There are a lot of items that you can buy in The Sims 4. These let you customize your Sim and your home to make it unique and perfect for you.

What this means is that you need a lot of money in order to actually buy the things that you need to build and deck your character with. A lot of players turn to using cheat codes to give them a quick buck and go on with their playthroughs.

But others want to have that feeling of accomplishment of working hard for the money that they spend on various items. This guide focuses on helping you learn about the different methods of making money in The Sims 4 without using cheats.

Playing Music as an Artist

One simple way of getting some hard-earned money in The Sims 4 is by using your character's artistic talents when it comes to music. You can use any musical instrument to attract a crowd of other characters and have them give you tips.

This method can be done in a public place where a lot of Sims hang around and is a relatively easy but low-earning money-making method, according to Screen Rant.

Setting Up a Shop at the Flea Market

The next way of making some profits is by setting up your own shop at a flea market and selling stuff to other Sims. This is a method that can be used starting with the release of the City Living expansion.

The main stuff that you will be selling in your shop are things that you do not generally need anymore. The main issue with this method is that the flea market does not happen every day, which means you have to wait every now and then.

Work in Archaeology

If you want to follow a traditional career path and earn a living that way, then becoming an Archaeologist is a good option. One thing to note here is that the temples of Selvadorada have a lot of traps that you need to avoid.

The good thing about this money-making method is that you can find some very valuable treasures if you're lucky. But it takes time and skill to dig, clean, and identify the various items that you find in your adventures, The Gamer said.

Fishing and Selling What You Get

Fishing is another profitable way to get money in The Sims 4 and it is a relatively simple method to do. When you just start out, you need to carefully choose which fishing spots to use and where easier fishes live.

But when you become more experienced, including the back of Oasis Springs' park. The good thing about this is that the harder a fishing spot is, the more valuable the sea creatures that lurk within are.

Painting at Museums

One of the best money-making methods in The Sims 4 without resorting to cheats is letting your Sim paint at museums. This is a simple and easy way of earning cash in the game. The main issue here is that you need to buy their own canvas to paint on.

You don't need to focus on a particular subject for the paintings that you want to profit from. But over time, your character will get better and will start making pieces that sell for ridiculously high prices, according to Game Rant.
