"You look low on funds!" [Wha...]

Funds.png?width=1920&height=1080&fit=bounds

Okay I know I am slow on things sim, but when did this start?
My sim moved into a little starter house fresh out of Uni, but she already has $5,000 simoleons in her account.

I thought, fine who turns down free money.
It gave her 50,000 simoleons. :o

    I guess it was patched in June.

    There's a thread discussing this when it happened:

    Thanks. If I had known it would be so much, I would have canceled it.

    It would be preferable if it made you in debt if you choose to take it, and have to pay it back

    that is brilliant @Sablesasha

    (instead of a pop-up, Guido could show up at your door in-game to deliver the offer of a loan)

    I've never seen that before. Is that a mod?

    I have never seen that but would like it to pop up in my game.

    Yeah, I've had that popup quite a few times. I don't mind it, because it does give you the option to cancel it, but it was very sneaky how they added this in and didn't mention it.

    It could do with some fine tuning though, because I've read that some players have had §5 but never got the popup, while others who had §1,000+ did get it.

    It's a good thing that they asked for more depth and challenge in their latest sims 411 forum feedback because this is exactly the opposite.

    I'm glad this has an option to not accept it, it seems so cheaty to me.

    I do like it but it should give you any amount under that $50,000 but hey it is optional I guess? Now I wonder what's next some sims that are Hitmen to come and collect. :D

    I often cheat down money on households now. If it's like §2,234,787 let's say, put it down to §34,787.

    Well she accepted the b o o t y and her coffers be full now, arg.
    I guess I will give her a bigger house, move in her boyfriend, and free up that starter for other sims.

    I've never seen that, but it's good to know it exists. I definitely wouldn't like that.

    Speaking of "Talk Like A Pirate" day, I noticed a sim going all out for this special day with a situational outfit.

    My first time seeing this, or at least noticing.

    @CK213 I like the cut of her jib! ;)

    The only way to end "Talk Like A Pirate" day is to try and rhyme a word with orange... :p
