Simoleon

The Simoleon (§) is the unit of currency used in the SimCity and The Sims series. It is assumed to be the national currency of SimNation. It is revealed in The Sims 2 that Simoleons are red, orange and white.

Its value can vary between titles, and doesn't consistently reflect any real-life currency (such as the US dollar or British pound) as many of the more expensive items are marked down in price, while some of the cheapest may be marked up for example, in The Sims 2 an SUV costs approx. §4000, while a pizza costs §40. This is the result of lower time that a Sim has to earn money in the series compared to a real life person; usually items of daily duration are more expensive, while durable objects or house structures are cheaper.

In SimCity, a stretch of road is §10 per segment and a Police Department §500. One might think of a SimCity § as equivalent to 1000 The Sims Simoleons.

In Spore, the Sporebuck symbol in space stage (§) is the same symbol as a Simoleon (§).
