Concept of this challenge was designed and created by my teenage daughter. She doesn't have an account and so asked me to post it. I helped her with some of the rules ;)

All structured ideas are welcomed and encouraged.

1.Create an Adult sim in CAS
2.Move sim into any sized lot
3.Sim may only start out with money they received from CAS
4.You can move pets in from CAS if you have the pets ep
5.Once you move into your lot you must buy 1 of each skill building object on the first day and you may never sell any of the skill building objects once placed on the lot (they can however go into inventory). So for Creativity your sim can buy either the easel or a musical instrument (it’s up to you) but they don’t have to buy all of them. One object for each skill building. The bookcase counts as 3 for cooking, cleaning and mechanical. The TV counts as 2 cooking and body. You can buy more than one skill building objects such as both a tv and a bookcase. The point is that you have to have at least one for each skill building category on the lot on the first move in day and you may not delete them once they are placed on the lot.
6.You may not dig for treasure unless they are on vacation.
7.You need to have Seasons in order to plant a veggie garden. You will want to do this and/or put in a small pond for fishing in order to feed your sim. Seasons EP is a requirement to play this challenge.
8.You must have the seasons in this order Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter
9.Your sim may not get a job until all skill categories are maxed to 10.
10.Once your sim’s skill categories are maxed to 10 you must adopt a baby and get a job on the same day.
11.Your sim must reach their lifetime want.
12.Your sim must reach the top of a career field.
13.Your sim may not use any game play cheats or hacked custom content.
14.Your sim needs to pay $300.00 anytime they use an aspiration reward object other than the thinking cap or the elixir (these 2 items are free to use at all times). You may pay the $300.00 in foliate. You must purchase trees, shrubs or flowers and may never sell these items once placed on the lot. They must meet at least $300.00 per aspiration reward use. So if you use points to buy a Weather machine you have to pay $300.00 every time your sim wants to use it to change the winter to spring/summer (for gardening purposes). Or if you want your sim to have a Lifetime want that is reaching the top of their career and you use the ReNuYu Senso Orb you must pay $300.00 per use even if you don’t get the LT. Want you were going for.
15.Your sim’s LT Want may not be “Max all Skills”. You may use the ReNuYu for free in this instance to change their LT Want (ONE time).
16.When your first adopted baby becomes a toddler you must adopt another baby.
17.When your first adopted child ages up and becomes a child you must adopt another baby.
18.When your first adopted child ages up and becomes a teen you must adopt another baby.
19.Raise all 4 children and move them out or send them to college (they must move out 3 days before aging into adulthood).
20.Sell all items in your challenge sim’s inventory (hobby making items, gifts etc).
21.Note the amount of money your sim has (do not calculate the price of the lot or any vacation, or other real estate properties owned, only the CASH on hand will be noted.
22.See how much money your sim can accumulate in this challenge.

If you lose your adopted kids to the social worker you must start over the adoption process until 4 adopted children have been raised successfully.
Tip: Do not put kids into private school. They will no longer receive cash rewards in school.
Get the kids to help your sim raise money by painting, tinkering old cars and selling them for cash, writing and selling cookbooks, giving financial advice, working as baristas etc. and getting teen jobs.

Everything is ok except for digging for treasure. Your sim can only dig while on vacation. Once they are home from vacation however all items in inventory can be added to the family funds.

You may not move anyone into the lot until the 4th child has been raised.

The challenge ends once all children are rasied, LT want is fulfilled and career is maxed.
Or…
If your sim dies before completion.

Additional information:

While trying this challenge I realized it wasn't specified how many pets could be added to the family at start. It should be limited to 2 pets. I recommend you choose one male and one female of cats or dogs and breed them to sell their offspring.

Pets should not be able to get jobs either until they have maxed all attainable skills.

My poor sim has only $79 !! This challenge is definitely difficult.

Also if a sim gets a genie lamp or wishing well they can use them.

I'm just going to note that once children are taken away by the social worker, the adoption agency will no longer allow you to adopt.

thank you I did not realize that. I assumed they would be permitted to adopt later as the service npc's will return after non payment eventually as well.
hopefully nobody loses their kids then or they will have to start over.
