Its hard to play without cheats to pay the heat bill
Is there anyway EA will make a patch to lower the heat bill? I dont like using many cheats. But its nearly impossible with the heat bill and even with my sims at the top of tge employment latter.

Another thing I do besides making sure inventories aren't glutted both house and personal is to make use of fireplaces. Most of my sims (even the rich ones) use the fireplaces more and wear warm clothes in the house if they get chilled. You can set up a number of cold weather outfits for them to change into in the house.... There is also the traits that your sims can buy, two types one that makes them a little more hardy and one that makes them immune to cold effects. I've gotten these on certain types of sims only but it's available if it really bugs you.
