Generation 2, part 4

So, starting off from last time, Jimmy wakes up Jimmy Junior and reads to him to get a bonus skill sorted (painting) by reading him one of the kid's skill books on finger painting. It's also a good bonding tool as by the time it's done J J and his dad are best friends.

Then it was Emma's time to shine, getting JJ to talk and have all the skills done. Again it is a good relationship booster, not that they needed it though as JJ and his mum always had a good friendship.

Marcus came back from his first day at work (part time in the Spa i think) and was exhausted. He took a quick nap before sorting out his homework and having dinner.

Emma came back home with a new blender from work after gaining a promotion (the one below executive chef) as a bonus along with the extra cash. It isn't in her LTW to be a 5 star chef but it does bring in some good cash (she wants to be a Cookery Librarian) so I keep her on the job until she either reaches the very top or finishes her LTW which is very close BTW (Level 9 in cooking currently, about 8 or so in the photo.)

Soon Marcus got a oppertunity from school to get a fish for the science lab for extra credit. Good thing their house is across the road from a big pond! Easy as Pie!

Before work, Jimmy sets to upping his logic skill through a one sided game of chess while wearing some VERY dapper clothes, considering how upper lower class his family is. They are essentially well to do chavs at the moment, can afford decent enough stuff but it still looks a tad tacky.

That doesn't last long though, as a few hours later, Jimmy achieves his LTW and some serious cash. He is now at the top of his career ladder as a Hit Movie Composer.

Not only that but he gets a top of the line stereo system with it for free! Jimmy decides to put it to good use, and throw a big birthday party for Jimmy Junior the next day, sending his youngest into the next stage in style.

So, due to his eldest getting a promotion in his part time job, Jimmy puts a little money towards Marcus's first car, albeit a clunker.

The next day rolls around and Jimmy sets off for his first day as something of a music legend, and the last time as an adult. Tomorrow won't be just JJ's birthday, oh no. Jimmy Sr is about to hit his 70's. But what a ride. He and his family are officially Middle Class.
