Are your sims rich or poor?
I was just curious how many of you play with poor vs. rich sims and why. I tend to love my sims most when they're struggling, but then I do want them to advance in their lives etc. It's just that once...

I like to use the word "retire" when I mark a household as unplayed, but essentially that is what I do. I have 10 saves in which I actively play between 5-8 households. I start out with a single Sim on an empty lot (maybe a trash can, if I feel generous) and then I set the funds to 0. By the time they are established in their careers, have a nice house, 6 figures in the household funds and usually a family I retire the household. I love to see my Sims around town and see their kids grow up. Sometimes I will go back in and play them again or move out a child when they reached YA stage and then play them. I get bored with rich Sims but they do make great townies for my new Sims to meet. I don't start new saves anymore. When I make a new Sim they go into one of my existing saves. One of my saves goes way back to when I started playing TS4 in December 2015.
Glad I'm not the only one who does this. And yes, retire probably sounds better than ditch :joy: I also agree that it's super nice to live in a world full of families like that, and I also tend to drop most sims into existing saves. Actually, nearly all my sims eventually end up in my oldest save and I always enjoy returning to it for that very reason. There are sooo many families in it with great backstories, so many sims that started out poor, worked their way up, had families, sometimes I managed to get to the third generation or so. They marry each other, etc. It's definitely better than having a world full of townies and premades, that's for sure!
I really envy people who can go from poor to rich, then stick with the families through multiple generations. I've never been able to do this in any of the sims games actually :(
