I myself am new to the game but I have read hundreds of forums in my short while of playing and I've consolidated a few easily achievable merits:

1. Domino effect - Defeat a player with the domino honor bar

An easy target is L3MILK[1999595], a level 4 target with total stats of just 99. As this is a very common target, its life will almost always be low.

2. Pocket money - Make an investment in the bank

You'll get the merit as soon as you deposit any amount in the bank.

Go to City->Bank->Type amount->Select duration->Invest

3. Gone fishing - Be defeated by a trout

Ask a faction member to attack you with a trout*.

4. Historian - Read a chronicle

Click here -> Choose any article -> Read until the merit shows up(max. of 10 mins. You can leave that open in another tab)

5. Landlord - Lease one of your properties to someone

Buy a trailer for $5000 by clicking here. Rent it to someone (a faction member can help out) for at least 3 days.

6. Pious - Donate a total $100,000 to the church

Buying 100 beer from Bits N' Bobs and selling it on the item market will get you more than 100k.

7. Forgiven - Pray at church for ~ 2 weeks

Click here and pray for 2 weeks straight.

8. The Affronted - Infuriate all interviewers in starter jobs

Until you reach level 3, you can only work in starter jobs. These are - Army, Grocer, Law Casino, Medical and Education. With certain dialogue options, you can piss off the interviewers. If you do that for all the jobs, then you get the 'Affronted' merit. Don't worry, you can reapply in about 3 days. Here's a guide by Kekker[1761] explaining step-by-step on how to achieve this merit.

Guide for Affronted

9. Church Mouse - Get mugged for $1

Keep $21 in your wallet and wait to get mugged. You can also ask a faction member to mug you*.

10. Woodland camo - Win 5 attacks

Attack any 5 people and win. Simple as that.

11. Lean - Attain 100 total stats

Train at the gym in the beginning to get increase your stats.

Always remember, higher your 'Happy' and better the gym, more will your gym gains be.

You can increase your 'happy' by moving into a better property. I suggest renting a decent property at first. You can do that by clicking here. Sometimes, you can even find a lower happy ranch for ZERO RENT in there.

12. Flatline - Defeat someone in one hit

There are level 1 deserters whom you can easily attack and defeat in one hit. Ask faction members with donator status to find you someone with advanced search.

13. Semper Fortis, Manu Forti and Vae Victis - Defeat someone with stats more than, 2x and 5x than yours

An easy target for this is penguinbob [1636674], because of his uneven stats. Though his total stats are more than 2.7 million, his defence, speed and dexterity are 22, 23 and 18 respectively, making him easy to kill in one shot.

14. Spinner - Spin the roulette wheel 1000 times

Everyday you get 75 casino tokens to play with. If you spend every single one of it in the roulette table, you can get this merit in 14 days.

Click here to go to the roulette table in the casino. Drag one $10 chip onto the red diamond and another $10 chip onto the black diamond (This way, you don't lose money except on the rare cases that the ball falls on '0') Spin the roulette wheel by clicking on it. When the round completes, click 'Repeat Bets'. Repeat this till you run out of casino tokens.

15. Spray and Pray - Fire 1000 rounds

Buy a primary weapon with a high rate of fire. A cheap one is the P90 you can get from Big Al's Guns Shop in the city. You can get it cheaper in the item market.

Keeping shooting down people with your gun until you get this merit.

16. Love Struck - Defeat a married couple

Take them down both and you get the 'Love struck' merit. -Gabby- [2144849] (Level 4) and Scubap [2144515] (Level 6) are relatively easy targets.
