@Meeshelby - I am currently playing a TS3 challenge that isn't on the list and I think it should be. I didn't write it but it is a lot of fun. I am sure it can be easily adapted to TS4, especially now that they have <3 toddlers <3 ! It is called Escape to Nowhere. Here is a quick overview:
The gist of the challenge is your sim and their three children flee from a bad situation and start out with very little money and nowhere to live - hence "Escape to Nowhere". This is a fun take on many other 'rags to riches' challenges but isn't a legacy that goes many generations. In fact you are supposed to accomplish your goal in 60 sim days!
As in all other types of these challenges, you start with little money and are restricted as to where you can live and how you can earn money during the different phases of the challenge. The twist here is you are also faced with a series of daily random events to deal with - some good and some very stressful. This is the part that intrigued me to do the challenge and the fact that it is a fairly short one. The ultimate goal is for your sim to eventually save up enough money to buy their own home for their runaway family in 60 days or less.
The challenge was created by MistyDW at MTS and the rules can be found here: http://modthesims.info/t/522017
