How can you make money playing The Sims?
You can create and sell custom content (CC), mods, and curated resources for players through platforms like Patreon or your own subscription site. By offering exclusive items, building a supportive community, and using free trials, you can turn your Sims hobby into a 5–6 figure online business.
In this episode of the Attractive Mindset Podcast, we sit down with Nimalu, the creator of Nimalu Sims, who grew her Sims-based subscription community to over 14,000 members worldwide—without running ads. She shares how she turned her childhood passion for The Sims into a thriving online business, why representation in gaming matters, and the strategies she uses to keep members engaged and paying.
You’ll learn:
What “custom content” (CC) is and how it works
How to start a Sims subscription community from scratch
How free trials convert into long-term paying members
Ways to monetize gaming without streaming

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
