LIFE
What better way to start out on your sim’s life journey than with The Game of Life? But, unfortunately for you, life is hard, and this first generation will be no exception.

• Your sim may only enter one of the five careers that are on the original Life board: doctor, journalist, lawyer, teacher (AMB) or scientist.
  ~ They may never quit or change professions (but they may retire), and if they are fired, you must get them back into that profession as soon as possible.
  ~ Spouses and children/teens may not be employed, not even in a self-employed career. However, they may make money via skills or collecting – just cannot be in the career.
• You MUST send your sims on a ‘honeymoon’ (WA trip) as soon after their wedding as possible. If you have to sell the couch and microwave to afford the airfare, so be it.
  ~ If WA breaks your game, take your sims to another lot in the same world for a few days (may use Edit Town to place an appropriate community lot with sleeping/bathing/eating facilities). Subtract $1,000 to cover the cost of the ‘honeymoon’.
• In The Game of Life, players receive a large chunk of money after the birth of each of their children. Well, real life isn’t like that, and for the purposes of this challenge, neither is life in the sims. Kids COST money. A LOT of money. So, after the birth of every child, you must SUBTRACT $1,000 dollars from your sims’ household. Now just hope you don’t go bankrupt.
• OPTIONAL: Community Chest card!
  All relics collected on the honeymoon must be analysed for the gain/loss in value BEFORE being sold (if you choose to sell them).
