Line 5:
<blockquote>We've implemented something we call “Skill Careers” so that players who have Sims who are fishermen, inventors, writers, and more can now register as self-employed at City Hall. We’ve added the consignment store venue in town so that players who create things like paintings or find things like jewels can earn a profit and take advantage of their Sims’ entrepreneurial spirits.<ref>[http://www.gaminglives.com/2010/03/08/sims-3-ambitions-revealed/ Sims 3: Ambitions - Revealed] article</ref></blockquote>
Skill careers work the same way as ordinary careers except that Sims are registered as "self-employed" and promotions are linked entirely to money earned. Only skills that produce items - [[Painting]], [[Fishing (The Sims 3)|Fishing]], [[Gardening (The Sims 3)|Gardening]], [[Writing]], [[Photography]]{{vgversion|TS3:WA}},
The first level of promotion requires sales of approximately §30. Money can be made through sales at the [[consignment store]] for most skill careers.
Line 16:
===Advancement===
The way for a self-employed Sim to advance in their career is to earn [[Simoleon]]s by making and selling objects, or performing money-making activities, that are related to that career. Obviously, a Sim cannot advance in a skill career by making and selling objects
Horsemen(-women), earn money through equestrian competitions at the [[Equestrian Center]], while self-employed band members earn money by performing for tips and playing gigs.
Sometimes, depending on the career and career level, a Sim will receive a uniform for their job. This is ''not'' necessary for them to earn money, but it adds a feeling of realism to their employment.

Note that only fish count towards an angler's promotion. Objects found by fishing can still be sold but the money earned from the sale will not affect the angler's earnings. The fish must be sold to the supermarket or through the consignment store.

Sims in this career earn promotions based on the amount of money earned through growing plants.
Note that a gardener doesn't have to ''grow'' the produce, just sell it. Because of this, a gardener can easily earn income and promotions by harvesting from their neighbor's garden or community gardens.
{{Tip|The best way to make money from the gardening career is to harvest and sell money bags from money trees.}}
