Fortune
Fortune (known as Wealth in The Sims 2 console versions) is an Aspiration in The Sims 2. Fortune Sims desire to work hard, gain promotions, earn money, and own expensive stuff. They are keen on gaining skills that are only related to their promotional requirements. They also only want to befriend other Sims if a promotion requires any. Fortune Sims are afraid of getting fired, robbed, or stuff taken by Repo-man. The career-involved fears include missing the carpool and being demoted. Many Business-related wants are rolled when Fortune Sims own a business, and is present there if Open for Business is installed.
As teenagers, Fortune Teens always want to become overachievers, by getting an A+ grade and achieving the top of teen career. They also want to be enrolled in private school and get many scholarships[TS2:U].

Tips & Tricks
- If one wants to pair a Fortune Sim with someone that doesn't also have the Fortune aspiration, the easiest are a Popularity Sim or a Family Sim, since their wants won't clash very easily. Fortune Sims make particularly good partners for Family Sims, as their desire to earn raises and promotions will leave their spouses free to be homemakers and stay-at-home parents.
- Fortune Sims often make good companions for Knowledge Sims, as they are both ambitious and their wants don't usually clash. However this will not affect Chemistry.
- Fortune Sims tend to get on pretty badly with Grilled Cheese or Pleasure Sims, as they don't have much in common.
- Townies and NPCs with the zodiac sign of Gemini, Scorpio, or Capricorn generally have this aspiration.
- Some Fortune Sims also tend to have bad sides. They want to buy more things than they need.
