Do people agree that most non-gamblers would know what roi was ? I wouldn't think so.


Agreed, pretty sure i have used the term round non poker people and they have no idea.

Currently sitting eating organic grapes, organic can gtfo, taste no different to any normal grapes I've ever had. I only got them as they where 1/2 price so where same price as normal ones. I've been hungry allday today, had a pork dinner with all the trimmings, then few hours later had king prawns in garlic and herbs with Nando's hot sauce and this Thai sweet chilli sauce that was really nice, couple hours later had some Frosties and now onto the grapes, oh and had some grated cheese as well, obv bought it grated, nice mix for the day imo.

I'd say 80% of people I know will know what ROI is, but all of my friends went to uni, so might be why? pretty common term i thought!

Just been speaking to the other housemate that moved in on Friday, seems proper sound, got pretty sick job by the sounds of it, forget the term he used now but he's an engineer and travels all over testing rigs and soil and stuff, explained that well, haha.

Such a com thing happened whilst chatting to him, when he was saying what he does I was thinking bet he makes a shitload, ofc though I didn't ask, I then say what I do, first response was, do you make much...

 

So wanted to ask how much he made after that, but didn't.

lol. Would agree not many people generally knows what it means, but thankfully its an easy thing to explain. Would be easy to misdirect as well just mention the singular tournaments that you win and mention how when you win one of the $15's 180 mans your ROI is 5200%, then mention an unrelatable fact in that in business investments in general anything under 10% ROI is considered good  Cheesy
