Great Job = More Money = Less Days Working = Higher Skills = Hap

If you want a lot of money, but you want to try to build up your sim's skills, but you don't have a lot of time. . .do this! Put your sim in the Military career. For pretty much every level, you only work 3-4 days. And when you reach level 10, you only work on Mondays. But, you work from around 5 a.m. To 1 a.m. An all day job. But you can make $6,000 and more in that ONE day! And if you have more than one sim in that feild, PERFECT! It would help if you unlocked the lifetime rewards: Hardly Hungry, Dirt Defiant, and Steel Bladder. That way, once your sim gets home after a hard day's work, all they need to do really is to sleep and build up their fun (: I hope I helped! I think this is a LOT better than a cheat because, unlike cheats, you can still do challanges! Happy money making! XD

Artist sweat shop

Have one elderly sim and then your sim. Get the elderly to make many painting before he dies. After he dies wait a day or two and then sell the paintings. The paintings will be worth more now that the sim has died.


Unlock all cheats

hold L1+L2+R1+R2 at the pause menu, then go to build and buy and select the llama from the decoration section and place it where you want it and then come out of pause click on it and bang on.
