4!!The game provides examples of:
5
6* BigFancyHouse: There are several mansions for sale that the player character is welcome to purchase.
7* ButThouMust: Unwanted births are rather common. If your partner wants to keep the unwanted baby, there is no way to tell them not to, nor is there a way to avoid letting the child live with you until they become of age.
8* ChildhoodFriendRomance: The player character is able to begin dating at the age of twelve, and they can later get married. That is, if they don't get upset with the player character and break up with them over [[SeriousBusiness failing their driving test]].
9* ChildPopstar: It's entirely possible for the player to start a career in music as early as the age of ten.
10* CureForCancer: On rare occasions, the player character will get cancer, but it is nowhere nearly as deadly as it is in the real world. Any character that has some money will easily be able to dispel it with chemotherapy.
11* DisproportionateRetribution: Some of the reasons for your character getting into brutal fights are downright ridiculous. For example, falling into the toilet can end up with your character going to prison for murder.
12* DrivenToSuicide: It's an option for players who wish to begin the game over again with a new character. However, [[InterruptedSuicide it doesn't always work.]]
13* EnfantTerrible : It's possible to start your life of crime at the ripe age of ten.
14* FlyingCar: If the player character survives to see the year 2080, they can buy one!
15* FunctionalAddict: It's very possible to have a character who is a successful and well-liked millionaire, who also snorts and smokes every drug they can get their hands on.
16* GayOption: It's even advantageous, considering there is little other way to avoid unwanted pregnancies.
17* OneStatToRuleThemAll: An intelligent character will easily be able to make all the money in the world, marry any man or woman they would like, and raise successful children. Having low intelligence will limit one's character to extremely low paying jobs and not allow them to afford nice houses and cars.
18* PrisonRiot : You can instigate this freely whenever you're in prison. Be careful though, [[HoistByHisOwnPetard if you're unlucky you might get beaten like any other or even killed]].
19* PurelyAestheticGender: Much like in real life, female characters tend to live a bit longer than male characters. Obviously, only female characters can get pregnant. Otherwise, played straight.
20* TheSlacker: The character's parents will never kick them out for any reason, so there's nothing stopping them from living on their paycheck until forty, maybe even fifty years of age.
