Hi all--
I'm a new member, and seeing as I cannot create a new discussion, I figured this was probably the best place to post my query. I have the off-the-grid lot trait and have been living off the grid from the very beginning of my newest rags-to-riches game, many Sim weeks now (long enough to reach level 7 of the Conservationist career, Marine Biology branch). This evening as I sat down to play, a couple of Sim days into my playing session I received BILLS...on an OFF-THE-GRID LOT... I don't want to exit the game without saving because I don't want to lose my progress, but I also don't have the money to pay the bills--you know, those bills that I shouldn't have in the first place since I am off the grid... Should I consider this a 'bug' and report it to that corresponding thread? Thank you so much!
Sincerely,

I kind of assumed that "Off-the-Grid" only worked for my primary home lot. Once I acquired ANY additional property bills showed up (like death and taxes). So if you have a store, restaurant or a clinic I would recommend that you assume you will need to pay utilities for those lots. I only started getting bills once I bought the non-Off the Grid Lot. (NB: I can't see how you'd run a store without power).
