Sims get filthy rich by visiting SS

Actually, they do take a portion home. I don't know the exact figures (I read a thread about it once, somewhere), but once the bank balance exceeds a certain amount, when one moves out they take a percentage with them. With my Uni SS members who've been experiencing this, when they graduate they end up in the family bin with between 1.4 and 1.6 million simoleons. (I reset it to 20000 with the familyFunds "cheat").
Millions? Sounds like someone else has been exploiting this bug more than I. :D
As far as I can tell, it's around 1% but of course, I could be wrong. One of my kids wound up with 21,050 in the bin and the house had about 100K.

Why not simply use the familyfunds cheat to deduct the extra money until this is fix. It would definitely work.
I think I will ... b/c this is ridiculous ::) Do you use that cheat in the house or in the neighborhood view ?
Thanks for all your input ... itīs nice to know that you are not alone with the problems :)

DESCRIPTION
-----------
This mod nips a very old bug in the ass - one that dates back to University (although few noticed it then). When a sim is moved from one neighborhood to another, the sim brings with them ridiculous sums of money - often running well into the millions. Some see this as a feature. Most would argue it seriously detracts from gameplay. This bug became very visible with the advent of Nightlife in which moving sims from Downtown to Residential lots was commonplace. This fix provides an alternative method of calculating the same "move-in funds" that the game would have produced had the move-in sim been living in the same neighborhood.
I'm not sure it is related to your problem, but it most likely is. Also don't know if the mod will fix your specific problem, or if it needs to be updated to include this "new?" problem. You could try it out and see if it works for you.

It will work both ways. The only problem is when you have multiple familys with the same last name, you never know to which family the cheat will take effect on! ::) But in this case, since they are in the University hood and you need to type the household name instead of the last name, you won't have this problem. Just be careful when you use it with your regular families that have many generations.
There are 3 ways to use this cheat:
1- familyfunds insertnameorhouseholdnamehere +2000 This will add 2000$ to the amount of money the family already have
2- familyfunds insertnameorhouseholdnamehere -2000 This will deduct 2000$ to the amount of money the family already have
3- familyfunds insertnameorhouseholdnamehere 2000 The new amount of money the family will have is 2000$
