As you progress through BitLife, you’re going to need money to really get things done. Like in real life, things are expensive in BitLife. One of the easiest and most lucrative ways to get easy cash in BitLife is to rob a train which can net you millions of dollars.
Robbing a train
To rob a train in BitLife, you first need to be age 18 or older and have unlocked all Crimes. Obviously, you can’t be preoccupied as well such as in prison. From the main screen choose Activities then Crime and then Train Robbery which should be at the bottom.
Next, you will see several different randomly generated train line names to choose from. For example, my choices were Magnitude Express, Northern Express, and Western Condor Line. None of these choices matter.
What time should you rob the train?
This is what matters most. You need to pick the correct time to rob the train that coordinates with what time it is on your phone. The key is to not be too early, or too late, but right at the exact time. If you pick the time that coordinates with the time on your phone, you will successfully pull off the train robbery. If you are too early or too late, you will fail the robbery.
Here are all the times your phone time needs to be at in order to pull off the train robbery:
- Sunrise — 6am
- High Noon — 12pm
- 4:20pm — 4:20pm
- Sunset — 6pm
- Midnight — 12am
Also, you don’t want to try to manipulate the time on your phone to make it the proper time. BitLife has cheat detection enabled and it will automatically cause you to fail and your character to be killed.
As you can see, you can do this train robbery successfully five times per day, netting between $5 million and $50 million each time you do so. As long as you keep an eye on the time, you can make use of this method to get hundreds of millions of dollars to really get stuff done in BitLife.
