| ⚫ | In ''The Sims 2'', the Broke family resides in [[Pleasantview]]. It consists of [[Brandi Broke]], widow of [[Skip Broke|Skip]]; [[Dustin Broke|Dustin]], a [[teen]] going steady with [[Angela Pleasant]]; and [[Beau Broke|Beau]], a [[toddler]]. When the family is first played, Brandi is pregnant with her [[Unborn baby Broke|third child]] from the deceased Skip. Brandi is also the daughter of [[Bob Newbie|Bob]] and [[Betty Newbie]], a married couple introduced in ''[[The Sims]]''. However, she does not appear in ''The Sims''. |

As the name suggests, they have a monetary situation, supposedly because Brandi has just lost her husband and source of income. The family has around §930 in funds, which wouldn't be so bad if it had any source of income other than Dustin's teen job. The family has a net worth of around §25,000, and Brandi does have one or two things which can be sold for cash, but that's not a long-term solution to the family's financial problems. |

In ''The Sims 3'', the Brokes appear to have either the traits of [[Slob]] and [[Party Animal]]. Skip and Mary Lu (who is a Broke by marriage) are the only ones who don't have either of those traits. |
