for max motives you shift-left click the mailbox. Your sim doesn't have to be pregnant to buy the fertility treatment reward. I only buy it for one parent but you can if you want. Hope I helped!

sims

If you want to get a ghost you just need two people who are close to each other. w When one of the sims is going to die then you get an opertunity to bring him live. Wait untill he dies and then go the the lap and then you got a ghost. if want an young ghost then just do 3 and 1 old. then when you got the obertunity o bring him back to life then kill the young man and go to the lap and then you got an younge ghost

Cheese Plants

in order to be able to plant cheese, patty, eggs and steak plants, you must master the gardening skill, accept any challenge that includes gardening finidh them and then you should get a message saying you can now plant eggs, cheese, etc..... then you can plant them. it's a great way to make some money!!

triplets or twins.

get your pregnant sim to eat an apple- and her child will be a boy. Eat two apples- they will be boy twins. Eat three- you get triplets; same thing to give birth to girls but eat watermelon instead.

Dear Guest Hey =)

You can get the fertility treatment available in the rewards mode thing and use it! One or both parents must have it! (One parent works although two is better!)

Easy Death with Cheat

In order to kill a sim, you need to ctrl-shift-c to the cheat box. Then type testingcheatsenabled and then testingcheatsenabled true . Then click on the sim (the one you want dead) and it will come up with an option saying 'trigger age transition'. click this, and then your sim will grow older. Then click on the same sim, and click 'trigger age transition'. Once our sim is an elder, then you can do it once more, and they will die. You can start this at any age. PS: Can people use proper sentences, or are they too time consuming?

BIG HOUSES WITHOUT BUYING!

when you start up go into options and then go into edit town...from there you can add a lot(house) or you can make your own little town on a big lot...i got the biggest house and put it on a big lot...then i saved, made my sim(s) did motherlode 7 times then did move.

Deathfish

to catch a deatfish(it kinda looks like the grim reaper)go to the pleasent rest graveyard between 12:00 and 4:00 and use the angelfish as bait. if you sell it you usually get quite a lot.
