'''Fines''' are penalties that can occur in most games in ''The Sims'' series. Fines subtract money from the household's funds. If there are not enough to cover the fine, household funds will be reduced to zero. In addition, objects ''may'' be repossessed, though this will depend on the game and the reason for the fine.
 
==The Sims==
Fines in ''The Sims'' fines are different from ''The Sims 2'' and ''The Sims Stories''. Whenever a fine occurs, a sound effect will play.
 
''Note: that ''The Sims'' for console, ''The Sims Bustin' Out'', and the Mac OS X version isare based on the Windows version of ''The Sims''.'' As such, fines in those games will be the same or similar.

[[File:TS Firefighter fine.png|thumb|right|Firefighter fine in ''The Sims'' for Windows.]]Calling the firefighter will result in a fine. Unlike the police, there is no warning message. If the family has less than §100, objects will be taken away. The fine is §100 in these games.
====Chemistry Set====
If a Sim makes or drinks a potion from the [[The "Concoctanation Station"|chemistry set]] during the daytime, he or she can be fined §500 if the set is outsidelocated outdoors.{{Vgversion|TS:LL}} A Sim can also be fined if the potion is drunk outside during the daytime. The fine is <span style="font-weight:normal;">§500.</span>
 
====Magic====
If a Sim uses magic in front of a non-magical Sim (a Sim without a wand, who is in the same room as the caster and is not the target of the spell), the Spellchecker will show up and a fine will occur.
Line 62 ⟶ 67:
A §250 fine will be assessed if a Sim player calls the police or fire department when there is no emergency. If the Sim has §249 or less, objects will be taken away.
==[[The Sims 3]] and [[The Sims 3 (console)|The Sims 3 for Console]]==
The Sims 3 fines work almost the same as ''The Sims 2'' and ''The Sims Stories'' except that a lecture will no longer severely decrease relationship.

===Detonating/Smashing===
In ''[[The Sims 3: Ambitions]]'' and ''[[Compilations of The Sims 3#The Sims 3: Deluxe|The Sims 3: Deluxe]]'', a Sim can be fined for detonating objects (or using Smash as a Simbot){{confirm}} outside of the [[Junkyard]] or the Sim's home. At first, this will result in a warning, but after the first time, it will result in a fine. Fines may be cheap (§50) or expensive (§175,000) but this depends on the cost of the object. With ''[[The Sims 3: Late Night]]'', the Sim may also get the Publicly Disgraced [[Moodlet|&nbsp;moodlet]]. While this does not automatically take away [[Simoleon|cash]], it adds to the Sim's bills. Detonating objects in other Sims' homes does not cause a fine but this is considered inappropriate behavior and you will be warned accordingly unless your Sim has the relevant traits or lifetime rewards.
