How about if it becomes like real life where Sims can't watch TV or play video games without all sorts of monthly access fees that drain their bank account like a thousand tiny leaks sinking a ship? No more free fun. Everything is now streaming and subscription-based and nothing is owned outright anymore. Gotta pay up every time q sim wants to watch a movie at home or hop on that pc for gaming. Or console either.
More bills might help, but I think there are a lot more encouraging ways to make you want to earn the simoleons and also have simoleon goals for lifestyle needs (outings with friends, special amenities, items with extra special life enhancing features, etc.). A more realistic approach like being sued for beating a sim up, hiring a lawyer, going to active court or even getting locked up and having to pay for bail or legal representation to get your life together would all be great ways to make simoleons more important in your sim story.
