Hold Ctrl,Shift and C. A little grey box should appear on the top-left corner of the screen. Enter the following word: rosebud. You will have 1000 Simoleons added to you're total. After that enter the following code:!;!;!;!;!; and repeat until it won't let you continue entering. When you can't continue change the last digit to anything other than the two punctuation marks that make up the code and hold enter until you reach 9999999 Simoleons.
NOTE 1: You can continue to hold enter even after you reach 9999999 Simoleons. When you do this it won't say anything different than 9999999 but you will still have the actual total of Simoleons which will be larger than 9999999 if you do this.
NOTE 2: To enter !;!;!;!;!; faster do this: Press !; ten times, then press Ctrl A to highlight the text, Ctrl C to copy the text, then hold Ctrl V to repeatedly paste the text until it won't let you continue, then replace the last punctuation mark with anything other than the 2 marks and hold enter until you reach 9999999.

Fulfill Your Sims Needs
If your sim is feeling perhaps a little depressed here's a cool way to 'reset' them:
Use the MOVE_OBJECTS ON cheat as described above, pick up your depressed Sim, hit the [DEL] key and flick back to live mode. Your Sim will now spawn in the centre of your screen with all of his needs stats reset to how he started the game! Be sure to save the game before you do this because any skill points gained since the last save will be wiped when you use this cheat!

Extra Bonuses
If you have built up the skills and relationships of a Sim to a high level then they will progress up the career ladder very quickly. You can use this to your advantage. Once you've peaked at your chosen career, just get fired and then re-hired. You have to start at the bottom of the ladder but because you still retain all of your skills you will storm up the career ladder (as long as you keep your Sim in a good mood). With every promotion comes a nice big fat bonus which should work out more than the money you lost by taking the lower pay.
________________________________________
Skip The Bills
Here's another little bug in the game that you can use to skip half of the household bills... Keep a bill unpaid until the next lot get delivered. When the mailbox flag is raised again, instruct one of your Sims to pay the first lot of bills. Off he trundles to the mailbox and whoosh, the new lot disappear!! If you keep doing this you'll only need to pay every other bill!

Get Free Houses!
You've got a brand new family with a paltry sum of $20,000 and you want to put them in that $100,000 mansion. Here's an easy way... First locate the file that corresponds to the house in question :
...\The Sims\UserData\Houses\housexx.iff
There is a house.iff file for each lot on the neighbourhood, numbered accordingly. For example, house01.iff, house02.iff etc. Make a copy of the file and put it somewhere safe. Now in your neighbourhood screen, bulldoze the house and buy the empty lot with your new family. Next copy that house file back, overwriting the one that is there. This will put your mansion on the lot without the family having to pay for it! You'll need to quit the game and restart to see the new house in place.

[LL]
With Living Large installed you need only flick neighbourhoods back and forth to see changes to the houses, you do NOT need to quit the game. Also note that with Living Large, if you are not in the default neighbourhood you need to locate the houses directory under the appropriately numbered UserData directory as there is one for each neighbourhood.

A Visit From Santa! [LL]
This is is not so much a cheat, but an 'easter egg'. First you need to get into the Christmas spirit - build yourself a Fireplace, buy the Christmas Tree that comes with Living Large, and serve up some yummy cookies on a nearby table. The cookies are one of Maxis' additional downloads so get those from http://www.thesims.com. Now, send your family off to sleep nice and early, around 8 or 9 pm and you never know, around midnight, you may just get a visit from Santa himself! Thanks to Fabienne Plantin for sending this tip in!

No more crashing when deleting a sim and bringing it back!
Ok. Alot of people have been having a problem with their game shutting down when you delete your sim and then bring it back.
Here's the reason. when you delete a sim and it has a command in the top left corner, it crashes the game when you try to bring it back.
MAKE SURE your sim is not doing anything or getting ready to do anything. heres how I did it:
First: after you have completed a skill point, lets say body skill.
Your sim wont do anymore weight lifting because he\she is not in the mood. Save it.
Then go back to live mode and make sure your sim is not doing anything or not about to do anything. in other words, get rid of the box in the top left.
Then go to buy mode, delete the sim, go back to live mode and bring the sim back. You wont have any more problems with it crashing the game.
________________________________________
Type in rosebud if you have the expansion, klapaucius if you don't have it. Type !;!;! as many times as you want after you've entered the cheat and you can copy it by highlighting it and pressing Ctrl+C, press return and then press Ctrl+Shift+C and now press Ctrl+V the !;!;! should come up automactically, it's timesaving.
________________________________________
To move ANYTHING
In the whole game including The Sims, puddles, plates, babys, just press ctrl+shift+c and then a grey box will appear then type in the box move_objects on then press enter -go on buy or build mode select the hand and select the thing you want do delete- and other bonuses about this you can delete The Sims then click on their faces and they will have full energy, hunger, fun,etc. But the problem is that The Sim will loose his/her job and any points -body,cooking,etc- they have gained.
