How "realistic" is your game?
The topic of "realism" often comes up in various discussions, but it's not always clear what's meant by that term unless we happen to remember previous posts we've read by other individual simmers. So...

I said "semi-realistic", but it honestly depends on my game save. Each save file has it's own rules. I have one where occult sims are heavily featured in my storylines, and I use cheats to make them uber wealthy so I can give them all these grand manors. Even the regular sims in that world will benefit from my using the motherlode cheat so I can play out my storyline in the house I want to use.
In another save file, though, everything is very realistic. I'll design a house and give it to my sims for free, but then everything else after that has to be done without cheats, and I don't play with occults much in that save file. Aging is definitely a thing here, even though I'm playing on the longest life span.
Another sim file will also be occult-lite, but I might use cheats more so that I can tell whatever story I want to tell.
