The Battle of the Aspirations
Ness:
sounds like a plan there!
crazy - most recolours end up being priced ridiculously low - and here we are asking for the exact opposite!
a nice little super-expensive vase, chess board and painting and fortune sims could be kept happily quite easily!

I think Romance sims are fun if you want a whole 'hood full of cheaters; otherwise they are just a pain. I like popularity sims, but I think that is just a function of how I play because I like all my playable sims to be friends with one another. Family sims often seem easy but become tedious and demanding - the majority of their LTWs are not acheivable until they become elders (this is one reason to like the popularity sims, since the LTW of having 20 best friends can easily happen to a teen).
I tend to go through stages of preferring one aspiration over another; it really depends on how I am playing the game.
as a nother poster pointed out to me when we were discussing My Popularity sim who until I hooked her up with a Romance sim that was single would inform me all the "married sims" were "hot" when I would have her Scope a Room. she would totally ignore the single male sims. She now has super strong attraction to her hubby and the two of them nearly swoon when they look at each other. any way the poster was saying Family sims will cheat at the Drop of a but get more self righteouss about it..Romance sims on the other hand cheat but are more honest and out front about it. I current Have 6 Romance sims in my custom neighborhood and I have family sims and I have popularity sims as well as ffotune,knowledge and pleasure. Ihave found that the easiest way to deal with my Romance Sims was to set up a Bordello using the DMA setup. I also noticed that my married Romance sims are less inclined to cheat if they have children.on the other hand I have a family sim who is pregnant with her 9th child that was at a wedding of one of my Romance sims and she was making attempts to flirt with the grooms brother who was also a Romance sim and the Brother rebuffed her several times. the grooms brother is marrieid and has 5 children from a previous marriage and his wife is expecting their 1st child together.I think Romance sims are terribly misunderstood. here is a picture of the Romance Sims first dance with his Bride my popularity sim .singing for the couple is his Father and Brother unfortunately I couldnt get the Brother in the shot but the father of the groom is clearly shown and is a Romance sim himself

my favorite is the knowledge sim, they are easiest to get to lifetime platinum because most of them just want to max out all skills or be a mad scientist. the only thing I hate about them now is they are the only ones who want to be vampires.
If you turn other aspirations into vamps or they get bitten downtown, they have the "buy vampocillin d" want. they don't want to be vamps. ;D

I have to agree That Knowledge can be very easy to get perma plat.my most difficult to reach perma plat is Family. Fotune is difficult if its the 100,000 simoleon LTW. Romance ,Knowledge,Popularity and Pleasure have been the easiest for me to get to perma plat status and I usually reach permaplat with those aspirations by the time they are in Uni.or shortly after if the LTW's are career related for teen Romance sims I have the bordello pack which allows teens to woohoo safely and reach the woohoo with x amount of sims and reach perma plat before sending them to Uni. that way I dont deal with the furious sim issue with them. and once Romance is perma plat they are a breeze to deal with as you can get them married,engaged or whatever with out aspiration failure occuring

i love knowledge and family sims. knowledge sims are so easy to play but they basically have the same lifetime want (ie mad scientist or criminal mastermind or max all 7 skills) which is pretty boring at times, but they learn skills faster. i always have my teens with knowlegde aspiration then change them in university.
family sims are sweet! they are just like me, and i love to laugh everytime they get a 'have a baby want', which is like always! they never get tired..
popular sims are easy once you have the phonehack. i think i like them too :)
romance sims are a rare lot in my game. only Nathan are allowed to touch other woman :D that's him in the picture. others are all in aspiration failure :D seen the therapist drop in several times.
fortune sims are troublesome to maintain in my opinion! they always want to buy this, and buy that..and then this, and then that again. shrubs, trees, flowerbeds, tables, counters, sofas... even when they're dead broke.
pleasure and grilled cheese i don't know yet as i haven't got NL yet too
