What Are the Odds We Are Living in a Computer Simulation?

The interesting question that i have is that if we're in a simulated universe, that could mean that civilizations can advance enough to make a simulated universe. Given that, how many levels down are we?

Evolution of life could be seen as simulated life climbing the ladder to higher and higher levels of complexity. Maybe the simulation analytical and can evolve itself as does the whole universe and the nature of the simulation software itself.

Possibly. My first questions about that would concern entropy and time dilation. However, I'm not a physicist, so maybe I'm not asking the right questions.
 
This could answer the question of how did all the physical, energy and material elements of the universe come from absolute nothing? Because it is nothing but analogous to a computer simulation.
