Athletic Career Path

The life of an athlete is the American Dream. Everyone wants to be famous and just play sports as their job, and in the sims it’s definitely one of my favs. So nothing special to note really, there a few bonuses that you can get from the athletic skill that I will add, but it’s pretty cut and dry. Lift weights to increase muscles and do cardio workouts to get thin. That’s it.

  • For all careers MOOD is always factored into performance!

*Prepare for Game – you must have this option ticked at work to fill your prepare for game bar. When it is full (usually after one day) you will pretty much always win the game as long as your teammate level is high as. Do not forget to tick this option. I once forgot and barely won the game by a single point, where normally I’d win by 10+ points.

**Autograph sessions can be held at any time. They last exactly one hour. The goal is to bring business into a store, so sign as many autographs as you can so that people will not stand in line anymore waiting for you. Try to choose open areas so that sims don’t get caught in each others paths or have to work their way around objects. You make a little money for each autograph signed, and you get a lot of money for each sim that visits the venue you have chosen to sign autographs at. It’s a very lucrative action, but you have to wait a matter of days between signings so take advantage of them when you choose to attempt it.

***Advertising Deals aren’t as good as Autograph Sessions, at least in my experience. I tried to do a deal and just got “okay”. I’m not sure what that means, but whatever the case, the option is there for you.

Military Career Path

Stand up straight, tuck your shirt in, salute your shorts, and lace yer boots cuz you just joined the military! Okay now that the cheesiness is out of the way we can get back on track….left, left,…….. ah you know the drill…..Ahh, i can’t escape the puns. Okay for real here is the rundown of the military path. It’s pretty awesome actually and by the end you’ll be on easy street, able to work only one day a week. Yup, just one!, the rest of your days you can relax or take up a hobby if you’d like.

Note: At one day per week you’ll be much further behind in terms of hourly pay. The trick I used was to have a sim with the  workaholic trait raise their bar up most of the way by working at home. Then when you do get to work you can hopefully get a raise while at work, and possibly get two raises in a single day!

Also your single shift is 18-hours long, so rest up!
