HARDER Harder Jobs, Please!
Kyna:
Failing a chance card can also trigger the want to stay home from work, whether it's demotion or loss of skills.
Sivany:
Well I've never been able to get a single sim to paint a masterpiece (even after trying time and time again with a sim with full creativity) so that's probably not helping. The chance cards happen all the time though, just yesterday a sim lost 3 logic points from one of them but still didn't get any quite job or stay home from work wants. I guess I'll just have to keep trying.
pixiejuice:
My pleasure sims also roll the stay home wants occasionally, not related to anything sometimes it seems.

NO guarantees, but I think the value of the painting or novel is based on the mood of the sim during the painting or writing. Or, more likely, when finishing the painting or novel. I haven't sold a masterpiece, but I finished a novel with a sim in platinum yesterday and fulfilled his want to sell a great novel. My strategy? Immediately before writing, he goes on a date with his wife. He rolls the usual date wants and occasionally fills hers, until he rolls the "have a dream date" want and fills the date meter. End the date, instant platinum. You don't even have to leave the house, except to reroll lame wants.
Warning: this is with Uni+NL only. I have yet to clean out space on my hard drive and install any other expansions.
Charamei:
I've noticed that with FT, it's almost impossible to get the Masterpiece want fulfilled now. I've had several Great Novels, but even Sims with high Arts & Crafts and maxed Creativity are having trouble selling good paintings: they're rarely over $100. Which makes it easier to have a starving artist, anyway, I suppose :P
As for dead-end careers, the only one I know of is this one.
