A way that this could have gone at least a little faster would have been if you had made the shack a tiny home. Plants grow twice as quickly in micro homes
I did this, but instead I just gardened and painted. I also became a spellcaster because I wanted to take advantage of the potion of plentiful needs and burgliate. Then it was lottery day and I just tracked down the lottery winner and married them.
I've never tried the scenarios either - kinda seems like you could challenge yourself to do it anyway. LMAO the "LOOK AT ME GO BABE" made me laugh so hard
I’m guessing it’s giving conveniently located suggestions for different gameplay. You want to try something new, aren’t coming up with an idea, and don’t feel like looking anything up. Even seeing the concept of scenarios could prompt someone to change up their gameplay, whether they use the actual scenario, their own idea, or any of the ideas shared by fellow simmers. Like a springboard of sorts.🤷🏻♀️
@@ericalorraine7943 I'll suggest you lookup Christine Lynn Saitta, she's the real investments prodigy and has handled my trades for over 10 months now .I made over 0.9234btc in my first week investing with her
A CNBC news host spoke so highly of 💕Christine Lynn Saitta and her loss prevention strategies been trying to get to her ever since didn’t know she was so accessible to the public
I think I did this one in 9 days. I went the opposite route and had my Sim become a vampire and he was a painter and crafter because selling paintings on Plopsy makes scads of money. We did eventually have a money tree but it was just one. here's the kicker, though...halfway through the challenge, my Sim had twin aliens.
You can make the trees or any plants perfect really easily if you are a good gardener and a spellcaster. Take cuttings of the plants until they die, then you can magic them back to life. If you do that, they come back ready to evolve. This way they can be perfect in a day.
James trying to make a million simoleons.....destroys the best possible way by stomping out the dust bunny. Being one track minded isn't ALWAYS a good thing.
HAHAHA This challenge scenario method is H I L A R I O U S. In doing this one myself, I never would have even thought to go this route. But I'm glad James did it because he makes it funny. Someone needs a Patchy.
Willit Bake marries a Bigwallet (Chaz?) and opens the Bigwallet-Bake Cake Store! I know she's old but so are some of the Bigwallets and they can find love late in life before James kills them since they shouldn't still be living. I wanna see Silver to Gold R2R once, haha.
I did it. I ended up doing freelance painter career for both sims, sell paintings on the side and then moved house constantly buying a more expensive one each time, (furnished and selling furniture each move). It still took a while but found that to be quicker than anything else I could of done.
I did this scenario a week or so ago, and ended up winning the lottery. Never in my 10+ years of playing sims have I ever won the lottery until that scenario lol
Jeez, it took me 82 sim days… I did the acting career and had my sim get fame perks and stuff to build stuff up initially. I did eventually get a money tree and then worked on my gardening skill until I could graft the money tree onto another tree so that I could harvest the money fruit and plant more.
I did it in 21 days with no money trees. I also used a spellcaster to get the potion of plentiful needs and the good ol copy-pasto. I had him visit the jungle in between magic lessons to pick up golden frogs to copy pasto. Then sell them on the retail table outside the front door for 300% mark up. I didn't rush, it was too much fun
I love Semaj and his chaotic thinking. It is funny af. For people giving him advice, he knows! He is just trying something different LOL All love to Semaj!
When you splice a money fruit tree with another plant, you're able to harvest and plant multiple money trees for free. Not sure if this would be faster or slower, though. I'm for sure gonna have to try it though.
doing the interior design career can give you like 6k per day. if you send them on their own it takes 12 hours, but doing it yourself only takes a few hours of sim time since most of it is in build mode. good option for fast money.
Could you have used the first spell you got (Repairo) with dumpster diving? If you repaired and sold what you found, I think that might have been faster.
You can easily remove curses by going to your rewards store and clicking on Potion of Curse Cleansing. It only costs 500 points and removes all curses.
4:24 if you seem to be unable to sell something from your inventory by dragging it, simply pick the multi-select option and then click on the item c: works for me everytime
You can plant one money tree and put another plant that can be harvested next to it, and harvest all on one the other plant and you will harvest 6 or 7 money tree "fruit" then you can plant those. I did it in 9 sim days.
I did the painting club route and I tried a restaurant but I forgot they are glitchy af still not finished. A good tip is if you’re going the gardening route and have city living go to the festival’s and get the plants there.
I did the sceniario where my Sim lived in Sulani and fished and had a garden then I had him get a gold chicken to help. It was fun for awhile then I used SNB mod and took out a loan for the rest. I was more then halfway through.
Judith Ward has $100,000 BUT if your sim moves into her house and demolishes it, that’s worth $439,000. So, if your sim gets Santa to join the household and one marries Judith, moves in and sells her house…achievement unlocked. OR if you have 2 sims who divide and conquer.
In my challenge, I either married the following people or just had them move in with me, took most of their money, then moved them back out: Nancy Landgraab, Jacques Villareal, Victor Feng, Thorne Bailey (I also took his house), Bjorn, Mortimer Goth, Eric Lewis, and Father Winter (500k!!). I was done in 11 days.
Get paint skill up, throw yard sale, mark paintings up at 300%. I get loads of cash quick that way ❤ or find a gold frog or plate from Jungle Adventure and CopyPasto it and do the same thing, yard sale at 300%.
Just an FYI, James, there's a "Potion of Curse Cleansing" in the Rewards Store that removes ALL curses. Just so it's a little easier next time, if you use this method again. 👌🏻😉 However, I'm not sure if it's used for Jungle Adventure curses, or Realm of Magic curses. I've never used it meself. 🤷🏻♀️😉
If you would have searched the bookcases for magic tomes during the cool down from learning from the magic teachers you would have gotten copyposto faster. You could have also added the great soil lot trait to your home. I think your house counted as a tiny home already im not to sure. and investing in some bees would have made the plants give even more money much faster. Over all good job!
loool that's such a crazy but fun way to do this XD I stopped when I was around 230k in because it took me too long (painter in the painter career was my choice) and I wanted my sim to get a family (which is possible btw while doing the challenge) and soon after that I had the other sim work as well. XD I might try a different way next time and actually try to get to 1Million simoleons XD
I didn't even think to use spellcaster but I had been thinking to grow a money tree... I've been having my Sim make friends with other sims, move in with them and then take all their "friends" money LOL and she is an actress so you would think that negative press would be bad for her but I was thinking of it as these people wanted to be friends with her just because she was famous XDD anyways- very entertaining! loved this! :D
when i want a big garden, i create a club where the activities are just gardening. make the meeting spot my house and people just come garden for free.
few things i have to say as someone who regularly plays rags to riches in my game. 1. micro home is ur best option for literally anything 2. having a tent gets ur fun and sleep up at the same time and u can bring it with u everywhere, including the magic realm 3. having the game on 7 day seasons so you can keep reaping the 500 reward points of the holidays is the easiest way to get the money tree (besides flipping back and forth between aspirations)
Plus instead of doing the "Under what conditions?" option when he got the phone call for it, if he had done the option that prompted the getting married in seven days, married a rich townie, he could've gotten not only the rich townie's money but also the bonus money of getting married within the seven days.
On of the fastest way to earn money is by selling your Masterpiece paintings on Plopsy. The highest I got is on a Surrealism painting valued at about 42K simoleons for that painting alone. EDIT: I have the Marketable trait.
Fastest way possible is probably taking pictures of sims, becoming friends then asking to move together. Take all their money, bulldoze their house, repeat.
Not if he still has Carl’s mod installed lol. I believe there are negative consequences for trying to use the picture-taking to bff method. It would be funny to see it happen though!
Some ideas 1) don't spend a lot money 2) grow roses and/ or lilies 3) get a dumpster and pile of presents on your lot and sell what you get from them 4) same with the decorations box, sell things from the 'rummage for' action. 5) farm aspiration points to get buy money trees 6)join business career so you can invest on stock market
I did that scenario also as spellcaster with the money tree. In the cooldown phases I worked on my golden chicken. By the time the trees were big, they were also the best level.
I gave the vid a dislike for the interruption. I find it very jarring to have the flow interrupted and then have to sit through 2 giant heads on the screen while someone is given a recap they could have simply been given offscreen. To each their own.
I’m commenting so that Clare has a positive comment in addition to the bitter one. I like banter between people in videos sometimes. I’m also quite ok with Bowser interruptions.
@@mandydini Oh I see, apologies. I commented because the original commenter said, 'we'. They do not speak for me. I don't appreciate someone speaking for me. So I corrected it.
They haven't said anything about a wedding planner career nor showed it in the live streams, there won't unfortunately be one. Hope the Bigwallet legacy continues regardless.
I recently completed this challenge but I don't have the pack with the magic stuff. I made a lot of paintings, did a lot of gardening, invested in as many money trees as possible and tried to be at the top of my career with all the family members. It took me 124 sims-days :)
I’m sorry but I just found James channel like a week ago and have been binge watching his videos and this video was the first I seen him with his love…. And for the while I’ve been on his Ty channel I thought he was giving some fruity vibes… 🫣I hate myself for thinking that when he isn’t! 🫠 still all love to him and his love!
EDIT: he did not lmao the fact that his first two spells were repairio and inferniate, he could just light stuff on fire and repair it to keep the insurance money. i'm only 5 mins in so lets see if he eventually does it lmao
The thing that is actually super helpful with spellcasters is the plentiful needa potion, cause then you can focus on the challenge and never really worry about your needs
Taking the magic route is hard because you need to level your spell caster to have a chance to get the copypasto spell. Money trees also take time to grow. I think the fastest way is just to level flower arranging and sell them on the vendor table. Painting is OK, but I usually don't see much over $1-2k. Flower arranging gives you consistent $4k-$6k base (level 10) and that sells for $16k-$24k on the selling table at 300% markup. A tiny home and quick learner aspiration will get things going. Also, buy a lot for close to $20k in the beginning and you can sell the stuff in the house to get your flower arranging table. The quickest way by far though, is to make a holiday where Father Winter appears and take his $500k simoleons. :P While waiting for him, go around the rich houses and get people to move in with you taking their stuff and selling it.
I did a similar run about a year or so ago. After I got the money tree, when the tree was bearing fruit, instead of selling the fruit, I put the trees in my inventory which allowed me to collect the fruit which I then in turn planted. I was on the big lot in Newcrest and I wanted to see how much I could make in one day. I got the tree farm up to a 20 x 20 square and then did my first big sale and netted over three million simoleons in one day. It took me 26 days to get to that point. I may try it again now and see how quick I can get to one million.
I played this in a kinda chill way, I had just one money tree and ended with a family and a big house, it took me 61 days in game and around two weeks I think, now I'm building them a kind of mansion 💖
I tried a similar way with gardening and made a gardening club to make them come over every morning to look after the plants. Didn't do it this quickly though.
If you place patchy down on your lot wait for him to come to life then go into build mode delete the tree he stays on your lot permanently and you don't have to fulfill his needs he will help you with gardening the entire time
