Lifetime wish
This article needs a picture to illustrate what it is about. Find an image or upload one and add it.
A Sim must chose a Lifetime wish when growing from Teen to Young Adult, or when they are a Child or Teen and excel at a certain skill. The wish they choose must have something in common with the traits the Sim has, (i.e. if your Sim has the trait good then they most likely will not have the option of Master Thief for their Lifetime Wish). Below is a complete list of the 48 Lifetime wishes available in The Sims 3. If your sim completes his/her Lifetime Wish, they will not be able to chose a new Lifetime Wish via Change Lifetime Wish reward. Some players call it LTW.
