Other hobbies including dancing, sports, games (meaning digital and others), and more, each of which has at least one way to make some cash for your efforts. Tinkering your own stereo won't accomplish anything, but you can use it to restore old cars, and then sell them for decent profits. The hobbies can be used to, possibly, make money on their own. So rather than the boring methods of studying the skills, you can get some hands-on experience with the job skill instead. Not only does this increase the Sim's fun meter, it increases his mechanical job skill as well. For example, you can use the "tinkering" hobby to mess around with electronic devices. As always, the hobbies are blended seamlessly into the rest of the experience, and can even be used to help your jobs.

The idea here is that your Sims have been diligently working away on their relationships, jobs, and family happiness for some time now. First, let's address the gimmick of the expansion pack.
