I did. I didn't get to hack tickets ('cause I have seen you mentioning them few posts later?), but you can buy some of them for sim cash, and I didn't have to use the ones you can't buy for cash, yet, so I decided I'll worry about them when the time comes.

Is your game new? I have been trying this on two games - one my regular save, and one a new save, I started just so I can test the hack there, first. I didn't get any 9-digit values (or any bigger than 5 digits, to be accurate), so I tried on my regular save.
If it's a new game, and you barely started first job with first sim, try to progress a bit and try again, maybe?
