 * Pickpocket
 * Entry-level two-bit thief—but you are your own boss. Dexterity and physical speed are obviously important. A certain amount of creativity is helpful, too, if you are going to distract those marks while you dip into their pockets.

 * Bank Robber
 * Instead of just driving the money away, now you're inside the SimCity First National Bank when it goes down - which cuts you in for a bigger slice. But you'd like to try your hand at some sneakier, more challenging crimes. Beter brains, brawn and buddies will move you up.

 * Higher scores, but more risk involved. Suddenly you're on the night shift. You cannot afford to let physical energy flag, or you'll botch a job. Mechanical skills are handy to keep your tools in good order and some creative problem solving will help you stay out of the slammer. Your friends are coming in very handy—more can only help.

 * Street Hawker
 * The important thing to remember when hawking other aspiring criminals' hot goods is to stay under the radar. A good street hawker keeps a low profile and only flashes the goods to customers away from the ever-watchful eyes of the fuzz. Keep the profits high and the merchandise intact, and try to get in good with one of the local bosses higher up in the food chain.

 * Now you're in with a local "family" and they've trusted you with the day to day activities of a small part of the business. You toil in the seedy underbelly of the SimCity racetrack, crunching numbers and helping to set odds for the day's races. It's not glamorous, but it pays the bills.
