The Sims: Unleashed

Circus is a career track[1][2] introduced in The Sims: Unleashed. Out of the twenty career tracks in The Sims, Livin' Large, and Unleashed, it has the lowest pay at ranks 1, one of the lowest pays at rank 10, and the second-lowest combined pay over all ten ranks ($3680), with only Slacker being worse. It has the dubious honor of dropping below even the Slacker pay curve from levels 3-6. However, it requires a very low number of friends to reach rank 10, making it a very easy career track to climb. It is inferior to the Hacker, Fashion, and Animal Care career tracks in every way.

Circus Career Levels
1) Popcorn Vendor
You ran away with the circus! And...they made you sell popcorn, and...they are paying you peanuts. At least the elephants will be your friends. Look at it this way: you get to dress funny and hang out with carnies - isn't that reward enough? Cooking 0 Mechanical 0 Charisma 0

2) Ticket Taker
No more greasy popcorn! Now it's just nice clean tickets to punch. You get to watch the show for free, plus the hours are totally kick-back! You will need to smile a lot and be the "fix-it clown" for the carnie boss. Just remember to show up, do what you're told, and maybe you'll have a shot at something more challenging.

3) Midway Carnie
Remember those scary weirdos at the fair when you were a kid? No wonder they had that vacant, glazed expression on their faces: rusting, decrepit rides held together with duct tape, kids screaming in their ears all day, managers breathing down their necks! Find some creative ways to manipulate your friends and get out of this racket! Cooking 0 Mechanical 1 Charisma 1

Step riiight UP! Now here is where your charisma really comes in handy. Can you get little kids to part with their allowance? Build a little muscle to deal with kids who complain, and learn exciting new tricks from your new carnie friends such as yelling, magnet and lead weight camouflage, and stuffed animal puppetry.

5) Clown
Unlike the sad excuses for clowns that show up at parties, you follow in the august tradition of the Commedia dell'Arte, court jesters, and harlequin acrobats that bring culture and mystique to the stage. You just keep telling yourself that...each time you practice looking "melancholy" in the mirror. Cooking 0 Mechanical 1 Charisma 2

6) Human Cannonball
Some of the other clowns got jealous by your constantly stealing the show. They want to see if you're as funny flying, and on fire. But don't blow up at them - get even. If you can pull this off, it's onward and upward for you. Besides, what's the worst they can do...fire you? Cooking 0 Mechanical 1 Charisma 4

7) Acrobat
Flying through the air seems to suit you well, now just do it without all the gunpowder. You'll need a little more strength and creativity to perform the complex tricks that keep jaws and simoleons dropping. Fix the nets for the trapeze artists, and maybe they'll let you "hang out" with them! Cooking 0 Mechanical 1 Charisma 5

Now you've got the swing of things! Keep that smile pasted on your face and your skin-tight costume pasted to your body. Remember - the audience doesn't care about the years of hard work and training - you're just one big spectacle, so give them their money's worth...and don't look into the flashbulbs!

9) Lion Tamer
The high-wire act frayed your nerves, so you opted for something less risky, like taming lions. After all, they've all been de-clawed, sedated, and well fed, so there's nothing to worry about right? There is no risk. There can't be any risk. Lions are just big loveable kitty cats. There is nothing to worry about. Don't worry. Just DON'T show any FEAR. Cooking 1 Mechanical 3 Charisma 8

Lions and cannons and clowns OH MY! Right to the top...the BIG TOP! But this is no time to relax, you'll need to stay on the ball, show up every day, and keep all your performers on their toes. You might be master today, but there are plenty of clowns out there hungry for your job. Keep working the crowd, and pandering to public taste. Cooking 1 Mechanical 3 Charisma 9
