## Summary

This guide explains how to earn money efficiently in Roblox My Prison without spending real money. The creator shares strategies focusing on research upgrades, workshop and infirmary investments, and optimal staff allocation to maximize passive income.

### Key Points

- **Core Goal: Earn Money Without Donations** [00:01] — The video addresses the most common question: how to earn money without donating. The game revolves around building and developing a prison, which requires money.
- **Initial Income from Prisoners** [01:10] — Initial prisoners bring $10 per minute. Filling the prison with maximum prisoners is not enough for full development.
- **Medium-Security Criminals Research** [01:51] — This research costs $50,000 but only increases income by $1-2 per prisoner per minute, making it inefficient as a first step.
- **Wanted Criminals** [02:07] — Wanted criminals appear on the notice board or from stopping a stolen car. They provide slightly higher income per minute.
- **Workshop Research Priority** [03:19] — The Workshop research costs $23,500 and allows installing machines (circular saw $900, press $1,000) for prisoners to work, generating income when a courier picks up boxes at 6 PM daily.
- **Infirmary Research** [06:34] — Costs $17,500. Allows treating sick prisoners multiple times a day, providing frequent income. Requires hospital beds and a nurse ($1,000 salary).
- **Optimal Research Order** [08:35] — Study Workshop first, then Infirmary, then Medium-Security Criminals. This order helps accumulate $50,000 faster.
- **Staff Allocation for 100 Prisoners** [09:05] — For 100 prisoners: 20 guards (1 per 5 prisoners), 7 cooks (1 per 15 prisoners), 7 repairmen, 4 cleaners, 3 nurses, and 3 dog handlers. Total 44 workers.

### Conclusion

By prioritizing Workshop and Infirmary research before upgrading prisoner security, players can significantly boost income without donations. Proper staff allocation ensures smooth prison operation and maximum profit.

## Transcript

saving up a lot of money to build your own prison and not only in Roblox My Prison is the most frequently asked question that I see in the comments under the video. Today I will share my personal experience and tell you how to start earning more
money without donating. Hello everyone, it's Chase with you and we are in Roblox My Prison. Of course, the point of the game is not to earn as much money here as possible, but to build and develop your prison as much as possible,
develop your prison as much as possible, but no matter how you look at it, everything comes down to this very money. We will not consider a way to earn money with the help of donations, because not every one of us can donate to buy ourselves. Here is a
money fountain that brings us 15 dollars every 5 seconds, or buy a 15 dollars every 5 seconds, or buy a game pass for income here. By the way, here is a game pass for income here. By the way, here is a
you will receive only  2 dollars more Therefore, we account the fact that not each of us can donate to the game, but we will consider all the options that will lead us to large
options that will lead us to large earnings without spending Robux here, as I already said, our initial imprisoned criminals, they bring us 10 dollars a minute. Of course, we can fill our prison with the maximum
number of prisoners, but in this way, you and I will not receive the money that is needed for full development in this game. And to increase income from prisoners, we can, of course, study the study called
medium-security criminals. There is just one nuance: it costs 50,000 dollars, and our criminals will bring us income of only 1-2 dollars more, accordingly, the first such first step to increase
earnings is absolutely not suitable for us. Most likely, this will be one of the next steps, but by no means the first. Periodically, wanted criminals appear in our game; they can appear on your notice board. But
if you do not have such a board, accordingly, you will not know that they have appeared on our map in our city; there is a helicopter flying here, which  He's trying to catch up with a stolen car. If we stop this car, we
can get wanted criminals from there, respectively, from such criminals. We will also earn a couple of dollars more per minute. Of course, I would like there to be some additional tasks for completing
which we would also be given money, but unfortunately, there are no tasks as such here, even if we go through a live event, which, by the way, we watched this video yet, the link to it will be in the description, also in the tips in the
upper right corner, we do not receive money for completing it. All the money that we can earn with you lies in the criminals themselves, as well as the research that we study in the game. There are two types of research
that will help us increase our income. The first research that I would advise you to study is a research called Workshop. All our research is in the management tab. There is a
person icon there. Click on it and almost at the very end of the list we have a magnifying glass like this. When we click here, all our research will appear here. Now I don't have them because I have completely studied them all and it is
certainly not very expensive.  It's cheap, $23,500, but now I'll explain $23,500, but now I'll explain why it's best to study it first. We'll take a study called "
medium-security criminals." I remind you that it costs $50,000. So, if we study the Workshop technology, we'll have the opportunity to install machines for workers. Workers are our prisoners. We'll have
machines like these, we have a press machine, and we'll also have the opportunity to install machines like these, a woodworking machine. Our woodworking machine. Our prisoners have their schedule:
now it's sleep, they have breakfast, sports. And there's work time, and when this time comes, they come here and start working at these machines. We have a tab called "functional." There's a toilet drawn there,
click on it, then the second tab, "other needs," and here, practically at the very bottom, there are our machines like these. A circular saw costs $900, and a press, that is, our press costs $1,000. Of course,
the more we  We will install such machines. The more money we will earn, The more money we will earn, as you can see. Our repairman is a man who goes around here and fills up all the holes that the prisoners dig. He also
carries the very boxes that our prisoners leave behind after their work. our prisoners leave behind after their work. They take all these boxes to the bus stop, where They take all these boxes to the bus stop, where they are then picked up by a courier car. All
these boxes are stored here. The car that arrives at 6:00 pm, that is, at 6:00 pm, picks up all these boxes, and thus we receive money for this. To begin with, we will only be able to install a
circular saw, which costs $900. Of course, we will have more income from pressed machines, but for starters, we will have more than enough circular machines, so we are studying this technology whenever possible. For example,
as I already said, compared to average-security criminals, we spent $23.5 million, so we still have $26,500 left. We are installing such machines.  20-21 pieces for
example. Yes, and thus we already receive income several times greater than we would have. For example, there are 20-30 medium-security prisoners there. The second study, which will also help us earn money, is our study
called the infirmary, this is the hospital where our prisoners will be treated. It costs, of course, a little cheaper than, say, a workshop study. The
infirmary study costs 17,500 dollars. Thus, you and I will treat our patients and also receive money for this. If we receive money for the workshop only once a day when the courier car arrives at 6:00
pm, then for the patients we will receive money not once a day, but several times a day. As you can see now, my prisoners go to the hospital, they are sick, so they lie down on hospital beds. Yes, when we study this
technology, this study, we will need to purchase hospital beds like these, where our patients will lie, and also buy a nurse, and that's and also buy a nurse, and that's why we don’t. We put this study in first place,
even though it costs less. workshop All because Here is such a nuance, for example, Our repairman who is at Well, when we hire him, he costs 550 dollars and we pay him 18 dollars an hour, he performs two functions for
us: he buries the holes that our prisoners dig and also carries these boxes, then our nurse performs only one function, she will only treat prisoners, one nurse costs us 1,000 dollars, and for each
such extracted criminal, you and I will also receive money, accordingly, the more criminals you have and the more such beds you have, then the more they will be treated here per day, and thus you
will also replenish your wallet with money here, accordingly, when we study these two studies, we will move on to the study of medium- security criminals. Here, with the help of these two studies, it will be much
easier for us to accumulate these 50,000 for this study, and thus we will be able to earn much more dollars per game day and our income will increase, and with medium-security criminals, we will also increase
simply passive income in  a minute which we simply get for keeping these prisoners in our prison also in the comments you asked me about the employees Namely, how to calculate the number of employees, that is, our
number of employees, that is, our workers in the prison so that it would be possible to hire more precisely to collect the maximum number of prisoners, namely 100 people so now I will share what I have I will tell you specifically how many I
hired so that I had 100 prisoners in my prison and everything was automated so that there was no constant garbage that the prisoners scatter after each prisoners scatter after each meal, as well as constantly dug holes
that they try to dig as much as possible in order to escape from here for 100 prisoners I hired 20 guards Why I think you guess because we have one guard for five prisoners so that our
prisoners do not go hungry and do not go crazy about something about the fact that there are not enough cooks here I have seven such cooks at the moment one cook is designed for 15 prisoners Therefore, accordingly, in order  100 prisoners.
We had normal food. We'll have to hire seven cooks. Next, we'll move on to the repairman. Repairmen are very useful employees in our prison because the more repairmen, the better, of course. They
will, accordingly, fill up the holes through which prisoners try to escape faster. And they will also carry out boxes to the bus stop faster. So, I also have seven repairmen employed, but I'm a little short of cleaners.
I only have four cleaners, and as you can see, they cope with their work, considering that there are 100 prisoners here. They leave quite a lot of trash after lunch. They cope. Although I would like
more, I didn't hire more than four people because that way I would n't have room for other employees. Despite the fact that I have as many as 100 prisoners and such a huge hospital with a lot of
beds, there are only three nurses in my hospital. Well, I also left three places for the dog. So, I now have 44 workers in my prison
for 100 prisoners. Yes.  Unfortunately, there is a limit on workers here, there is such a bad thing here. As for me, I don’t know why they did this because here you really
need to look at exactly who to hire here, that’s all regarding development in terms of finances. If you try from the very beginning to earn more money for researching the workshop and then for researching the infirmary, then you
can very quickly accumulate money in order to study the research of medium-security criminals and even faster collect money for the next technologies, more precisely research. And this is the end of the video. If you have any
more questions about the game, be sure to ask, I will be happy to help you. Well, as always, it was a chase with you, everyone, have a good mood and see you soon in other mood and see you soon in other videos. Bye-bye everyone
