Lifetime wish: Difference between revisions

{{Era|SO|TS3}}{{Distinguish|Lifetime want|Aspiration (The Sims 4)}}

A Sim must choose a lifetime wish during the game when growing up from [[childteen]] to [[teen]]young adult. Sometimes, when a [[child]] or teen excels at a certain skill, they will receive a lifetime wish in their wish slot, which they can choose to promise or not. The game will prompt if the player clicks it. If a child or teen picks a lifetime wish, they will not need to pick one when they become a young adult.

Once a Sim has completed their Lifetime Wish, they will not be able to choose a new Lifetime Wish viawithout the Changeuse Lifetimeof Wisha reward[https://modthesims.info/d/623109/new-lifetime-goals.html pre-installed mod]. If a Sim uses the Change Lifetime Wish reward to select a new Lifetime Wish instead of fulfilling their current one, the amount of Lifetime Happiness Points on the wish the player changes to is reduced by 100,00010,000.

On [[The Sims 3 (console)|''The Sims 3'' for consoles]], there is a glitch that allows the player to have any Lifetime Wish they want, regardless of Traits, on the Create a Sim screen by choosing a trait that inspires a certain Lifetime Wish (like choosing ''"[[ fat womanEvil]]"'' for "''The Emperor of Evil''") and then hitting Undo, allowing a Sim to get back the original trait they had without losing the Lifetime Wish they just chose.{{Clarify}}

There are several ways for a teen or child to trigger a lifetime wish. Often, being mean to another Sim and/or beating them up will trigger the Emperor of Evil or Super Popular wishes. Watching a Sim die will trigger Emperor of Evil, World Renowned Surgeon, Star News Anchor, or Creature-Robot Cross Breeder. Seeing a ghost will often trigger Creature-Robot Cross Breeder. If a parent gets promoted, the child may roll a lifetime wish with the career of the parent, or even a rebellious career wish opposing the parent's career if the parent is working either in being[[Law kinda stupidEnforcement]] or as a bighead [[Criminal]]. Dining at a [[Bistro]] may trigger Celebrated Five Star Chef. Watching a game at the stadium or working out may trigger Superstar Athlete or <span style="font-weight:400;">Perfect Mind, Perfect Body. Witnessing a burglary may trigger the Become a Master Thief, <span style="font-weight:400;">Forensic Specialist: Dynamic DNA Profiler</span> or International Super Spy wishes. B</span>eing read to sleep by a logic book or playing chess enough will trigger depacitoChess Legend yay, and occasionally gaining a skill point will trigger Renaissance Sim.

Sims with the [[Ambitious]] trait will gain 15% more lifetime happiness points (rounded to multiples of 500). For example, an Ambitious Sim with the Gold Digger lifetime wish will earn 23,000 points instead of 20,000. Below is a complete list of lifetime wishes available in ''[[The Sims 3]]''.
