Broke family: Difference between revisions

The '''Broke family''' is a playable family who appear in [[Pleasantview]], inthe town shipped with ''[[The Sims 2]]'', and in [[Riverview]], ina town purchasable from ''[[The Sims 3 Store]]''. In both games, as their last name suggests, they are fairly short on [[Simoleons]].

In ''The Sims 2'', the Broke family resides in [[Pleasantview]]. It consists of [[Brandi Broke]], widow of [[Skip Broke|Skip]]; [[Dustin Broke|Dustin]], a rebellious [[teen]] street hawker going steady with [[Angela Pleasant]]; and [[Beau Broke|Beau Broke]], a [[toddler]] who is not well learned in his essential toddler skills. 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 that was introduced in ''[[The Sims]]''. However, she does not appear in ''The Sims, ''possibly due to her not being born in that game.

In ''The Sims 3'', almost all Brokes have either the [[Slob]] or [[Party Animal]] traits. This is probably why none of the adults can hold a full-time job. Skip and Mary Lu (who is a Broke by marriage) are the only ones who don't have either of those traits, possibly due to them not being actual Brokes by genetic value. All Brokes, with the exception of Ruby and Skip, wear cheap clothes and enjoy electronica music.
