In your migration file, e.g.

t.decimal :bounties, :precision => 8, :scale => 2, :default => 0

OR set a callback

before_create :set_admin

def set_admin
  self.role = "admin"
end

Hi one way is in migration file set default value by providing default hash and then migrate. or you can override new methods or if you want to create one admin user for application you can put into seed data.
