Playing the game without cheats will make purchasing traits a much more consequential action. Cheats like getting more money can make the Frugal trait, and many others, obsolete. Purchasing traits will depend on what the player's ultimate goal is, and whether or not Sims 4 's cheats are being used. For example, players who aren't interested in writing bestsellers or painting masterpieces won't benefit from the Creative Visionary reward. Some of the traits have minor effects or won't be worth buying depending on playstyle. There is a rewards store in The Sims 4 from which players can purchase useful items and traits after earning enough points.
