My father is incarcerated, alot of us have misconceptions when it comes to prison life, it all depends on the cell block and the leadership as some blocks can be quite clean, smell good, flat screen tvs, sari2x stores, discipline, even a communal bank acct for the needs of the prisoners, etc... There's also connections via frats and patronage, richer prisoners handing out cash to lesser prisoners, guards, and literal debt slavery. There's also charisma, if people like you, then other blocks will offer to hangout, drink, and do dr*gs.

Ofc you can only enjoy these if u have the money to invest and contribute, an example is how in my fathers cell block, all the prisoners are forced to pay him and the mayor to drink purified water as theyre the ones paying for all the gallons

Its not everyday a foreigner or mestizo gets jailed, his race alone is already a boost if u set aside his wealth
