How does money work within the Virtual Families 3 game?
What makes the Virtual Families 3 game challenging is getting enough coins or “money” in the game, so that you can upgrade your home and characters and so that you can buy new décor items for your home. This is just one of the aspects of the game that mimics the way that the real world works.

Virtual Families 3: Artist work area
Although there are many different ways to earn money in the Virtual Families 3 game, the main way that you can earn coins or money in the game is through the salary that your adult characters earn by doing their jobs.
Artist is just one of the many careers that your character can have when you adopt them at the beginning of your game. Some of the other careers include occupations such as architect, candy designer, engineer, film critic, and more.
When you first start practicing in your career in the game, you will be at a beginner level. As you increase your skill and expertise through working at a work area, your salary will increase and you will be able to earn more money as time progresses.
For artists, this work area is in the office and not the workshop or kitchen. This is doubly-beneficial as more money will give you more freedom in many aspects of the game and it will also allow you to upgrade your workshop so that you can progress even faster and further in your career.
Each career has its own “area” where your character has to work in order to progress with their careers.
You will eventually be able to upgrade these work areas, which will make it much easier for your character to be motivated for work and to progress even more quickly through the ranks in their chosen career paths.
How can artist characters progress in their careers in Virtual Families 3?
The only way to increase your salary in Virtual Families 3 is to encourage your character to progress through the ranks in their careers by working in their work area.
All of the characters start off as beginner artists, but the more your characters work, the quicker they will progress in their career and the higher their salary will become, as is explained in the table below:
| Rank | Salary amount |
| Beginner | 60 |
| Novice | 75 |
| Apprentice | 90 |
| Licenced | 114 |
| Practiced | 144 |
| Accomplished | 180 |
| Exceptional | 225 |
| Master | 285 |
This means that master is the top-most rank that your character can reach in their artist career and your character will be earning 285 coins as a salary, compared to the 60 that they earned as a beginner.
This is why it is worthwhile to focus on progressing your character’s career as one of your main goals in the game.
