  1. I know this is a old video, but when I seen this vid it reminds me of the 6 months I spent in the County jail. Soups was the main money. That and Coffee. A 4ounce bag was $7 and a pack of soup was $1 if you had any of the two you could get anything.

  2. I've had to turn the sound up on my device for the last two months to hear your videos clearly. Your sound is fkd.

  3. 24×7 is like 100…… 2×7 is 14 just put a 0 at the end and thats 140 alone, not even adding the 4×7 witch is 28. so 168 is the answer. Its the easy way to get an answer like this. if you break the numbers down. I know your not too good at math. me either thats why i do it like this. hope it helps…….

  4. 10:26 – Well, Joe. At least you won't have to break 'em up for your next prison log. That just sounds wrong, but I'm gonna keep it in because I think Ol' Joe would appreciate it.

  5. I dont know about up north but i did some time in Florida's brokest jail. Not one of the brokest, the brokest! In that crap shack you could get the pouches you mentioned but they were worth a handjob in trade! Needless to say at that exchange rate ramen noodles were the main currency. One noodle pack was worth at least one tray. Best believe at every meal you heard "soup for a tray" like clockwork.

  6. I mean Joe, I know seven days being locked up doesn't seem like much, but you have to view this through the eyes of someone who has never had to deal with the system before. For them, six days is a nightmare.

  7. You forgot a pretty important aspect to using Ramen soups as cash… Theres two kinds of trading in prison. Trading through the rec yard and trading within your housing unit. Ramen soups are one of the most popular units of trade when trading within your housing unit…. That is fact.

  8. Some things about your prison stories reminds me of being in the military the only difference is as long as it isn't illegal you can have any amount you want and move/trade/sell it as you please and often actual money is the preffered method of payment, for instance the last time I was overseas for whatever reason we could not buy tobacco on base and going off base to purchase tobacco wasn't always an option depending on your work schedule for instance I was working 12+ hours a day 6 days a week so getting off base to buy cigarettes wasn't an option people that could go off base regularly would buy cartons of cigarettes for around $4 a pack and then sell it on base for $8-$10 a pack. When I was leaving someone in my unit brought all the deployers Chick-Fil-A and everyone got a couple Chick-Fil-A sauce packets to go with their sandwich, when I got out there some people were so desperate for the taste of American fast food that I was able to trade my 2 packets of Chick-Fil-A sauce for a pack of smokes. Another time for whatever reason there was no hot sauce anywhere on base and my in laws sent me like 10 bottles of tobasco, I kept one for personal use and the other 9 got traded for things that weren't easy to get, tobacco, hot commodities at the BX that always sold put quickly and took forever to restock like ramen noodles. I traded a bottle of tobasco to one guy who turned around and traded it to his supervisor for a day off.

    When you're cut off from normal society anything that can be considered a luxury has value to someone.

  9. The prison I was in ramen was a big part of currency along with coffee for most smaller items but stamps were definitely used for big ticket items.
