Hints
Hot Tub Tactics
The hot tub is by far the best value in the game because it contributes to three motives (four, if there are other Sims in the tub). It can be used to replace any fun/bath objects and it's also a great way to put visiting Sims in a good mood to increase the likelihood of a positive result from an interaction. Even though it is expensive, it is recommended to buy one as soon as possible after starting a game. (Just make sure that you have a phone to call the repairman when it breaks.)
Cunning Eight-fold Way!
Start an eight Sim family ... turn "free will" off temporarily ... buy a desk, computer and chair and get each Sim a job ... sell back the desk, computer and chair ... buy a fridge ... turn "free will" back on and play in high speed. Now all you have to do is make sure your Sims go to work each day. No matter how bad a mood they are in, they never lose their jobs -- with eight Sims working you'll earn between $800 and $2000 a day. With only a fridge, the bills will be VERY low and it won't take long to build up a sizeable bank account. When you have enough money, just kill off any extra unwanted Sims.
Slot Machine Tip
The downloadable slot machine is a money cheat. If your Fun motive is low, your odds of winning simoleans are very high.
Unnecessary Loss
Buy both the fire and burglar alarms to prevent unnecessary losses.
Catch a Burglar
The best place to put a burglar alarm is where visiting Sims enter and exit the Lot. This can also be an easy way to make some extra cash. Placing the burglar alarms indoors can be iffy because once the burglar starts running, the cop can't catch him. Placing the alarms on a wall segment on the corners of the lot will cause them to go off the second the burglar steps onto the lot. The burglar will get caught every time, and the policewoman will give you $1000 for the catch. (One more thing: Don't bother to call the police if you don't have an alarm; they won't make it before the burglar gets away.)
Slow Down Sim
Need to slow a Sim down? Holding the cursor over any unselected Sim slows them down -- he or she will move at a much slower rate until the cursor is no longer over them.
Gardening For Profit
When creating your yard, flowers and trees add almost equivalent value to room score, but trees don't require any maintenance. The gardener can water flowers for you, but you will save a lot of money in the long run if you use trees and not flowers.
Cash for Tombstones?
Need to get rid of an extra Sim or two? Build a small pool (3x3) with a ladder. Have the extra Sims get into the pool and then remove the ladder. As soon as the Sims run out of energy they will drown. As an added bonus, the resulting tombstones can be sold for $5 each.
