Sim suddenly has over 9 million simoleons

:hushed: wow that's crazy, never happened to me before, maybe they won the lottery?

Max winnings from the lottery is only a million, I'm pretty sure and even with the bonus from the Advanced technology skill that maxes it out at 3 million, so I don't think that's it.
Besides, she said she hasn't played the lottery.

This looks more like a cheat-gone-wrong, being how close that number is to the cap (assuming the cap is still 9,999,999...I haven't had a sim reach that in years). Maybe a mod gone wrong?

She hasn't played the lottery recently. I've never had a Sim win when they did play, but it isn't that much is it?

I tried googling the issue, but didn't find anything quite like this. I don't have mods. I didn't cheat to give her money. She has accepted gifts from rabbits recently, but it was just a book and some orange wool, nothing worth millions of dollars.

Wow what if there is a new bug where a rabbit gives a Sim like orange wool and also millions of simoleons hahaha I'm gonna visit the rabbits in my game, I can't finish that millionaire scenario for the life of me, takes forever, I need this cash bunny bug

I have a matriarch Sim in another world who has 1.5 million in cash and another half million in lot value. But I've been playing her for over two years.
I played that scenario myself a few weeks ago with another Sim and ended up cheating after I got about half way there the slow way. I got bored. Yeah, it's easy to make money in the game, but it gets boring if that's all you are doing.

Yeah, the cap is 9,999,999 I have an old household who have reached that. One of the reasons why is because you can unlock a reward trait which is pretty broken where your sims will get random money from "investments". And those investments could be loads of money like 150k and that also happens even when you are not playing them. Maybe that's what happened?

She doesn't have the trait that gives you investment returns (and neither does her boyfriend), I didn't use that money cheat or any money cheats, or any cheats at all. I only have two mods not in any way related to money (one to remove the censor mosaic and one to stop the sunrays on green lots). I don't have any CC.

My matriarch has the trait for investment returns and they can be ridiculously large, sometimes in the thousands. But I've never had one above 50,000 that I can remember.

This wasn't caused by any of the things I would initially think of if it were someone else asking, any of the things suggested. It's not even possible one of my kids did it. It is totally out of nowhere as far as I can tell. I noticed she had around 60 thousand and then when I looked again it was over 9 million.

Maybe it's what Elliandre suggested. Maybe my orange wool bunny gift was bugged and I got money?

Maybe something tried to pull about 100,000 from her account (which you said had about 60,000) and since the account can't have a negative value it glitched by "wrapping around" the max possible value (9,999,999) and down to 9,958,752.

Just one of my more wild guesses.

It's as good a guess as any. I don't know what it would have been (her bills are around 5,000 simoleons), but this game has weird glitches sometimes.
