@Amuni50 Just to find out what's going on, how much money did they have when you uploaded them ? Did you upload them straight out of CAS or after playing ?

You said you remove all mods/cc but did you have mods/cc in when you uploaded them ? Can you try what happens if you upload without mods/cc to see if the same issue occurs ?

Thank you for responding. My sims would have varying amounts, but they averaged 1,400 simoleons. I would create a new game and upload them from my profile page (which means they were my gallery versions). I first heard of the problem when three separate players complained about it on my sims. One sim was new, but one was quite old. 

I did use MCCC (the only mod I use) and cc, but I have always used those and never had a problem. When I removed MCCC and all cc, I still had the problem. I even repaired my game, but it didn't help. 

I'm going to experiment some more today. I've never had this problem before the most recent patch.

    I removed my mods, tray, and saves folders, and then I reinstalled the game. I created a new game without my old files and had the same problem. I deleted all of my newer cc, moved my files back in, and I tried it again, only to find the same problem. I am at my wit's end.

    I think I understand why my gallery sims have very little money. The money they have is left over from when I place them in the world while creating them, if that makes sense.

      @Amuni50  This is probably related to the new way we've been given to transfer money in the pre DU patch or DU, I forget which.  New sims still get the 20K or whatever just like they used to. But for older sims already in game, when you move them, you now get to decide how much money goes with them when you move them.  But to solve your problem until the gurus make a change, I suggest you use one of the ingame cheats (kaching, motherlode, etc.) to set the amount of money a sim or family has before you upload them if you are uploading them from an active household.  As for the ones that you've already uploaded, simply tell people use the freerealestate on cheat to place the sims and then one of the money cheats to set the amount of money a household has.  Not the best solution but it should help improve the situation.

        If I understand you correctly, the sims I already have in the gallery will not work for players unless they use a work around. Is that right? What a mess!! I'm curious as to why more people haven't mentioned this problem.
