Newspapers

I support this. Since a lot of fun activities are risky for Elders, newspapers can be their all-in-one solution. They can gain fun from it, forecasts, can get focused/inspired/flirty depending on the article they choose, even gain skill like Logic (crossword puzzles, trivias, duh.) For balance purposes, they can make it so that non-Elders can get bored by it!

Newspapers! Yes, with coupons in them for poor and frugal sims.

Ohhhh I love that idea! How super cool would that be? I wish we had frugal sim traits and would bonus points of some kind for spending less money for quality items.

And as far as newspapers go, I have always been an advicate of them, Believe it or not, there are actually people (my parents for one) who do not own a smart phone, and that read a physical paper each morning. They also use a land line, every day.

Little things like this should still be included, people play the game in many different scenarios. Historical/Medieval games, poor/homeless sims (if you're poor and not working and barely getting by, you're spending money on the necessities, a cell phone is not a necessity when it comes down to spend money on food, clothing, and shelter.)

The cell phone and all electronic gadgets should be optional.
