Archaeology makes it too easy to make money
While I love the new skill, I am finding it WAY too easy! Almost every single artifact I find is genuine and worth dough. I already found two RARE plates worth over 10,000 each! I really wish they'd b...

You can go to that little park in Oasis Springs and fish up a violin for 15k. You don't even need to buy a fishing pole or bait. :p
That violin is a rare drop competing with about 20 other potential catches in the same pool. The 15k from archaeology/exploring is a 100% guarentee every single temple run.
Not that I expect it's especially difficult to get that violin (though I'm sure you'll go ahead and protest it anyway), but ok, you can start up a store (which requires little more than buying the smallest empty lot possible and the few things like the register to get it going) and then sell that violin for 300% markup the very same day. Then you can use that 45k to sell three more violins, then 9 more, ...
You can eventually write books so well (in less than a week) that you can get $5k-10k EVERY SINGLE DAY through royalties, at which point you don't have to do anything but maybe write one more book per week.
You can just go around collecting stuff from neighborhoods and sell it for more than $15k a week.
You can go get a random Sim to move in with you in a matter of minutes, just by talking to them. They bring in $20k with them. Then you can kick them out. They don't take that money when they go.
There are dozens of ways to make more than 15k a week. Careers in this game are probably the slowest ways to make money. Be a painter. Be a writer. Be a gardener. Be a retail shop runner. Be a crafter and sell stuff using that yard sale table thing.
I'm sorry but 'making money' in this game has never been difficult. The idea that JA somehow makes it even easier is ridiculous. Why? Because it takes longer there almost any time than just to use any method I've mentioned. And everyone seems to forget JA is a vacation world. It's meant to go there once in awhile, not to stay there, lol.
