Virtual Business
What have you learned about the game that you think help prepare you for real life?
This has taught me that managing your money is important. If you spend it all will nilly then your not going to do very well. Prioritize whats truly important such as job, housing,food, and bills.
I learned that you will have bills and when they are passed due, there's a chance you can lose your home, starve, etc. Make sure you have enough food to eat and enough gas to get where you need.
I have learned that it's much harder to keep my health up than I expected it to be, my character is sick due to lack of exercise and making time for everything is really stressful. Maintaining more than one job and keeping up with my own health is insane.
I learned through this game many things that I'll need to know in the near future such as how to fill out taxes and how to take out a student loan. I took pictures of my tax reports and used those to fill out my tax forms from the past year. Also, when I enrolled in school, I had the money to pay for the entire course, but I chose to take out a small loan to ensure that I still have enough money in my bank account if anything happened.
Make sure to make plenty of time for exercise and time to relax. Increasing the speed also increases the chances of your food running out faster and your character dying.
Make sure to check the requirements of your job to help assist you in following your career choice, also look at all the schools around you to make sure your not over paying for your schooling.
In this game I have found that it is very difficult to manage and juggle all the responsibilities that are asked of me. You have to make sure you have food, and bus tokens for me because I take the bus. You want to make sure you complete your school on the weekends, and work through the weekdays in order to become financially stable. Your reports are going to help you a lot when you want to know how much you make you look at your pay stubs. If you are going to hit the faster button you're going to want to be in the window with the view of your house. As it goes, slow down when you see you have a new message, and hold your mouse over your refrigerator and your bus tokens to make sure you have enough. If you don't, slow down and get more.
I have learned that you shouldn't speed things up too fast or you might die from starvation or you go to fast and forget to pay your bills.And if you forget to pay your bills you will eventually get evicted.
If you work three jobs, you make far more money and don't need to worry about bills. However, you need to buy more expensive furniture to help make up for your lack of exercise and relaxation.
I've learned that staying on one thing can almost guarantee success. Like, I'm making bank in food management, even though it's not the most exciting life plan. My little business guy seems pretty content living that life, he's doing well. I've also learned that living too fast will make you die super fast so you gotta live slow. And food is not optional. I've also actually learned a bit about doing taxes and feel less scared of the idea of doing them in the future.
It shows how hard it is for everyone to make a plan for your weekdays and weekend and take care of everything you need to
ReplyDeleteDo not push the fast button to many time as you can't get enough food for your sim.
ReplyDeleteleasing a car is a good idea after the first 6 to 8 months in the game
