Not sure if this is an annoyance or just plain broken, but...
MistyBlue:
When I finished college in RL I was completely broke, I had to debate moving back in with my parents. Fortunately, I found a moderately paying job in a field that had absolutely nothing to do with my degree. ::)
My sims usually go to college alone because I don't have large families and the children usually have a huge gap between them. I only send others if there is some kind of arranged marriage going on. I hate playing uni so I don't do the SS or greek houses. And above all, they barely ever get perfect marks because all of my sims are just a tad bit LAZY! That's why they come back to the neighborhood with nothing.
ZephyrZodiac:
I think the main difference here is that in RL the cost of day-to-day LIVING is much higher than in The Sims! And Sims can come back from college with very little cash, but an inventory filled with more than enough to start out with! If you had taken the furniture from a rented house, other than what you had bought yourself, you'd have been liable to be arrested - sims can get away with taking everything including the kitchen sink!
BlueSoup:
Oh I don't know about cost of living being less - it's just that they usually make so much more than most people (OK, me).
I totally forgot about my moreexpensiveNPC's hack and I recently sent my new Legacy founder off to work after giving birth, hired a nanny (who had custom black hair weirdly enough and immediately started relaxing naked on the Love Bed! :'(), and when she got back she had made §588 or so that day, and her nanny cost her §850 almost!
ZephyrZodiac:
My sims wouldn't hire a nanny if you paid THEM!
BlueSoup:
Well, I decided to go a different way with this Legacy, and she's a single mom. If she wants to work (and she has to, considering she's still living on the lawn), then she has no choice. Although obviously I am going to have her take her vacation days now. :P
