The Sims 4 has a lot of jobs that you can choose from. Some of them are extremely fun, while others can be quite boring and mundane. However, if you are looking for jobs that offer a lot of Simoleons, we will show you the 15 highest-paying jobs in The Sims 4.
Keep in mind that the salaries mentioned are weekly salaries, so don’t expect to get that much in a single shift. Keep in mind that this list isn’t in order. Instead, I listed down the jobs that I enjoy working while earning tons of money. With that said, let’s dive right in and get started.
Officer (Military)
- Salary: §16,880/week
- Working Hours Covert Operator: 6:00 PM – 2:00 AM (Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday)
- Working Hours Officer: 10:00 AM – 6:00 PM (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday)
Starting off with the best job in The Sims 4 that offers the most amount of money – the officer in the military. There are two branches that you can choose between – Covert Operator and Officer.
Regardless of which branch you select, you will earn $16,880 weekly. The major difference between the two fields is that the Officer branch shift is during the day while the Covert Operator’s shift is during the night.
Depending on what you prefer, you can choose between the two and adjust your sims’ schedule that way.
Stylist (Style Influencer)
- Salary: §15,000/week
- Working Hours: 12:00 PM – 6:00 PM (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday)
The Style Influencer field has two branches but the Stylist branch offers a lot of money. While it isn’t that different from the other branch, you will unlock a few new interactions with it. The best part is that you can unlock the Make Trends interaction and give sims around you a new makeover.
You will have to work for five days for six hours. It is all worth it in the end since you will be earning more money than almost any other career in the game.
Botanist (Gardener)
- Salary: §14,700/week
- Working Hours: 11:00 AM – 6:00 PM (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday)
If you think that your true calling is to be one with the plants, then the Botanist branch is just for you. The best part is that you can either go to work or work from home an hour before your shift starts to get an extra bonus.
Out of the two branches in this field – Botanist and Floral Designer – the former earns you more money. As a Botanist, you will have to work seven-hour shifts for at least five days a week. Since this was introduced in The Sims 4 Seasons expansion, it is automatically one of my favorite jobs.
Interstellar Smuggler (Astronaut)
- Salary: §14,868/week
- Working Hours: 2:00 PM – 11:00 PM (Sunday, Monday, Thursday, and Saturday)
Like other careers, the Astronaut path also has 10 total levels. Once you reach level seven, you will have the option to choose between two different directions. You can choose either a Space Ranger or The Interstellar Smuggler, depending on how you want to play.
The Interstellar Smuggles is the higher paying job out of the two branches. If you are feeling like a troublemaker, you can become The Interstellar Smuggler. You will need to have a rocket ship on your lot to complete the daily missions.
Trend Setter (Style Influencer)
- Salary: §13,530/week
- Working Hours: 12:00 PM – 6:00 PM (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday)
If you see yourself as someone that sets the trends, now is the time to become a Style Influencer. While both the branches in this field have great salaries, becoming a Trend Setter is the way to go since it offers more money.
Since this is a work-from-home career, you can relax while you make money. However, you still have to work six-hour shifts for five days. That won’t feel like a lot since you will be working from home and still earning a lot of money.
Civic Planner (Civil Designer)
- Salary: §12,600/week
- Working Hours: 6:00 AM – 3:00 PM (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday)
You can become a Civic Planner and make changes to your neighborhood to become more eco-friendly. You’ll have to work 10-hour shifts for four days a week which is quite tough but you can easily manage that once you get the hang of it.
Getting your point across is the name of the game. So, make sure that you have good relations with everyone in your neighborhood and have a high enough Charisma skill so that you can convince people as well.
Social Media (Public Relations)
- Salary: §12,684/week
- Working Hours: 8:00 AM – 3:00 PM (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday)
If you’ve wanted to dip your toes in the Social Media career path, this is the right time to do so. The game forces you to choose between being an Internet Personality or a Public Relations officer.
While you can get a good amount of bonus for being an Internet Personality, choosing the Public Relations branch offers you more money in the long run – making it one of the best career paths in the game.
Investor (Business)
- Salary: §12,992/week
- Working Hours: 8:00 AM – 4:00 PM (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday)
After reaching level 7, you can choose between an Investor and the Management branch. Choosing the Investor branch will allow you to not only earn the big bucks but also invest in stocks.
As any businessman would, you can gamble your life savings and get tons of stocks. If you think the time is right, sell them to earn extra money on the side. While that isn’t the ideal method of income, you can get even richer than you would normally on your paycheck.
Law (Private Attorney)
- Salary: §12,600/week
- Working Hours: 8:00 AM – 3:00 PM (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday)
The Law career path is extremely profitable in The Sims 4 – especially the Private Attorney. Once you reach level 7, you can choose between being a Judge or a Private Attorney. If you’d like to earn more money, make sure that you choose the latter.
Naturally, you will have to work hard on your Research and Debate skills if you want to make it big in this career. Plus, having the Charisma skill will also go in your favor. You will also be able to unlock unique interactions that will assist you in getting new clients and earning more money.
Make it big and everyone will have the words ‘Better Call Saul‘ on their tongues (whoops wrong show!)
Villain (Secret Agent)
- Salary: §12,875/week
- Working Hours: 2:00 PM – 7:00 PM (Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday)
If you’ve wanted to live your dream of being the ultimate bad guy, we have got just the career path for you. Plus, it gives you tons of Simoloens, so, there’s that. This is a fun career that feels extremely good to pursue once in a while.
The good news is that you will only work 5 days a week – that too for only 5 hours – which gives you ample time to spend with your family or relax. You also get some nice decorative items that are fitting for a villain in The Sims 4.
Diamond Agent (Secret Agent)
- Salary: §12,780/week
- Working Hours: 9:00 AM – 12:00 AM (Sunday, Tuesday, and Thursday)
Moving on to another job in the Secret Agent field, the Diamond Agent. This is the second branch in that field and while it earns slightly less than the Villain, you will still be earning the big bucks. This is a tough field as well since you will have to work 15-hour shifts three days a week.
To make it to the top, you need to have high Charisma and Logic skills. Both these skills will help you out a lot and allow you to earn various bonuses.
Boss (Criminal)
- Salary: §12,460/week
- Working Hours: 5:00 PM – 12:00 AM (Sunday, Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday)
Upon reaching a certain level in this career path, you can choose between Boss and Oracle. If you decide to become the Boss, you will gain a large chunk of bonuses and earn a lot of money as well.
On top of that, you can get tons of good (and rare ) items that you may or may not have stolen while working. If you want, you can proudly display them in your house or even sell them to earn some extra Simoleons.
Space Ranger (Astronaut)
- Salary: §11,816/week
- Working Hours: 10:00 AM – 5:00 PM (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday)
We talked about the Interstellar Smuggler previously, so, let’s talk about the Space Ranger. If you want to be a ‘goody two shoes’, you can choose this career path. While it doesn’t earn as much as the other branch, you will still live out your dream as an astronaut and a space ranger.
Plus, you’ll get a lot of free days as a Space Ranger, so you can focus on other parts of your sims’ life. Make sure that you have a rocket ship on your lot so that you can complete the daily missions and get promoted further.
Management (Business)
- Salary: §12,000/week
- Working Hours: 10:00 AM – 6:00 PM (Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday)
If you’d like to live out your Wall Street dreams, the Business career path is ideal for you. It not only offers a good chunk of money but also is quite organized. This path makes it easy for you to focus on your sims life and work without having no time for other activities.
After reaching level 7, you can choose between Business Tycoon and Angel Investor. Choose the former to earn the big bucks when you make it to level 10.
Doctor
- Salary: §11,200/week
- Working Hours: 9:00 AM – 7:00 PM (Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday)
Finally, let’s talk about doctors. If you have always wanted your sims to be a doctor or go into the medical field, you’ll be happy to know that they will earn a lot of money while doing what they love.
Once you reach the very top of this career, your sim will be able to practice everything you’ve learned as a doctor on other sims. You can also unlock a General Hospital room that you can place on your lot if you want to make your house feel like a hospital.
