This is pretty simple. There are a few player safehouses near Grove Street, the nearest of which is south of the Grove in Willowfield near the Cluckin' Bell. It costs $10,000 to purchase.
Thankfully, unlike the 360 port, cash drops from civilians and enemies you kill in this version. The quickest and easiest way to get $10,000 so soon at the start of the game is to kill the drug dealers (Easily recognizable as the two most common varieties wear either a black beanie and black tank top or a white hoodie with the hood pulled up over a baseball cap. They also stop walking and hold their hands together down in front of their body) hanging around near Grove Street, Jefferson, or other more suburban areas. Killing them (easily done via car so they don't fight back) grants you an easy $2,000 and their pistol. Kill five of them, drive to Willowfield and buy the safehouse to pop the achievement.
This is my first guide. Any feedback is appreciated, if you give a thumbs down, please let me know why and I'll improve for the next guide.

You can also do the pimping mission which is west off big smokes house in a gas station since you have to do it anyway for 100% completion this will net you $10k and you kill 2 birds with one stone.

First guide, quite good. Plus really handy tip for a quick cash and ammo for little effort, at the start anyway.

Use the Inside Track Betting Shop (located under intersection of freeways in Los santos, closest save house is grove street until you purchase one near glen park, which would bag you this achievement)
Save before you go bet, then bet everything on the highest odd, in my experience you have to lose and reload twice before hitting the win on third try... It make take less or more attempts
Just save, go bet, if you lose then reload save and repeat
I made just over 2 million in 10 mins, so worth it as you'll need a lot of ammo and armour for the gangs and main story
