Hi guys! It's been a LONG time since I posted anything on the forums but I recently came up with a challenge that I absolutely LOVE in my own gameplay. I am not sure if anyone else would enjoy it but I thought I would share just in case. I also want to state first that if someone else has done a similar challenge to this - I apologize!
This challenge is kind of a combination of 2 of my favourite challenges. My favourite things to do in gameplay is have babies, and earn a TON of money so I decided to combine the two in a lengthy challenge to hold my attention. The two challenges I based this off of are the 100 baby Challenge and the Rags to Riches that The Sim Supply does on his channel. For me, I seem to lose interest in both because they are very repetitive. I don't like playing with just one sim, but playing with a household of sims means I am not focusing on building them up financially. SO - this challenge came to be.
Basically, the goal is to earn the maximum amount of money (9,999,999) AND raise 100 children.
How this works:
1. Play with aging turned off - The point is not to do this as fast as you can, it's just to do it.
2. Create a single female sim - you could use a male if you have him enabled to get pregnant.
3. Choose one method to focus on making money -This time, I chose painting. But it can be anything you'd like.
4. Choose a lot you plan on staying on and cheat your money to 0 - testingcheats true and then money 0 will do this.
5. Start earning money and meeting people!
6. Once you have a house, it's time to make your first baby!
7. Raise that baby or babies until they become an adult - For babies, wait until the moodlet of "new baby" is gone. Toddler, max out their skills. Children, earn an A. Teens, earn and A and a character value (if you have parenthood).
8. Rinse and repeat.
The challenge will end once you have the maximum amount of money and you have successfully raised 100 children.
The only rules to this challenge:
1. No Cheating!
2. One baby daddy per pregnancy.
4. Follow the aging guidlines above
5. One pregnancy in the house at a time (single, twins or triplets).
6. Only your main sim can earn money - no teen jobs, or moving anyone else in.
no money trees or any other rewards that earn money
7. **optional** with my own challenge, I didn't have my first baby until I had an actual house with windows, doors and a separate room for them. It just seemed a little more realistic.
8. You are free to have pets in your household, but keep in mind, they do cost you more money and they may not add to your family funds.
I have removed the rule that said you can only earn money one way. Instead, try to focus on one method (I wouldn't recommend a job) but you are welcome to use other methods as well - as long as it is only your main sim earning the money.
That's it! I am still in the process of play testing this, so if anything else comes up I will make sure to edit and add it in here. If you decided to try it out, please keep me posted on how it's going! I would love to know!
I also want to stress that this challenge is designed to be a long one and to play slowly. It isn't about speeding through to get to the end. I highly suggest enjoy the little details and family aspects of the game. Especially with Seasons out now! It has a goal but its the journey that keeps it interesting
(deep right?)
Again, I combined two of my favourite challenges to suit my gameplay style. I am not taking credit for creating those and if someone else has done something similar, I apologize and would love to know!
Thanks for checking it out!
And, feel free to post your challenges down below if you give it a shot. I would love to see!

Hey guys, it has been a really long time since I posted anything on this discussion thread. I honestly put this challenge on hold because, truthfully, I wasn't enjoying the sims 4. However, with the release of seasons, I have found a new love for it. But, I did start fresh.
This time around I started with the lovely Riley Copeland. One of my all-time fave sims that I created.
She has been, and will continue to be making her fortune by painting.
Currently, she is still living pretty modestly, although she's come pretty far from having nothing.
As for children, she is raising her first, a daughter, named Emily. Her father is none other than the Don Lothario. She takes mostly after Riley but has her dad's eyes. She just aged up into a teen and is doing well with her young life so far.
More updates to come!

Not sure if I could stick to one method of making money. I honestly have never done that before.

Riley got a makeover ... I went back to Alpha CC...
Emily also got a makeover and aged into a Young Adult. She finished with the traits slob,lazy, good and got the responsible and top notch toddler. She, like her dad, is a serial romantic.
With Emily out and aged up, it was time to work on baby #2! This is David.
And baby #2 is confirmed
Hope you guys enjoy! Let me know if you try it out, and how it goes

Baby #2 is another little girl, we named her Victoria.
Riley couldn't be happier to have another little one to spoil and love.
Emily came to visit and I can't get over how stunning she is.
Introducing Big Sis to Lil Sis
It was New Years Eve and Riley wanted to lose weight for aspiration. Working off that baby fat makes sense other than the fact that she honestly doesn't have any ...
Victoria aged up and we have another GORGEOUS baby. Can't wait to see how she grows!!
Baby Count: 2
Money in FamilyFunds: 11k
So we don't seem to have a lot of money but Riley FINALLY has her forever home and it is gorgeous. It has lots of space and room to fit her family - even if we have multiples so now we can focus on raising the kids and gaining all the money possible.

Edit: Oh, nevermind, I see where you said that. I think I'll go with painting too, you just get money so easily and quickly. I might have my sim in the career at first, but after the house is kind of complete and my sim starts the baby part of the challenge, then I'll quit to be a stay-at-home mom.
Inspired +1 - Who isn't inspired after seeing the cutest thing ever come out of the banana they were eating?
