I'm trying the doctor again. When I was born I got 95% smarts so it was not a problem to get in to medical school. I had to major in nursing and instead of going to nursing school I went straight to medical school. That's the longest schooling. Lol. Now I'm a brain surjan aged 38 making over 300k. Didn't win the lottery as yet. My love life isn't working out at all. When I plan the wedding the girl don't want to sign the prenup so I keep breaking up with them.

By X2 on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

Ok thx. That really helps a lot. I’m going to try to get the CEO position. I’m trying to collect all the achievements I can. So far I have 30out of 62. And I know how you feel about prenups. I always get them signed. When I won the lottery and I was a lawyer, when I died, I left all my money to one of my signs and I did the generations feature. My son had about 80 million that he got from my death. And when his wife tried to leave him the judge demanded I paid 60 million but I just closed out the app and fixed our problems. But I died by the witch doctor lol. And then I played my grandson, which was my son’s son. And then I got 60 million playing him and my grandson,’s wife tried to leave him and a judged demanded me to pay her all my money. anyway, the point of the story is that they’re both dumb because they didn’t get a prenup before they got married lol. So for anyone reading this, get a prenup signed if you don’t want to lose all your money later on, of course, I mean in the game lol.

By Ornella on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

I'm trying to get all of them as well. Where is winna-peg? I never really see it in the travel's list of vacation listings. That is an achievement. For the prenup I don't waste my time with closing the app. If the person don't sign it I call off the engagement and break up with them. If I'm playing a male character and the woman makes me sign a prenup I will do it because I try to spin the lottery once each year and I'm sure that I will eventually win it and she won't get anything unless I feel generous. Sometimes when I'm so rich and I travel I take first class and business trips. Lol.

By X2 on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

Omg yes me too. I have been trying to get the Winnipeg achievement. I think it’s random. Just like the cliff diver and medieval attack, which I have both. And if you choose the business when you go on vacation, does that mean like a business trip? And I always try to get first class. How many achievements do you have? And do you have the skeezy achievement? I think that one is also random. Sorry for asking you lots of questions but i’m curious, do you have the escape artist one? I know that the prison escape isn’t accessible, so I probably won’t be able to get that one unless I have someone do it for me. I’ve tried it but with no luck.

By Ornella on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

I don't mind the questions. Lol. I don't have any of the escape achievements. I have 41 of 62 achievements. I will list. Complete a life. Octogenerian. Nonagenarian.Centenarian. Super-centenarian. Mega-centenarian. Millionaire. My second million. Multimillionaire. Rich. Super-rich. Stinking-rich. Doctor. Lawyer. CEO. Social media. Social media sharer. Social media over sharer. Social media star. Movie goer. Movie junky. Naughty child. Instigator. Justice. Midnight express. There's always Canada. Fabulously fertile. Stud. Animal rescue. Hero. Lambo. Car collecter. Real estate mogul. Traillor party. Mansion party. Jackpot. Booty call. Ultimate Betrayal. Successful rehab. Witchcraft. Cliff diver.

By X2 on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

Omg wow!!! That’s really impressive. Is the ultimate betrayal random? And did you save someone specific to get the hero achievement? Or is that one also random, like is there a pop-up that will ask you? And is the animal rescue also random? And wow, you survive the witch doctor. The witch doctor gave me some green liquid and I died lol. O and I forgot to mention, I think some achievements are for other countries. Like for example, the midnight express, well it says in the description, go to Turkish prison. But I think to get the hungry hippo and gorilla achievements, you’re supposed to live where they live, like Africa. Of course, I could be wrong, but I just started thinking about that the other day lol.

By Ornella on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

I'm still playing the doctor and my salary is 600k plus and my mortgage is almost payed off. I made a will leaving everything to my son but I'm hesitant because most times when ever I play I always outlive my children. I have a question. When or if my son do goes to colledge I want him to choose the medical profession. If he doesn't how do I make him do it? I forgot to say my wife screamed at me for cutting her out of the will. Lol. Surprised she didn't divorce me yet. Now on to some answers. For the hero achievement when something happens it will ask what you want to do and if you succeed you should get that achievement. I think same with the animal rescue. I rescued animals plenty times. For the ultimate betrayal I forgot the description for that but I can't remember if that one is having a gender change and the other partner leaves you. I might have to get back to you on that. For the witchcraft the doctor gave me some kind of cow testicles and it killed me. Lol. But I only survived that once.

By Sabrina on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

My children barely ever sign a prenupcial agreement and I had like 10000000 thousand and My dear husband, James, wanted a divorce and I asaulted him so I got into prison and when I got out I killed him because I got so pissed and then I got like 80 years in prison but I am so satisfied.

By Ornella on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

When ever people refuse to sign a prenup I just boot them out the door. Break up with them and move on. I got to disapprove of my son's major and the closest thing to medical was kemistry so I made him do that. He wasn't happy at all. His appreciation was 20%. I wish we could sue the people at the salon. I find that as you get up in age like 60's and up they don't do a good job. I went for a cut and a shave my satisfaction one time was 11%. And the thing before it said no refunds. Also if our children are injured they could have a pop up stating if you want to take the kid to the emergency room or hospital. I'm saying this because I bought a Bengal tiger and it attacked my son. Thank god he didn't die. On to pets. I think the exotic pet owner should have more than one pet. When I try to buy a second one from them in the same year they are always out of stock. And if they don't have this yet I hope they have a bunny ranch. I want to own hundreds of rabbits. Lol.

By Sabrina on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

Yeah, my children are stupid most of the time. Not good,. When I get married, without being my child, I ALWAYS sig a prenupcial agreement and I don’t give that up until they leave me and then I will find someone else.

By X2 on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

The ultimate betrayal is when your spouse leaves you following a gender reassignment surgery. And every time I try to rescue an animal, I get attacked. Last time I tried to save a sheep, it attacked me. I didn’t die though, just thought it was really funny.
@sabrina, I agree with you about your kids never signing a prenup. I did the generations feature, and my son and grandson were taken to court after their wives tried to divorce them. And the judge demanded I pay most of my money to them. And I only let one criminal life, every time I want to lead a criminal life, it ends up being the opposite lol. But maybe in my next life, I’m gonna customize it so I can be a Turkish citizen. That one I plan on leading a criminal life, since getting into Turkish prison is an achievement.
And I think to get the gorilla achievement, you have to buy a gorilla from the exotic pet owner. But I can be wrong. And yea, I agree with you, they should have more exotic pets available, like when you go to the animal shelter or pet store. And the option to save someone has never popped up for me. I never got to choose my kids major. Do you get that every time?

By X2 on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

If you breed rabbits, they multiply with in a blink of an eye lol. Hey, I just realized that rhymes lol. I know because my parents used to breed rabbits and the minimum that came out in a litter was nine or 10, and the max was like 12, I think. I don’t remember it was a while ago. Anyway, that’s not the point, that would be cool to breed animals. Like I really want to breed snakes. Even though, I had 8 of them at one point, they never like hooked up lol.

By Ornella on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

Well I did that one. Lol. I was a woman and I waited till I got married and had one child then I had the gender reassignment and my husband wasn't happy with it and he left me. I had to pay him money. For saving someone its not so much a pop up its like a random thing. Like if someone is trying to kill them self you could go in and save them from jumping over a ledge and I think that might get you the achievement. The thing with the major I only saw it a few times. Not sure if its there all the time because most of the time I just don't care and I just pay for them if I feel like it. I'm trying to get my twitter up and going to send the devs some of the ideas.

By Joel on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

A New update has just come out that Focuses on Prison life.

By Ornella on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

I forgot to answer one of the questions. For the business class trips when I tap on it, it just says you took a business trip to where ever you flew. I don't think it has anything to do with the profession you're working in but its a little more expensive than first-class. If someone doesn't want to go with you on a trip can you make them go with you? I think I saw that in the list of features for this past update but I don't know how to do it.

By Ornella on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

Wow, Bitizens, we've been locked up for three weeks working on this crazy big update for you. Who knew that prison life could be so in depth and complicated? Hopefully you didn't. We certainly didn't, but we do now. And honestly, we're ready to move on to a brighter facet of life on the next update. But this update is a riot, so enjoy it and hit us up on our socials to let us know what you think about our clink!

Here's the full list of new things in this update:

• Prison life -- everything you can imagine that happens in the slammer including gangs, interacting with other prisoners, bribing the guards, conjugal visits, crying, care packages, an infirmary, letters home, working out in the yard, parole boards, surly wardens, prison jobs, and more!
• A whole new prison riot mini-game
• New prison escape puzzles
• Family heirlooms -- collect a new one each day!
• Job interview questions
• More cost-of-living considerations by country (including full-time salaries)
• Much more textual content
• More new scenarios
• A ton of bugs squashed and grammar/typo fixes (keep reporting them!)

By DMNagel on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

Like I said before, more mini games means more inaccessibility. I'm almost afraid to go check. Guess I'll just have to rely on the word of others.

By Ornella on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

You will definetly love this update. I just played a speed game and prison was wonderful. There are more things to do. The only thing I think is inaccessible is the earloom. I can't find a way to drag the flashlight. I like that there are more activities. Dm you should try it. I didn't get conjugal visits because I didn't have a girlfriend. And I attacked someone in the prison yard. Lol. Thank god there's an infirmry. And my job was a baker and the pay was $4 a day and I was offered meth and the instant I took it I died. Oh and I forgot before I wrote a letter to my mom but she never wrote back. And I tried to bribe someone for my safety but it didn't work.

By Ornella on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

When I turned 18 I tried to steal a car and didn't succeed so spent 2 years in prison. While there I wrote a letter to my sister and got a reply. The reply didn't show in the text. Not sure if its supposed to be that way but it just said she replied back. My job there was a braille book maker with the pay of $3. Lol. When I got out I had $700. My father yelled at me for not having a job so I murdered him. I did a drive by. My sentence said that I am to be electrocuted on the 30th year I think. But I was in a small prison and I tried to escape and fought with someone in the yard then I was sent to maximum security prison. Before the prison riot was accessible but now it isn't. it says to pick the prisoners to do the riot 0 of 10 but I can't find a way to do that. I joined a prison gang but couldn't do anything much will have to explore more on that. When I aged up someone offered me drugs I took it. I didn't die from it but I did get electrocuted. Lol what a life. I died at age 30. My mom didn't attend my funeral.

By X2 on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

Omg I saw the new update this morning. I didn’t read it, it just said I had a new update. And finally! Before prison life was really boring. I’m definitely going to lead a criminal life for sure for my next character lol. And I would’ve thought first class is more expensive than business, but I guess not. And of course ornella, you’re always leading a crazy but extremely funny life lol. Can’t wait to try my hand at it, let’s see what trouble I can get into this time lol.

By Joel on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

They added the death penalty so be careful with the crimes you commit.

By Sabrina on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

I guess that when someone's child becomes a murderer and they kill your husband it is very likely that the mother won't atend the funeral.
Anyway, going to live a criminal life! I hope I get elecricuted. I will start by murdering my ex because she cheated on me. How dare she.
I broke up with her though. She'd better watch out!!!!!

By Ornella on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

I did tweat them about the inaccessible mini games but I saw that someone tweated them about the airloom so they said in the future they will think of a way to make it accessible. Sometime again I will send them a suggestion and I encourage you all to do the same because they are listening. You could tweat them from within the bitlife app so that's good. And yeah my lives are crazy lol. Wonder how to get the care packages from prison.

By Sabrina on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

Aparently I am aweful at murders because I got caught while trying to kill my best friend right after my last post.
I will live that life again. I want to get electricuted!

By Sabrina on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

I don't use twitter but if I did I would but I have an account that I haven't been on since ages.

By Ornella on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

If you're facing murder charges there's a possibility that you will be although you don't hear any kind of sound only the usual organ death sound. For the earloom its something that family members have and you could get the value of it and I'm not sure if you could sell it since that's inaccessible right now. I was just watching a review on youtube. Prison is definetly fun. And if you write a letter to someone there will be a pop up saying that your mom or whoever you wrote to sent something for you and you could choose what you want to do.

By X2 on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

I’m going to go into savage mode and cause as much trouble as possible lol. And I didn’t know you can tweak them from the app, I’ll have to check it out, I have a Twitter account. And has anyone killed a family member? A while back, when I wanted to murder someone, I think it gave me an option like my brother or my mother. I don’t know if that’s possible since I only lead one criminal life. But correct me if I’m wrong. And what kinds of death penalties do they have, like death by needle, someone said the electric chair, etc. And does it vary by country? With the new prison update, this should be fun when I go to Turkish prison lol.

By Ornella on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

So far I've only gotten the electric chair because I murdered my dad for not wanting to pay my university. Lol. Not sure of other penalties. Guess will have to do some more murdering.

By X2 on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

So there is the option to kill a family member? Since you killed your dad. Lol guess will have to do some more murdering, that made my day lol, thanks. If you go to jail while being famous, do you lose your fame? Or not. I tried to go to jail while being famous, but I kept getting away with stuff lol.

By Ornella on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

Looks like I was wrong when I didn't get a ribbon or achievement for the police officer because there isn't any. I'm glad I did get the job though. I was going to do crime but when I got that job I said no. I just chose a random thing to study in university. I chose mathematics. When I was done I wanted to kill my parents for not paying my tuition again. Lol. I checked the job list and I saw patrolman. I took it and kept getting promoted. When they forced me to retire you know what that meant. Straight to jail. I tried to club my x husband for harassing me all the time but he called the cops on me. I didn't have enough money to get out but I did have enough to appeal and got out. I spent over 300k on that. When I went back to the crime I didn't see my x on the list so I didn't bother with murdering again and I just aged up and died. Lol what a life. But I must say though that simple things are so expensive in Italy. I migrated from England to go there to do a crime to get deported but like I said it took another turn.

By Tiffany J. Kim on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

Well, after some assistance from AIRA and a bit of perseverance, I was able to get a family heirloom, although not a very valuable one! You will need to disable VO if you are using it since it won't allow you to find and drag your flashlight. The flashlight is located about an inch or so from the bottom of the screen, in the center, so approximately above where the home button would be. There is a square (the attic) that covers the bottom third of the screen. Once your finger hits the flashlight, you will hear a click. Don't release your finger, as you are now in possession of the flashlight. Use your finger to move around the attic (I'm assuming sighted people may have the benefit of seeing the objects they come across). Once you find something, you will hear a cash register ding, and you will then be able to enable VO and find out what you got. I found an umbrella which was valued at $15. Hopefully subsequent searches will turn up more valuable items! Happy hunting.

By Joel on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

1951 Radio. The average value for this very rare item is $260.

By Ornella on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

Do I have to wait for the pop up to tell me to drag the flashlight? or do I have to turn vo off in the main menu and then look for it? I saw a tab that says heirloom but its outside the game. When I double tap on it nothing happens.

By Joel on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

Open the game and you should get the popup

By Ornella on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

Thanks and how many times do you have to go to jail to get the jailbird ribbon. This life I'm playing now I'm in jail twice so far for stealing cars. My first sentence I got 2 years and now 5. I got stuff from my family when I write to them like a towel and a shampoo.

By X2 on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

I have the jailbird ribbon. I think you have to go to jail A few times. Finish your sentence, and once you get out commit more crimes. Try to go to jail as much as possible, if you get sentenced to life, do drugs, smuggling, and as much as you can to become a full on criminal.
Hth

By Ornella on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

I kept stealing cars and going to jail and for the last sentence I murdered my girlfriend because she cheated on me and didn't want to come down to the prison for a conjugal visit. Lol. As soon as I got out I strangled her to death and was sentenced to die on my 43rd birthday. When that time reach my time was extended to 2 years. Up until the murder my family was very nice to me. They sent stuff and sometimes it would get convascated. none of them came to my funeral. When the game ended I found an earloom. It was a sockerball worth $1000. When next I play I want to go to jail with a million dollars. Want to see how I get treated by the guards when I try to bribe.

By X2 on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

Has anyone gotten the two mystery ribbons? Or one of them? And if so, what are they.

By Ornella on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

Lol I guess the 2 mystry ribbons are a mystry to us. Haven't gotten them.

By Joel on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

I think the developers fix the heirlooms. Today when I open the app I got one automatically.

By Laura on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

In order to get one of the ribbons, you need to give up and end your life in your first year.

By Sabrina on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

Okay, I murdered my girlfriend because she was cheating on me. I got away with that. Then my brother gave fe a hard time axd I tried to murder him but he survived and I ended up in prkison. That is so cool. Just got a few years and then I somehow died there. No one came to my funeral. Of course not my brother. No one replied either. Meh, I was an adorable daughter and a wonderful sister. How can they reject me? Lol Yeah, they have fixed it. I got valêable china.

By Moopie Curran on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

In reply to by Ornella

Hi,
My character wound up being a famous magician, fathering 12 children, I was trying to get him put in jail for murder, would you believe he got away with murdering 9 people? He never did go to prison, he ended up being killed after trying to kill his son for not appreciating his college tuition. He paid for his son's college tuition, but the son's appreciation was only one percent, so I guess he snapped and started murdering people by way of drive-by shooting, until he finally met his match with his own son. A couple of times, the cops were called when he murdered people, but he hired the best lawyers, and they got him off, I wonder if it's because of his fame?

By Sabrina on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

I have no father but my mom was very ungrateful because I gave her a fruit cake and she argued with me and that was fine, I argued back to her. The next year I gave her something else and I cannot remember what it was. She accepted it. I was about seven. I died two years later and she would not go on my funeral. Thinking she is a bit bitter. :-)

By Joel on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

I gave my mom a copy of Minecraft and her appreciation was 5%.

By Ornella on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

Wow what crazy lives we all live. Lol. I have to wait a little under 24 hours to get another heirloom. Someone said they got paint which was worth $38.

By Sabrina on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

You know how you can do custom people?
I started dating... wait for it...
I proposed to her and well, she said yes. Then I wanted her to sign a prenupcial agreement because I had three million and she refused all the time and after that she broke up.
And I decided to kill her. Don't mess with me.
In an hour or so I will have a treasure. Really nice. I got the china one.

By Sabrina on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

I will die by lethal injection. I first killed my fioncé and got away with that. I killed mom and they gave me a death sentence. Loving prison life though. It will be fun to see if my father and children will come to my funeral.

By X2 on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 - 20:11

Sorry for the weird subject, I didn’t know what to put lol.
@joel, I think they did, I got and heirloom, a Debbie does Dallas film reel, it’s worth 2.2 thousand dollars, I don’t know what that is but to me it sounds like a porno lol, I don’t know why it does . And I also got prayer beads worth eight dollars. And if you look at the update, it says, that they fixed bugs, so I’m assuming one of these bugs was the heirloom issue.
@laura, what do you mean by giving up the first year?
@sabrina, omg you’re violent but funny lol. And you’re right, I wouldn’t want to mess with you in BitLife lol, but it would be fun if they made it where we can visit and interact with other players. I’d mess with you lol even though you would probably end up killing me, nonetheless, it would still be fun. And since you were talking about giving funny gifts to your mom, I gave my mom a used vibrator and a dead flower lol. She attacked me and yelled at me but before I could kill her I got caught stealing a car lol.
@ornella, I finally got the midnight express achievement. I customized my life to live in Turkey. Right now I’m serving nine years for breaking into someone’s house, even though I know the burglary option isn’t accessible, it was still fun to at least try. Once I get out, I’m gonna kill my brother lol, since he attacked me with a switch blade when we were in high school. I feel bad for making my character go to jail, I like my turkey guy lol, he has high smarts and looks, which I look for in a character. But oh well, it’s for the achievement right? Lol
And has anyone joined a gang? I have been trying, but I keep getting rejected and beat up, so I started crying lol, since the option is available.
