I don't mind seeing you struggling with the money TBH, it makes the LP more interesting to watch. The Bakery idea is a good one, i can totally see that happening

The dog absolutely needs to be named Taylor, she is such a smart friendly little lady that I feel no other name will do 😭❤️ (my swiftie heart needs this to happen 🙏)

I would love to see Betty own the bakery! And I also think this pack ties in with eco lifestyle. I got a juice making machine on my farm to help ease the excess harvest. Loving this let’s play! <3

The spiders are likely plotting. :D

I feel like once they can afford both a water gatherer and a windmill or solar panel they can be on the grid? at that point, they're basically making their own energy and water, so we can fudge it a little and put them back on the grid!

I'd love to see Betty and James poking their noses into Lavina and Rahmi's business and try to set them up lol. (Also could you please add the fam to the gallery I love them)

ooh I built a bakery like that! where you can sell baked goods and also canned goods and stuff like that. It was the first thing I built with Cottage Living actually.

Definitely try the bakery! I'm an item hoarder in games too... especially cottage living because as soon as I sell something like the blue egg someone wants on in an errand... and I don't know all the needed ingredients for sometl things like animal treats either.

Ooh I think Zoomie would a cute name for the dog :))

Oh no, where did the spiders go 😢 not seeing them anymore really is the worst.

I definitely like the idea of a preserve shop/bakery and showing the grind is all apart of the story

If you sell your mushrooms and berries to the creature keeper you get more simoleons from him instead of the stalls 😊

I love the bakery idea!!! and for uni, you can apply for sponsorships (that's probably the wrong word?) so you might not have to pay for anything at all! I'd have her do only one class per semester - I feel that would feel best to her because she's such a responsible person that wants to have enough time to care for the animals, crops and the house 💚

You're not playing the game wrong, you are just focused on story, rather than financial progress!! It's refreshingly different, though I don't get any of the Taylor Swift references, because I am old and know nothing of your popular music!

I love the uni and the bakery idea! Maybe you could buy her the cupcake machine so she could bake pastries and sell them to the local bakery (it’s really good money with high level of cooking skill). That way she could earn extra money for uni and her future bakery

If you really wanna keep hoarding, you could always buy one of those storage chests, that way you can at least get it out of your inventory 😁

I'm waiting for see more part of let's play Sims 4

You can use the cardboard boxes from Eco Lifestyle (I think) to put the different collections in if you want. Same with the discover university chest and some other things that hold stuff. :)

I get bit by spiders all of the time, I read a article that said if you put a bowl of white vinegar under your bed it helps. So far so good. If they wouldn't bite me I would leave them alone. By the way white vinegar doesn't smell the greatest but for me it's worth it.

You've just answered your own question as to why you are struggling and you have to pay all your money out in bills you are billed for your inventory as well as your house as well as your electricity and water ues
