I noticed this as well. But my sims do not just do acting. They also stream, and perform for tips. I also have them take pictures to sell, and paint. If your sims sells their painting at a high skill level they get fame and money. One of my sims has also been using the new music making table to make music and release songs. So I have extra money coming in from those things. But I do agree that the pay needs to be more for acting. And that we should be able to take multiple gigs. I have two actors. So the day that one actor is not working the other one works.
