RELATED: Best Ways To Earn Money In Sims 4

Both Business career paths in The Sims 4 offer comfortable salaries and fairly straightforward promotion trajectories, meaning Sims in either track of the Business career will live comfortably in exchange for their long 40-hour weeks. Here’s everything you need to know about the Business career in The Sims 4.


Business Career Overview

Manage Or Invest: Choose Between Management Or Investor Career Paths

In The Sims 4, the Business career is one of the more lucrative career options in the base game. While you start your career in the mailroom, you’ll have the opportunity to sharpen two critical skills and compound on that effort to earn your promotions.

You choose your career path at Level Seven in the Business career. The two paths in The Sims 4 Business career are:

  • Investors, who seek to play the Stock Market and use their strength with numbers to earn, invest, and earn some more.
  • Management, who work most directly with the people in the company and rely on their people skills.

Unlike plenty of other careers in The Sims 4, the Business career requires Charisma and Logic regardless of which branch you choose.

The only difference is which you’ll need to max out, with Investors focused on their Logic skill and Management reliant on their Charisma.

Whichever skill isn’t your branch’s primary skill will still need to be raised to Level Eight, so you’ll be working plenty with both skills.

Helpful Traits And Moods For The Business Career

An interesting split between focus-based traits and interpersonal ones, the Business career in The Sims 4 benefits from a number of different traits.

With both Charisma and Logic required, it’s helpful to be both Outgoing and a Genius to help with raising both of these skills. Geniuses pick up Logic faster, while Charisma comes more naturally to the outgoing.
