Exploit bonds for unlimited money in SimCity 2000 DOS with the Fund Trick, netting $1.5 million yearly.

This trick only works in DOS and is an incredibly useful glitch, not a real cheat.

  • Must be playing SimCity 2000 in DOS.
Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Start a new city, either in the Terrain Editor or with a randomized terrain.
  2. 2
    Before doing anything else, type "fund" and accept the bond.
  3. 3
    Type "fund" again and accept a second bond.
  4. 4
    Open the Budget Window and then open the books on bonds.
  5. 5
    Issue a third bond.
  6. 6
    Pay off the first two bonds.

If you return to the Budget Window, you will see that you are now collecting negative interest on the bond you still have, meaning the bank is paying you to keep the bond. This will net you approximately $1.5 million a year, which should take care of any money problems.

Tips
  • This fount of wealth will eventually dry up because of a simulator-imposed money limit.
  • When the trick stops working, simply pay back the bond.
