I was originally supposed to play generation 3, but Roxy kindly stepped in

because of my busy schedule at the time. So I'm happy to be playing thishouse that I had built for that turn before passing it to Roxy!

I hae placed the Sitcoms in a custom neighborhood with their only neighborsbeing my current turn with the ncores, another "oint legacy that I work on

and then a ton of business lots.

#hy a ton of business lots, you may be asking$


4/90

%& simultaneous loers, raise %& pets wants like those are time

consuming and more difficult with a

"oint legacy as you only get until theheir's youngest child is a teen to

achiee that want.So, (liia being a grilled cheese sim

wants to eat %&& grilled cheesesandwiches. )incoln, a popularity

sim on the other hand, what did he

want$

#ell, the choice of heir was graciouslyleft to me and I made a decision most

would consider cra*y, but we'll getback to that. I don't think I'm alone

when I say that most people who play"oint legacies load up the lot when they

receie it from the preious player andcringe to see if they'e gotten one ofthe dreaded )+#s in the game. )et'sface it, no one is particularly thrilled

with the )+# of & dream or first dates-


5/90

robably something like %&simultaneous best friends or

a career )+#$/ope, this neat freak

popularity sim had a surprise

in store for me. Seriously, hisfirst autonomous action in

game was to clean analready clean bathtub...

0r. opularity here his )+#$ (wn +op )eel 1usinesses.

(ur shy, neat freak, playful )incoln wantsto be a tycoon$

/aturally you'd think I'd go for (liia atthis point. 2fter all she's eligible

Sitcom eyes, easy if not redundant)+#, she's pretty... +his is where I'll

refer you back to the last slide, I made

a decision most would consider cra*y4


6/90

So yes, I'm a bit nuts but I will say I hadsome fun building the community lots

needed for the businesses.I opened a new custom neighborhood and

modified two 0axis made lots into arestaurant and a bakery, made a bowlingalley I named 0emory )anes, and then

modified ete's ets.+his little opularity sim was going to be a

business tycoon and he was going to loeit, darn it!

(n a side note, this neighborhood template iserfect for beach lots.

5es, my dear readers I chose )incoln top6& businesses )+# 7 all and the fun part

is when you reali*e I hae to do this wellbefore the family is ready to be gien backto 8aleigh... so most of this will hae to bedone during college. #hy did I do this to

myself you may ask$ #ell, you see Sims 9

was coming out soon, and I reali*ed (:1has been a neglected expansion of mine the last sims in my game to go businesscra*y were 0adison and 2melie 8inckley

back in %&&;.


7/90

+his is when I hopefully looked in the elder's skill panel to see what badges they had.

+hese two loebirds are (tto and /oelle Sitcom. (tto is the generation 3 heir whomarried /oelle the 0usic 7


8/90

+his is =ason Sitcom, spouse of the %ndgeneration's heiress eyton. 8e is afortune sim who has had some trouble staying at the top of the business

career which was his )+#. 8e kept choosing bad chance cards.8e has a bron*e badge in fishing and a bron*e badge in robotics neither

are ery useful for )incoln's big dreams.1ut =ason loes working alongside his son (tto.


9/90

+he eldest Sitcom of generation 9 is #alter. #alter wasn't eligible for heir becausehe has =ason's eye color instead of the Sitcom color.

=ason still thinks that #alter has the best eye color there is, "ust like =ason.45es, yes we know =ason.

2nywho, #alter is a family sim who has had some strange choices in clothing ashe's aged as in he is >uite often in leotards. I had hoped his )+# would be to

top


10/90

2nd here is the loely (liia again. She is grilled cheese aspiration, soobiously that means her )+# is to eat %&& grilled cheese sandwiches.)ayla, I still can't beliee you picked )incoln oer me! 5ou're going to be

sorry, mark my words.4r... okay then.


11/90

2nd here's our popularity sim and heir )incoln, striking >uite the pose.)ayla, "ust ignore (liia you'e obiously made the right decision! I won't

let you down.4

#ell that makes me feel better ?@ 2nywho )incoln is a ery neat sim with thepersonality of 6& /eat, 3 (utgoing, A 2ctie, B layful and /ice. 2n

interesting thing to note is that none of the Sitcoms Cat this point@ haemore than nice points. So that means poor (liia the grilled cheese

aspiration sim can't successfully talk about grilled cheese to any of herfamily members.


12/90

)ast but not least is Dene, theridiculously adorable family cat.

eryone adores her and shecontinues to be a cutie in mygame that I can't resist takingpictures of either. Roxy, you

were right!


13/90

+he ealuation of the inentories and skill badges means we hae a lot ofwork to do to get the first business going. +he best choice at this point is

something that doesn't hae to do with crafting since no one is particularlyskilled in craftables except for (tto and his sewing.

=ason thinks that you should put up another picture of =ason, (tto and

/oelle since you'e only shown pictures of us in our p"s so far4+hat's actually a good recommendation...

+his is =ason looking a little bit more put together. :or now, he is going to getto work on making toy robots for our eentual knick knack store.


14/90

#hile (tto here will get towork on sewing teddy

bears.


15/90

2nd /oelle here, looking much

more like /oelle, will get towork on baking cakes for apossible bakery.


16/90

1ut poor =ason is >uite old, so before he gets to work on building toy robots, Imake him pound a few glasses of elixer of life.

=ason feels so young now!4


17/90


18/90

=ason will show cra*y controller lady that he means business.4Retail business$

8ey! =ason wants to know where you came from$4Really$ I'm eery where, you're not used to this by now$

=ason doesn't like you.4


19/90

In all actuality, I'm "ust trying to

raise their aspirations toplatinum so I can send them to

college.

#hile their parents and grandfatherare busy trying to set things inmotion for )incoln's )+#, the

teens aren't really doing much ofanything.


20/90

#hile the other part of me wasexcited because, I'll be honest,

when I'm playing a "oint legacy, I

don't always gie the elders asmuch attention as they desere.It felt good to gie them part of

the spotlight again.lus, I got to see all of the cutecustom cakes I'e downloaded

oer the years.

art of me felt bad for working theelder Sitcoms so hard while the

teens "ust tended to theiraspiration scores.


21/90

2nother thing you need to know about the Sitcoms is the way the heir's spouse ischosen. If you look at the front of this picture, you will see a crystal ball. +his crystal

ball is a custom ob"ect that selects sims for your sim to date sort of like using thematchmaker, without the matchmaker or spending the money.So, out of the top , you hae to pick one that doesn't hae the same hair color as the

heir, or the same skintone Cwhen possible@ defaulting to opposite hair color if all ofthem hae the same skintone as the heir.

Since (liia's needs center around talking about grilled cheese, and her meanie family

members wouldn't listen, I hoped to find her a boyfriend who would with the crystalball.


22/90

+o my relief, Dordon Ehang here has enough nice points to listen to (liia.She will now be easy to keep in a platinum mood in preparation for moing

to college.

I couldn't shake the feeling of de"a u though.


23/90

#here had I seen Dordon before$


24/90


25/90

)incoln may not listen to (liia talk about grilled cheese, but he will eat it.

1ecause really, who doesn't loe a good grilled cheese$ I mean, a grilledcheese sim most certainly loes them more than most, but F dang it, now I

want a grilled cheese sandwich... and tomato soup.


26/90

=ason does not want a grilled cheese sandwich. =ason must keep trim and fit

for the ladies.4/o, =ason is supposed to be making toy robots.

#hy should =ason make them, if =ason doesn't get to keep them$41ecause =ason doesn't hae a choice, back to the porch for you!

=ason is notorious for stopping what he's doing to work out at the ballet barre.


27/90

2ll of that baking has gotten noticed by the culinary club. /oelle has beeninited to "oin the club. /oelle, doesn't it bring back good memories to be

greeted by a hobby leader$/o, no it doesn't4

It doesn't$5ou don't want to een hear about some of the things I'e seen when I'ewalked into random sims houses to inite them to the club. +here are some

things that cannot be unseen....4

5ikes, sorry I asked!


28/90

Since )incoln is the cause for all of this crafting, I figured it was about time

that I got him into it too. 8e hasn't been rolling wants that are easy to fill, soI decided to buy the pottery wheel and get him going. Sure enough, he

started getting wants about getting badges for it.I was a happy camper.


29/90

2nd so was )incoln.

I must say, if that was my iew, I would be throwing clay all day too. lus, itdoesn't hurt that I do actually en"oy making pottery... oh to hae a kiln one

day.


30/90

2ll #alter wanted was to flirt with a sim. So, he got lucky being a spare, and I

found him this cute girl with the crystal ball.


31/90

#ho he decided he should court by talking about big oil... okay, I guess

whateer works$


32/90

)incoln has been at it all day with the pottery wheel and has caught the

attention of the 2rts and Grafts club. 8e also has a bron*e badge in potterynow.


33/90


34/90

2nd I must say, I wouldn't

mind a day like (liia's onebit.

2nother day before the teenshead off to college meansanother day that I need to

keep their aspirations up.


35/90


36/90

(r not.... =ason$

=ason doesn't like you4

Seriously can I be (liia for a


37/90

=ason is ignoring you. Gome

(kay then...


38/90

/oelle is my awesome little worker bee. #ith her work alone I'e decided the

first business will be a bakery.2re we een sure )incoln is up to the task of owning businesses$ 8e is

after all still a teenager$4#here's your motherly encouragement$

It's taking a back seat to my motherly common sense42h, I see.

I think we should hae a sit down with )incoln and hear his plans.4


39/90

=ason wants to gie )incolnall of the toy robots he's

made so his grandson can

take oer the world.45ou mean the retail world,Drandpa$4

/ow son4 (tto added, #ho do you think is going to fund all of this and runall of this, you're still a teenager.4


41/90

#ell, I am the heir, so that means I'll inherit all of the family funds, so money

won't be a problem at all4+o get started yes son,4 (tto said, 1ut who will sustain those funds4


42/90

=ason thinks the boy has a point.4

(f course you do =ason, the boy "ust flatted you...=ason thinks with you and =ason as his example (tto, he'll be "ust fine.4I'm still not so sure about this, it's a lot of work, and I don't know if he's

serious4 /oelle wasn't coninced yet.


43/90

(kay, I will hae to trust your "udgment you two, but you will need to be with

him eery step of the way. )incoln dear, take this, these are all of the cakesI'e been baking. #e'e been talking it oer, and we think the first business

you should open is a bakery.4+hanks 0om! I won't let you down4

8e keeps saying that...


44/90

+he next morning =ason wakes up early and hops on the computer.

#hatcha doing =ason$

=ason is working on a surprise.4


45/90

(nce eeryone is awake, =ason takes them all down to a community lot.

+his is actually one of the premade houses that comes with the base gamethat I'e edited into a community lot. It's always been one of my faorites, Iam a sucker for bay windows, and when the base game came out, this was

the only way to make bay windows. 2nyway....


46/90

=ason purchased this business for you, )incoln.4

#ow Drandpa! 5ou didn't hae to.41ut )incoln, =ason wants you to know, that for now, this is =ason's business,

and you will be helping =ason and your


47/90

I'm >uite happy with how the inside of the bakery looks. 2nd it seems =ason

and )incoln agree.

+hey decide to call it the

=ason is really hit or miss


51/90

=ason is really hit or misswith his sales to begin

with.

2nd our young heir's needsand aspiration drop really

>uickly. )incoln isn't rollingany wants related to thebusiness. +he only one

that is, is =ason.


52/90


53/90

Hnfortunately, she doesn't hae alot of patience for poor )incolnwho is "ust learning how to use

the cash register.)ayla, you're really spending your

extra time with him on this cra*y

57/90

1usiness was finally starting to pick up, but poor )incoln's needs andaspiration were about to go into the red. 8e couldn't use the energi*er like

So they headed home for the day, not many leels gained, but =ason and)incoln earned a few badges.)incoln 1ron*e on register

bathroom so she promptly "oined him in there ending the phone call.


63/90

+he next day, my games ersion of =ason walked by the lot.


64/90

#ow, what a nice house! I can only imagine liing there.4

#ait, this =ason doesn't speak in third person$


65/90

:ess up =ason, do you "ust speak in third person to get more attention$

=ason doesn't know what )ayla is talking about...4


66/90

+he next day all of the gen 9 teenswere in a good enough

aspiration mood to moe tocollege. So that's what they did!


67/90

Drandpa, I'm counting on you to make a whole bunch of toy robots while I'm

away, so I can open up a store while I'm at college.4=ason isn't so sure why eeryone thinks =ason should be making toyrobots...4

Drandpa kids really like toy


68/90

Drandpa, kids really like toyrobots, that's why4

1ut =ason doesn't like toyrobots!4

=ason's displeasure withrobots wasn't going to keep


69/90

+hat's right, both (liia and)incoln are finally headed to

afternoon after #alter left for2cadJmie )e +our, (liia

/ow that their kids were off tocollege =ason decided to head


70/90

r, that doesn't look like working to

college, =ason decided to headback to the


71/90

2nd that's when =ason got hisgold badge in sales and he

earned the da**le saletechni>ue. 2nd then I

remembered how awesomethat was, it's a ery effectie

way to finally gain some muchneeded stars.

=ason is starting to get betterat sales, and patrons are

starting to isit more fre>uently

and buying more.


72/90

8is second attempt to da**le a guest was on =oe here. It was successful,

and it gained +he


73/90


74/90

=ason went oer to help the poor guy and gained the


75/90

2nd this is where I'll point something out it is sooooo much easier to run a

business with perma platinum sims who can use the energi*er. 5ou can "uststay open non-stop and really go after those goals.

+his is exciting because the


76/90

#hy muffins /oelle$ #hat didthey eer do to you$

So unfortunately, she knowsuite well...

If she's started a fire which she

does often enough. I know it'sbecause I'e tasked her with

making muffins.


77/90

=ason is progressing >uite well with his business skill badges. It seems likehe's really found something he's suited to do.

=ason wants to know what you mean by that4=ason, it was meant as a compliment.

=ason could tell that you were insinuating that maybe =ason wasn't suited todo something else4

=ason, I think you take things too personally.=ason doesn't like you4

2nother day, another muffin fire.


78/90

0aybe I spoke too soon about

=ason being good at thisbusiness thing, he doesn't seem

to adept with that register.

+hanks again


79/90

0eanwhile, (tto is much betterat the cash register.

+hings are going well they'renow at Rank out of 6&

with 0arty ncore. #hoapparently had "ust gone to work

when Roxy last played her...


80/90

2nd apparently the ncores are helping the Sitcoms celebrate this successthe way they celebrate eerything through dance. 2t least this time they're

a married couple instead of a couple of brothers dancing a bit too closetogether...


81/90

+his picture is here, because this eil witch has been a hugepain whilerunning this business! She keeps dropping by the lot, makes it rain and

then the cockroaches show up.

+his would be fine, except for the guests get unhappy about the cockroachesand then I hae to send a sim away from their post to go kill and sweep upthe cockroaches, then they decide that they need to cry about it afterwards

because it was awful, making them stop ringing up customers, or stoprestocking, and I won't notice sometimes, but beliee me the guests do...

sigh

1ut when the eil witch isn't here,things go >uite well.

=ason is in charge of restockingand selling but sometimes there


82/90

+hat's when I had /oelle take abreak from baking to start

learning how to restock. 2ndthe guests really liked chatting

with /oelle, and her basic saleoptions were a success. Shewas naturally better at selling

than =ason had been.

and selling, but sometimes thereare so many guests he can't

keep up with restocking.

+hey're getting >uite busy nowthat they're a Rank K 1usiness.

1ut she really sucks at makingmuffins.


83/90

2fter so many isits, /oelle wasstarting to feel guilty and

decided to tip poor


84/90

2nd yes, the eil witch has beenby again. 2nd =ason, do you

really think you should be

standing so close to poor 0artywhile she autonomously takes

care of what you were sentoutside to do$

gae us put the

87/90

+hey reopened and immediately earned enough stars to hae a rank Abusiness!

I was ecstatic!

If I mean the world to you, thenyou listen to me when I say

we're going home now, I'm beat!4
