Ineed a computer that can handle The Sims Complete Collection without crashing! Money not an object, what computer would you suggest?

Well, the min requirements are weak... so most any new PC will work. I would upgrade the video card if purchasing something like a dell. Most of the time, they have onboard graphics... which can be weak and only run games at the lowest settings. So, add an ATI or nVidia card...

If money is NO object... go balls out. Get an alienware PC.. then you should be able to run any game :)

Of course you would need a computer with A LOT of space. The sims takes up a lot of GB. Check how much it uses on the back of the box and get a computer that has a lot more GB than the game. Laptops can probably handle the game well. Mine worked well with the game but I only have the sims 2 without the expansion packs. Did your game come with an installation manual. If it did it should have information about the amount of disk space you need on the computer.
