[@noone9177]

Some tips cause I love playing as a vet, store owner or restaurant owner: - make a "house" inside a room, with all the essentials a sim need to live and LOCK the door so only you can have access. Otherwise the workers will keep procrastinating and not working.... - put the prices all the way up, really create an extortion dinner - as soon as possible buy the store things that give you bonus like the simoleon neon light, or the signs that attract more clients....

He loves the industry; he loves the smog. Jim has vowed to devote his life to do everything in his power to turn the nasty green (yuck) neighborhood into the smog heaven of his dreams!

This is a silly, unrelated story, but Kayla saying finding ~$900 in the dumpster is the best thing that's ever happened to her made me really appreciate how lucky I was. I decided to go on a rags-to-riches story as well not too long ago. Now... I don't know much ( anything ) about collectibles, and I'd only JUST gotten the Eco pack, so I didn't really know what I was doing. I made a teen, I gave her $25 and a lot in fall ( wanted to give her some chance of surviving ) and I just... tried to survive. Jobs were impossible because of school and how tired she'd be when she got home, and then I'd have to go to the gym for the shower/bathroom/food stuff, and -- and it was just atrocious. While dumpster diving I found a TV and was like "WOO, I CAN FINALLY GET HER SOME FUN!" Come home to find it's a $10k TV. I was stunned. I felt like I was cheating. But of course I sold it and built her a house. All this time I thought maybe everyone finds $10k TVs and using the Eco pack was like, a cheating path in the rags-to-riches story, so... thank you, Kayla, for making me feel like that's not true, haha!
