*****************************************************************************

This in-depth FAQ will give information about all the Aspiration and Career
Rewards in The Sims 2. Since most of these items are from the base game i
will include them all in here, rather than making seperate guides for the
different expansion packs. Next to each item it will say whether it is from
University or Nightlife. If it is from the base game there will be no
information stating so.
