Not sure if it was just my game being glitchy but I had a sim with this lifetime wish that had her stolen item value reset to zero when she got married - so hold off on the weddings aswell as the travelling just to be sure ;)

Thanks for the heads up! I'll postpone marriage for that sim until I complete the LTW.

I had the same problem with this LTW, nice to see I'm not the only one.

Thanks for the feedback. Seems like a bug and not a weird glitch then.

I googled and found this topic. So it definitely is a glitch, caused by the fact the game will stop seeing stolen goods as stolen when you travel. The topic also holds a solution, hope it works:

Thanks for finding that thread! It looks like this LTW is typically EA buggy. The solution is good to know as my sim steals stuff in the homeworld, but I don't think it will help with traveling. When he was in university the LTW didn't even display the value of how much he stole. And since the items lose their stolen status (but not their lowered value) on returning home, the only fix I can figure out is above (which worked).

As I understood it the stolen goods left at home will be recognized as stolen again as soon as your sims gets home (which technically is nothing more than reopening an old save, nothing happened to it while your sim was gone and even the sim in there is a clone and not the sim you played abroad), but that’s not the case then? Somebody did a lousy job thinking this through when implementing it. Well, what’s new right...? But the only solution then is not travelling (or marrying) till the LTW is achieved? Or were you referring to the MC solution?
