Mooch off your Neighbor Challenge! :)
Mooch your way to the top! There are all kinds of ways to make money in this version of the sims. I love playing the Sims 4 Room Challenge & live off the land type challenges and thought: "H...

Minnie deMoocher has arrived.
Her first first day (not a typo, keep reading) went well. At 8:00am, she stood in front of her newly purchased lot, trying to decide how to proceed with her life of moochery. She bought a few backpack doodads, then headed downtown. Minnie worked diligently, gaining a few skill levels and completing her first Aspiration Milestone -- yes, she was fierce! Struck up a conversation with a lovely young woman named Wren, who invited Minnie home for dinner. Well, technically, Minnie simply waltzed into Wren's house and started making dinner, but who are we to quibble over details? Minnie was so comfortable in Wren's home she decided to stay the night. Sadly, just as Minnie was about to climb into bed, her world crashed around her.
Literally. Game froze with Minnie attempting to get into bed.
When I restarted the game, there was Minnie at 8:00am, standing in front of her empty lot, trying to decide how to proceed with her life. Yep, I had neglected to save at any point during Day 1 (I usually save every time my characters get into bed), so Darling Minnie had to do her first day all over again :).
Given that she got to have a second first day, Minnie did things a bit differently. This time, she barged into a house occupied by a group of roommates. At first, they were startled, but Minnie soon won them over with her charm (and a freshly made Garden Salad). Things went smoothly after that. Minnie made a good impression and the roommates pretty much accepted her as a 4th housemate. Sadly, it's a 3-bedroom house. Minnie was slick, though. She headed to bed early, staking claim on the biggest bedroom. The displaced housemate slept on the sofa. Oh well! Score 1 for Minnie!
And yes, I saved :).

So far, so good. And it's fun!
Quick question: How do we calculate Friends for Challenge purposes? I understand our Sims have to get other Sims to Friend level, but must the Friend (or better) level be maintained until the end of the Challenge? Can we let the Friendships peter out once we move from their house (maintaining SimFriendships is even more exhausting than making SimFriends)? Or do we simply add up how many Friends (or better) our Sim has when s/he meets the Mansion Baron Aspiration?
