Skill of the Week

[Nutella]

With the writing skill and selling books but you can't get royalties, I'm assuming that means you can't self publish or sell to a publisher?? 

Self publish - NO
Publisher - NO

If you do pick writing as skill of the week, you can only sell the books via dragging them to your personal inventory to sell or go into build/buy mode to sell the book.  Self publishing and publisher will still earn interest which is banned.

Remember:  You can only make money from career, selling the career rewards, and skill of the week.

If you collect collectibles, you cannot sell them.  Selling them will get you money, and that is against the rules.
If you have a nano-trash can, you can never use it.  Using that trash can will get you money, and that is against the rules.
If you move to Landgraab's lot and inherited the landgraab's money, that is against the rules too.

I was wondering if you can have your two Sims be spouses?

Yes, that's fine. I replied to your PM.

I post here because I did know if my PM went through. Thank you for responding.

UPDATE:

Added more restrictions:

• Harvests from gardening skill must be sold immediately.

IF you choose gardening as one of the skill to make money, you MUST sell your harvests immediately after harvesting.  NO leaving it in personal inventory and traveling around, this is to prevent a price inflation bug that has been around since launched.

Hahaha was that a bug? I thought it was a nice feature; mouldy pomegranate appreciating to £300 each?!

In reply to Nutella:  I thought as much with the selling of books. 

[Cat_Mom]

Price inflation bug? Ha! I too thought that was just a bonus feature.  Oh well

Due to an unfortunate incident which I am not at liberty to discuss right now, my challenge came to an end on Day 1 of week 4.
Final score: 470,431.

Clarification:

The word "pre" is added to make the rules clearer.
Sim B is allowed to pre-level Logic but cannot create any microscope prints or space prints unless Logic is the skill of the week.

Jimmy and Jemima Bond are finished - alive with no known mishaps  They accrued a total of 152,958. 

The feel they wasted a lot of valuable time, so very much look forward everyone beating them and finding out how to do better next year!

I'm assuming the upcoming Movie Hangout Stuff pack will be banned for this challenge; am I correct in this assumption?  Thanks!
