'''Business''' is a [[career]] available in ''[[The Sims]]'', ''[[The Sims 2]]'', ''[[The Sims 3]]'', and ''[[The Sims 4]]''.
==The Sims==
Of the ten career tracks in the base game, Business had the third-lowest pay at rank 1 but the third-highest at rank 10, behind only '''Entertainment''' and '''Pro Athlete''', and follows a similar pay curve to those two. Requiring 14 friends to reach maximum rank, it was also tied with Entertainment for second-hardest career track to climb (behind '''Politics'''). At rank 10, its ratio of pay to friends required is pretty average ($1200/14 friends = 85.7), but lower than those of the career tracks with the most similar pay curves (Pro Athlete and '''Science'''). Out of the 20 career tracks in the base game, Livin' Large, and Unleashed, it offers more or less average pay at rank 1, is in a three-way tie (with Journalism and '''Paranormal''') for fifth-highest pay at rank 10, and has the sixth-highest combined pay over all ten ranks ($5400), but is in a three-way tie for fifth-hardest to climb.

The Career reward object is the [[Career rewards#Execuputter|Execuputter]]. It is unlocked when a Sim reaches Executive (career level 5), and raises [[Fun]] and [[Charisma]]. If ''[[The Sims 2: Apartment Life]]'' is installed, [[Tech]]s and [[Socialite]]s are likely to be employed in this career. College majors associated with this career are Economics and Psychology. When using [[Package editor#SimPE|SimPE]] to change a Sim's career, the Business career will be labeled as Economy.

A new seaport would allow many of <Sim>'s corporations access to trade routes in other regions much earlier in the corporation's developmental lifespan than trucking products via land routes. A seaport would also allow well-established companies a much faster distribution rate, but on the other hand, it would be more immediately economical to simply acquire more trucks and ship higher volumes.
