Re: Sims 4 - No Starter Funds
@playedbysam Unfortunately, I could not reproduce the issue in my game - aside from one aspect. I made a new game and two different new Sims and in both cases they showed with the $20,000 initial funds. I found that the 'Motherlode' and 'rosebud', and 'kaching' money cheats worked as expected, however the 'Money' cheat did not work:
• Money cheat set exact funds:
Money 100 sets at 100 Simoleons
Money 000 sets to Zero

You may want to try a game repair in case your expansions did not not download properly/completely. Please click the spoiler here for directions on how to do this:
- Open Origin, click ‘Game Library’ then right-click Sims 4 > Repair Game
- If you’re on PC, make sure to let it run until it has completed all repairs (it will do the base game first, then run through each of your DLCs (Expansion Packs, Game Packs and Stuff Packs).
- If you’re on Mac, the repair in Origin will only repair your base game. Learn why and how to repair your DLCs (Expansion Packs, Game Packs and Stuff Packs) at this link: https://bluebellflora.com/2020/06/17/repairing-sims-4-packs-in-origin/
Just to eliminate this possibility, do you have Mods &/or CC? If so please try removing them and the following cache file as directed in the spoiler tag below:
Are you noticing that all of your new Sims have no funds or just random ones? I did find this Bug Report, so perhaps it is somewhat random?
