[30] Interests
Everyone Sims has an interest in something, sure some Sims might like Politics
but might hate Money, its random. Sims who have the same interests will get
along like a breeze if they Share Interests with each other. This makes
their conversations last longer than normal. Also, you can get more relation-
ship points out of this.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[30.01] Your Sims Interests
Your Sims have 18 Interests available to them. They might like one more than
the other, it's not my problem. The interests are:
Animals
Crime
Culture
Entertainment
Environment
Fashion
Food
Health
Money
Paranormal
Politics
Sci-Fi
School
Sports
Toys
Travel
Weather
Work
These interests can change your Sims Aspirations. For example, a Sim with a
10 bar food interest will have a higher chance of getting a Food Aspiration
than a Sim who has no interest in it.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

brought from the community lots. They all cost §15 each and can be sold in
buy mode for §10 each.
