A Simple hack for The Sims.
This hack will let you start with more money.
This requires a hex editor.
Goto the directory that you installed The Sims. Then goto the UserData directory
and hex edit "Neighborhood.iff".
Search for "46414D49" This represents the start of section of the file for each
family that is available. If you have created your own family you will find the
name you used.
As long as you have not played (only created a family) then you can search
for "204E" which represents the default $20,000 each family starts with. See
example below:

Remember that this number is stored byte reverse order, so if you have a base
converter you can enter any value you want. Most good hex editors have base
converters, or you can use the calculator program that comes with windows.
Some values already setup in reverse order:
"40D003" for $200,000
"80841E" for $2,000,000
Starting with "20" enter the above one of the above numbers or your own choice.
