Making a 'realistic' cyberpunk game with capital as a central critique is honestly kind of a hard sell. It's too close to home, and all your adventures are about making rent, which you already do in real life. Might be easier as a computer game

Citizen Sleeper is more or less this. One of the main mechanics is scrounging money for medicine so your robot body doesn't fall apart. It's great!
