (you'll need the sharpened bit, lightened haft, and weighted axe head upgrades) throwing axe (inferno axe, flaming axe, more axes, aerodynamic axe upgrades) grappling hook, breaching charge (faster detonation, remote detonation, Area of effect destruction Backdraft Protection upgrades) Healing needle (larger shot storage, modern medicine, compressed air launcher upgrades) and lastly a stim pen. This tool loadout is built for destruction, I will get to to the WHY soon.
Next we need the correct attire to make money
What I used: Baseball cap for double jump, University jacket, +20% Movement speed increase, Embr eats gloves, physics carry speed +20%, wastemates pants, theft noticed chance +75% (don't worry, for what we are doing it won't matter) AND +15% movement speed.
Now that we are loaded for Bear and fast enough to outrun one, we can get into the actual solution!!
Load yourself into "First Ave: Demolition", make sure the fire spread and speed slider is at 1.0. From here go ham. Just destroy everything. My technique was to break down the front door, run forward and turn off the sprinkler, throw a fire axe into the kitchen to detonate the red barrel. Then i would run back to the closet in the back left corner of the dining room and place a breach charge on the door, as i run away i would detonate its, usually getting a red or green barrel in the process. After that run upstairs into the living room, look for a barrel to put a breach charge onto, and detonate. Do a 180 and run down the hall putting a charge on each door in the hall and detonating. I would say 9 times out of 10 it would work to blow any barrels in those rooms. When you reach the end of the hall look right, there are some stacked pallets, and usually a barrel of some type, breach 'em, before detonating it, jump from the window at that you walked past to get here and land outside. Take an immediate left to circle around to the workshop's double doors, you guessed it, breach 'em. By this point the house is near ready to go, all we have to do is blow a few more barrels, what I like to do is Chuck the rest of my inferno axes around the rooms in the basement. Always be mindful not to cut off your means of escape, not because you'll die and fail but because time is money here.
So now the house is destroyed and you've made it to the escape vehicle. This ENTIRE run should take you around 1 minute. (Speeds will vary based on skill and familiarity with route I was able to do it as fast as 53 seconds) Your cash reward will be between $1500-$1600 each run. Without a doubt this was the fastest means of making money i found playing this.
Okay so we have our money means handled, now how do we get Embr coin and diamonds, well you can do EVERY SINGLE BONUS MISSION for what is essentially scraps, or you can take advantage of what I assume to be a game but (or feature depending who's asking)
This was taken directly from the game's discord in reference as to how often gold coin and diamond spawn in the wild: "Yeah, it's every 3 successes for gold, and every 7 for diamonds"
So this means while you are running demo missions you can also be making gold coin and diamond, provided you make your way around to the 3 locations in the First Ave house to find the cash cubes. They ALWAYS spawn in the same 2 locations: in the closet of the dining room, a safe inside the computer room (the door behind the pallets we use the breach charge on) and lastly in the back of the workshops storage room (next to the breaker box)
Okay so we now know the frequency of the spawns, how does this help us? Every 3 successful missions for gold and 7 for diamond. That means after the 21st success BOTH will spawn. That is our window.
Confirmed by Geometric Cube
When you get both a gold and a diamond to spawn, collect them and return them to the work truck. DO NOT FINISH THE MISSION, I REPEAT DO NOT FINISH THE MISSION
As soon as you have both gold and diamond in your truck, pause the game and abandon the mission. You read that right. Abandon the mission. The game will give you a game over screen. BUT your gold and and diamond will tick up. When you reload the mission, both the Diamond and Coin will still be in the level. You can repeat this method indefinitely. I was floored when I discovered this the other night. I went from having 6 gold and 12 diamond to 105 gold and 45 diamond in 2 hours of grinding.
Listen, I don't know if this will get patched out soon but please act fast. This method is all about speed and destruction. I know this guide has been excessively wordy and i am sorry for that because I too hate wordy guides, but this achievement needs this much description and I couldn't find anything for this game online. Feel free to message me with questions
Good Luck and Happy Hunting!

I played enough successful missions and the gold/diamond and showing up at the same time and the abandon then replay is working.
When we get started on our demo missions you should be checking the cash locations each time for the first 21 times. Why? Because we want the run where both of them spawn. When this happens, take a deep breath because I'm about to save you 10s of hours of grinding....When you get both a gold and a diamond to spawn, collect them and return them to the work truck.

I recommend taking the fire spread down to 0 on the pickup rounds. In the rush, you might knock over explosive items.
I modified the layout and have been getting high $1500 - $1600 almost every time (current best: $1675). Just throwing axe, breaching charge, stim pen (not used yet). Gear is ox head (tips +75%), mall elf shirt (tips +20%, theft notice -40%), firefighting gloves (initial burn -15%), wastemates pants.
Throw axe at door. Breach charge dining room door, throw axe near kitchen closet, throw axe at explosive in kitchen entrance. Upstairs throw axe into living room (aim for explosive if present, middle of room if not), turn and breach charge door on left, breach charge object inside right room, breach charge door at end of hall, breach charge explosive/pallet, run through fire and breach pile. Jump out window and head to left, fall and breach windows, enter second window and keep breaching items, starting with first door and heading towards downstairs exit door. Sometimes I'll go into the big room with pillars. By the time I get to the exit door, the :30 timer may have started.

Thanks for the tip, very good time saver. Still working today (with a team of 3 players it's very easy for the 3 spawn locations, one each). The amount of coins, money and diamonds needed for all the upgrades is very insane, thks

If you are in the late game grinding money for all those golden tools...Here is a method my brother and I found. Works for 1 or 2 players.
NOTE: It appears this solution may only work for the Xbox Series S/X version of the game. It also worked on XCloud (streaming).
Description from video:
Level
Crab and Go: Claw Club (Upper North Side)
Mission
Salvage
Loadout
Lunar New Year Ox Head; Mall Elf Shirt; Embr Eats Glove; Wastemates Pants
Strategy
I put Grappling Hook in my first item slot to save time. Run around to the left side of the building and grapple your way up to the middle floor. Now you'll want to break out the glass ceilings as quick as possible. Do not walk on the glass floor or bump the furniture as it's falling down - this could cause the glass floor to break, which sends all your salvage into the inferno below.
Make sure to pick up the money that falls from one of them - you can drop it immediately. It counts it as salvage at that point. In the video it took ~30 seconds for $2100. But you can get it in 27 seconds if everything goes smoothly.
2 Player Strategy
This also works with 2 people...usually. 1 person should go up and start breaking ceilings. The other person should enter at the ground level through the glass on the left and toss out a cash register. You need the extra bit of cash.
The second person can then run around to the right and grapple up. Once you get in a rhythm, you can jump over the ledge on the right and grapple in 1 swift motion! The second person should then be able to break the glass ceiling with the money in it (try to grab the money in the air to save time). Drop the money immediately and grapple to the exit! You should both arrive at the same time. In an absolutely perfect run we were able to get it down to 25 seconds.
I say it works usually because some times you end up being just a couple dollars short. If that happens, just find something small to salvage from the ground floor.

The glass at bottom breaks every time
By ThatFilthyLopez on 19 Jan 2022 21:35
Interesting method, buddy .. But I have a question, what do you have to do to prevent the glass from breaking under these rooms? I did exactly your step-by-step method, but every time I shoot a room glass everything goes straight down to the bottom. The only thing I can do is grab the money (when it falls) and instead of 28 seconds the mission takes about 5 minutes.

I haven’t seen any posts/videos about this so I figured I’d make my own guide. I found another level that makes more money per run even though it takes about 30 seconds longer than the First Ave: Demolition method. I can make between $2,200 - $2,300 every (about) 1.30 minutes which is about $600 - 800 more per run depending on how fast you get it. I got this down pretty fast so grinding this route makes more money faster in order to buy all the upgrades (this doesn’t include the coins or diamonds which the other guides are great for).
Make sure your fire spread and speed is at 1.0 and fire particle range is 50!
Level:
Empire Towers (1st district)
Mission:
Demolition
Loadout:
Tools w/ Upgrades:
Axe (Sharpened Bit / Lightened Half / Weighted Axe Head)
Throwing axe (Inferno Axe / Flaming Axe / Aerodynamic Axe / More Axes)
Grappling Hook (Extended Spool )
These tools w/ these upgrades are incredibly important in making this run as efficient as possible.
Gear: (not required but recommended especially for the extra tips)
Lunar New Year Ox Head (Tips +75%)
Mall Elf Shirt (Tips +20%)
Firefighter Gloves (Initial Burn Damage Taken -15%)
Firefighter Pants (Move Speed +10% / Initial Burn Damage Taken -22%)

I'm nailing this one as the extra cash just makes the grind easier and it really isn't taking much longer to complete
By RushNSprayz on 07 Feb 2022 22:22
Cheers, this worked great for getting the cash needed. Was managing 2k in 30-40 secs.

To buy everything you need about 50 diamonds, 150 gold and 200 thousand dollars.
Let's start with coins and diamonds. Gold money spawns every 3rd game, and diamonds every 7th. That is, in the 21st match we will have both money and diamonds. When you find such a game, put that kind of money in the machine and ALWAYS abandon the mission, then the coins will be counted, but will not disappear from the card.
Now the money. We start the demolition of the house on the first map and go to burn it (fiery throwing axes are suitable for this), if you try, you can do it in a minute and earn 1,500 dollars. By the way, you can farm dollars until you find coins and diamonds in one mission and then farm them.
