Having well-populated Outposts with raider dealers set up (shops) will give you access to more money, whether from tribute chests or from simply being able to sell loot in that town.

This prevents you having to put your raider goons to work and ensures they have enough food. Naturally, more supplies should come in as well.

Building up your Settlements before turning them into vassals, you can feed more raiders with fewer vassals. This allows you to make more raider settlements and get much more food from the daily tribute.

For the completionists out there who intend to reclaim the raider settlements, be careful as the retake can glitch. After killing all the raiders the game still thinks there are survivors and won't let u retake the settlement.

I've been reading about this and the reclamation process is very broken so only attempt Nuka-World once you have the else you will have to start over .
arcana75
Another odd thing about reclaiming settlements, during the Shanks questline, u have to extort a settlement into providing food for raiders. To reclaim this extorted settlement back, there's no peaceful way, which was possible when converting settlements over to Raider by talking them out, which is ridiculous.
