So, How Much Is My Teen B-Lister Worth?

A while back, I brought a query to the boards, hoping for a mod that would separate my 'working' teen's money from the household funds. It was suggested I try using the vault. So, I decided to do just that. I am amazed. Prior to using the vault, I had made a couple of tables (forms) to keep track of his income. My teen is a singer. With the help of the RTF mod, he can now perform concerts at a pittance of 10,000 a concert. He's also done well with sponsoring Brands, promoting Songs and digitized books, too, using his Simstagram. In order for him to garner those oh-so-important fame points, he often uses his drone to stream while he 'plays for tips'. So, the tip money adds up quickly. Even when he's just singing, Sims are inclined to throw 20 Simoleon tips at him. He's not too proud to accept any and all donations to his cause. ;)

The last two Sim Days have been quite profitable for my singer. I just had him add Thursdays' total to the vault, which came to 28, 276, which also includes royalties for both songs written and the ones he's recorded.

The grand total of this teen Sims' worth? Brace yourself. The lad who is closing in on 18 (his birthday is coming, and he'll morph into an Adult) and he's now worth: §293,827 Simoleons.

Not bad for a kid who quit school, eh? (He had straight A's cut him some slack.)

  • Wow! That's a lot of money, and he has not even started adulthood! :open_mouth:

    Btw, how do you keep track on the total tips he gets during a session? By notes on the side, or do you have some mod installed? And how do he get those concert jobs? I have only performed on the street yet, all "concerts" have been pretended, just for the fun seeing my singers on a stage :) Their income has only been the tips (and added fame, of course)

    I use the latest Road to Fame mod for the concerts. I jot down how much he earns, and for what. I sought a way to keep it separated from the household, since his father also works. One day, Erik will move out on his own, as all Sims ultimately do. There is a mod, but someone (on the thread where I asked about how to go about the money-thing), pointed out that we have a vault with GP. Why didn't I give that a try? Since that's something already available to me, via the game, I purchased a Vault and had to set it out on the side deck of their mansion. Only Erik has charge of it. He unlocks and deposits the money. It also has the total of the money in the vault. Now, I have no idea if he can take the vault with him when he leaves or not. But, at least I know how much money to cheat back to him when he does leave. ;)

    I was going to do what you're doing. I had the older version of RTF and uninstalled it once GF came out, thinking I wouldn't need it. I mentioned so on a thread, and someone was very quick to point out that Sacrificial had updated RTF to accommodate GF. Neat. I was thrilled. Unfortunately, the version I had broke with the Strangerville patch, but Sacrificial updated this one, too. He's even added a few things to it. My Sim can now go into a Rabbit hole, to sing at a concert away. :)
