Yes, with my first three games I was reading this thread avidly for the first few generations to choose peeps that earned the most. Now they've all got more money than they can spend, so I've not bothered with the recent generations.

I started a new game the other day, however, and chose a peep who is a video game designer and who'll earn $690 when he gets to be a master. Oddly enough, the third proposal that came in was a perfect match, so I'll have two of them earning top money soon.
