* '''[[Knowledge]]:''' Knowledge Sim's biggest wants are to discover all the mysteries of the world. They want to gain [[skill points]], and to eventually max out all skills. They may even want to experience things that other Sims fear, even things such as seeing [[ghost]]s, [[alien abduction]], or changing [[life state]]. They are also the only Sims that will gain a positive memory of becoming a [[zombie]], being abducted by aliens and seeing a ghost.<ref group="n">The memories for becoming a [[vampire]], [[PlantSim]], or good [[witch]] are positive regardless of aspiration. The memories for becoming a [[werewolf]] or evil witch/warlock are negative regardless of aspiration.</ref>

* '''[[Popularity]]:''' (sometimes referred to as '''Reputation''' or '''Fame''' in early development stages of the game)''':''' Popularity Sims crave popularity. Their ideal Saturday night is spent hanging out with friends, talking on the phone or, throwing [[Party|parties]].

* '''[[Romance]]:''' Romance Sims crave love with as many Sims as possible. They want to engage in casual, unlasting romance, and particularly [[WooHoo]]. They are perhaps unique in that their ''fears'' are actually ''wants'' to most other Sims (marriage, babies etc.) Romance Sims get negative memories from going steady, engagement and marriage with one exception; they will not get a negative memory after marrying a rich Sim. Despite fearing having babies, Romance Sims will still get positive memories of becoming parents. Romance Sims are seen as obstacles in a lot of Sims' lives especially if paired with a Family Sim, since their wants will clash more often that any other Sims.

With [[testingcheatsenabled]], players can find another aspiration, [[Power (aspiration)|Power]]. It was apparently an abandoned thought, because it has no icon and its wants and fears are a combination of Popularity and Fortune aspiration wants and fears. The "Power" aspiration usually involves making friends and gaining promotions. However, this aspiration is not possible to get in any other way, and as such, is defunct. (Furthermore, the aspiration bar cannot be accessed without a reset process).

There was also going to be a Craft aspiration, but it was removed early on in development, as it is only referred to in unused text strings and tiny bits of code. However, the Craft aspiration was re-used in the console versions of the game.
