well to get the Death ending, it doesn't matter how you resolve your money issue
on weekends make sure to allow acoite to "laze around" regularly
"grant its wish and hope it leaves you alone" (pizza delivery)
"channel the power of the undead" (for the girl with a huge backpack's wish)
upgrade insight to 35
"agree" (certainly a lich)
upgrade soul navigation to 30
"deny your connection" (after first time meeting death)
upgrade compassion to 50
"give mental health advice" (filmmaker)
upgrade the abyss or "the divine order" to "25"
"refuse" (chtulhu)
i believe that the rest doesn't matter and does not affect it in any way
but! if you get the Pantheon reputation < 7 but you're not on probation (you haven't killed the pizza delivery guy) so after a failed bank robberiy you're not immediately banished by Basilicus Solis) you go to the Heavens and try to get financial help from Caishen and fail (week 21), you get another extra scene with Death next week titled 'Solitude'
then money check can be passed by having successful followers > 3
