Legacy Add On Challenges

Welcome to my Sims 4 Legacy Builder Add On. This Challenge will be very similar to my Rags to Riches challenge in regards to the building aspect. There will be main goals to complete and extra goals for you to choose from for points if you wish to use them. This challenge is meant to go alongside whatever Legacy challenge you are playing.

If any rules in the challenge go against the rules of your Legacy feel free to pick and choose which one you want to use. If any challenges are repeated in your legacy you may choose only one to gain points from. The main challenges must be completed as part of your legacy challenge in order to consider it finished.

Making Money

The options listed below seem to be what people think are the best ways to make money without having a career.
• Gardening (You can’t use seeds on your own lot until you have a garden but there are plenty of places around town that you can harvest plans from.)
• Painting (Find a lot with an easel and begin painting. If you can’t find an easel around town anywhere I suggest placing one in the park or on another public lot.)
• Writing (The library has full access to computers.)
• Programing/Hacking (Library.)
• Comedy (People say that this isn’t the fastest way to make money but it might help with this challenge. The nightclub has a mic stand that you can use.)
• Musical Instruments (You can make tips by playing the instruments provided for you in town or buy your own once you have built your starter home.)
• Collecting (When I started this challenge myself collecting was a major factor for me in the beginning. I sold the items I found and made some pretty good money off of it.)
• Video Gaming (Isn’t the most profitable earning system but you can still make some money off of playing games.)
• Woodworking. (There's a woodworking bench at the national park in Granite Falls and another one at the Hermit's Hut if you have Outdoor Retreat.)
• Borrowing money. (This takes high charisma.)
• Flower Arranging (If you have Seasons).
• Media Production ( If you have Get Famous).
• Photography.
• Humor & Hijinks Festival, GeekCon (If you have City Living).
