ROI is shorthand for Return On Investment. 💸

Ya know, it's what all the peeps in finance talkin' about when they wanna flex their gains from sketchy investments. 🤞

More money, more problems, but we'll take it! 🤑

We throw our cash down, hope to scoop it up again later with some friends (aka profits), whether we're tradin' low-key currencies or buyin' low, sellin' high. 📈👀

How much we win (or lose, rip) is our scorecard that you can either brag about or cry over. 📉💔

Percentage stats keep it 100 and serve as the scoreboard for your hustle, helping you figure out if you're bossin' up or need to get your game right. 🎯🤔

This number tells you if your moves are cash money or a total flop. 💸😅

Typically, ROI flexes as a percentage (like 25% ROI), but you'll also see it in ratio form (like 0.25 ROI). 📊🔥

To figure out your ROI creds, here's your cheat code:

ROI = (NEW VALUE – WHAT YOU SPENT) / WHAT YOU SPENT 💡

So let's say I threw down $20,000 for 1 bitcoin (BTC) and now it's sellin' for $65K, here's my ROI calculation: 👀💰

ROI = ($65,000 – $20,000) / $20,000 ➡️🚀

ROI = ($45,000) / $20,000 🤯

ROI = 2.25 😮‍💨

ROI as a % = 2.25 x 100 = 225% 🎉

ROI on that bitcoin (BTC) hit a wild 225%. 🙌💥

And yeah, ROI can take an L too. 😬👉
