    Hello.

    What is being described is currently expected behavior.  The Gallery does not save household funds.  (You can edit the funds through the money cheat if you need).

    Also, even though the Story Panels do not display in CAS after importing a Sim from the Gallery, the Sim's traits, career, and skills should still be saved, which you will notice once the Sim is placed in Live Mode.

I can confirm this. I started a new game without mods after updating, created a sim (an alien) using story mode saved to my gallery, did not share it, loaded it again just now to edit it some more before possibly playing it and the story mode panels to the right of the of CAS were missing. Creating a sim, saving it to my gallery and editing it several times before playing is my normal workflow.  I would expect the story mode elements to remain in CAS if the sim has only been saved locally. If I place the sim in world she does have skills and a career, but just the basic starting money, though.
