My age? Well, if you add Yinepu's and iforgot's ages together, you'll still be almost ten years below my real age. I try to keep young by having a lot of teenage friends, but they're all Sims! The Sims 2 is the only computer game that's ever really held my interest. But of course I didn't play computer games as a child -- it just wasn't an option for 1950s kids. (Well, not unless they had a parent working in research at AT&T Bell Labs!)

You have my respect. I mean that. If there's one thing I've learned in life: Those older than you will always possess knowledge you simply cannot. For example, experience of the 70s, 80s, etc.
It's one thing reading history books, it's a whole different thing living it.
I owe a lot of my 'technical' knowledge to older generations. I was 10/11 years old kicking around wanting to learn how to make websites, etc, way back when to do so actually meant learning something. It was the older generations that taught me. I wouldn't possess the technical knowledge I have today if not for them. I certainly wouldn't have been a linux user for the past 20+ years.
I even have some very basic knowledge of how to use/administer systems from the 60s/70s due to people I used to know who were around to administer those systems at the time who yapped on about it. (They stopped responding a while ago, no idea why.)
The technical knowledge you can gain from your elders is priceless and well worth finding! The goal of communication is to share and gain knowledge, after all!
(Note: I realize that this may sound I am calling you an elder, but that is not my intention!)

Now my new question: Do you provide spare bedrooms in your Sims' houses? Finances and space allowing, I generally do provide extra sleeping accommodation in the houses that I build or adapt for them. I just can't imagine building a mansion that size, and only putting one bed in it. I expect people living in houses like that to run houseparties on long weekends.

I generally only add enough bedrooms as necessary.
