First Week of Fall (week 5) ... The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly ... 😆🤣😂
One of the great things about the challenge and living outside, is when you can hear folks protesting in the park next to your lot during a thunderstorm and show up in time to notice Jessica Willow got struck by lightning waving her sign around.
However ... The police won't show up to remove any burglars and you better be able to take care of them yourself,
A lot of things changed with the Seasons for Kathy. She is a bit worried because she still hasn't found a Life Fruit seed and her garden has already frozen once. The growing seasons left in the challenge are either questionable or nonexistent. Anyway ... Kathy did take the opportunity to knock out at least 10 hours of Community Service raking leaves at a few local establishments (ones she doesn't own).
Kathy advanced her Writing skills and wrote a Romance Novel that will bring in an additional 2452 simoleons a week in royalties. She did so using the computers at the GreenWire Java Hut and Internet Cafe. It was also a great place for meeting folks and having a little fun.
With the gardening and fishing slowing down and not consuming as much time, Kathy took a great deal of the insects and butterflies she had been catching to the Research Center, and after enough research she started turning them into Plasma Bugs (netting a total of 20400 simoleons). it took a few days and failed attempts, but Kathy advanced her skills in Science greatly doing so.
Which leads us back to a choice she made during the Summer. Kathy had spent some time studying Martial Arts during the Summer and even advanced to a point she could break Space Rocks looking for gems. It was time consuming and didn't always fit her schedule. It also had a decent return in money when cutting the gems and consigning them, but not enough to kick her to a new level. She did happen to find a Pink Diamond though, which she saved and never cut.
After advancing in her Science skills, Kathy analyzed the Pink Diamond a dozen times, then cloned a dozen Pink Diamonds. On Saturday, Kathy took the dozen cloned gems to the Elixir Shop, cut them into heart shaped gems, then directly sold the cut gems and dust from her inventory for a total of 96499 simoleons ... 🤣
Kathy immediately went to town to buy the Hospital and the Stadium. At the end of Kathy's fifth week in the Challenge, as long as she doesn't sell or lose the Pink Diamond she has ... She can make roughly 100000 simoleons a day. She won't do that because it would get boring for the remaining 11 weeks and there are still some other challenge requirements she needs to get done ... But money is no longer a question for the rest of her little Sim life.
Lifetime Rewards Purchased: Meditative Sleep, and Fast Learner
Net Worth: Kathy has 595 simoleons in her bank account ... And 461552 simoleons in investments and property ... 🤣
Happy Simming ... 💖
