==The Sims==
The '''musician''' career track is one of the five Career Tracks from ''The Sims'' expansion pack ''Livin' Large''. It has a similar pay at rank 1 and the same pay at ranks 9 and 10 as [[entertainment]] from the base game, but follows a much more bent pay curve along the way, with lower pay at every rank except 9 and 10, the fifth-lowest pay in the game at ranks 5 and 6, and the fourth-lowest pay at rank 7, beating only [[slacker]], [[circus]], and [[education]]. It also requires a higher number of friends to reach rank 10 than Entertainment does.
