But wait, if playing off the grid, you're not supposed to get bills, am I right? @Simingal, I've got that facial expression right now. LOL

I’ve been playing a household with Simple Living and Off-the-Grid and they still get bills. They have three water collectors and a lot of solar panels and wind turbines to generate electricity, which helps reduce the bills, but they still have to pay lot taxes.

I must know what Pumpkin is doing now? How is sweet Pumpkin? I'm invested now, I must know!

Yeah the only bills they won't get are utilities. They still get taxed on household value; everything the household owns including but not limited to physical objects on lot, in personal inventory, in lot inventory, and simoleans.

Having said that, not having to pay utilities is a huge advantage.
