Getting rich in the Sims, a highly talked about topic. It's simple yet hard. Sometimes your Sim is just unlucky and never hits the money jackpot. Here are some proven methods to make some simoleons.
The Gold Digger
Of course, we've all tried this once or twice, but the gold digger method is hard to perfect. Marry a rich sim, kill them, and take your riches as a prize for your effort. To perfectly pull off this money-making method, you must have your sim's spouse "mysteriously" die. You don't want to waste any of the money on legal fees.
The Gardener
Not everyone has a green thumb, but the virtual Sim's just seem to have it come naturally. As long as you correctly incubate and provide for each plant, you will have a prospering and money-making garden. Money plants are an awesome go-to, but no every installment in the franchise offers that option. The best option for the Sims 4 would be to reach level 8 of the gardening skill so you can super sell, and plant many money trees to maximize income.
Painting
Painting in the Sims has always been a reliable source of income as Sim's learn the skill quickly. Painting can sell for a big amount of money. In the Sim's 3 Ambitions, you can become self-employed as an artist, leading you to make even more money. it is an easy, at-home job to do that rakes in the money.
The Collector
Collectibles are everywhere in Sim's world. Rocks, artifacts, and gems can be found littered around every town. Collecting rare valuables can leave you with a lot of money, especially in the Sim's 3 World Adventures tomb collectibles.

never knew it was so rewarding !
in TS 3 pretty much same story: treasure hunting in tombs and additionally if you have supernatural heart cut moon stones are quite the moneymakers and uncut moon stone (the gem, not space rocks) is very commonly found
My Sims find far more relics by fishing than they do in the temple, although admittedly it's the same two every time, so you can't complete the collection by doing that.
My favorite way to make money in Sims 2 was to open a home business, make it so only family could go to the second floor, and then put hot tubs and other entertainment items on the bottom floor, then charge for entry. You can make lots of money that way, with absolutely no effort whatsoever. As long as you put the stairs behind a locked door, you're also not going to be bothered by your customers.
In Sims 3 I made money by writing and painting. Actually, that's still pretty reliable in Sims 4. If you can manage to get the Shrewd trait in Sims 4, then you can just rest on your laurels, and your money will continue to build up after that point without any effort.
The only kind of garden I can grow is a virtual one.
Dragons - must haz dragons!
yeah i know about the fishing part
