Mafia Wars Cheats by mastering Return on Investment (ROI)

By Richard MW Hijinx

One large part of Cheat in Mafia Wars is rapid accumulation of money. Money is a huge factor of the game when you first start playing, but this is easily overcome with sound financial tactics and planning. To "cheat" in mafia wars and make money FAST you will HAVE to consider ROI as part of your decision process when buying properties. Some properties are cheaper to purchase, but don't always provide much bang for the buck. Throughout the Mafia Wars game the best return on investment is simply the Mafia Mikes providing about 4 times the ROI as the next best investment property.

When you decide to figure out your ROI in Mafia Wars you will have to gather some information. You will need to know the cost of the land needed to build a property. You will need to know the cost to build the property. Lastly, you will have to know how much revenue that property generates. Let's go through an example using the infamous Mafia Mikes.

Mafia Mikes require two components: an abandoned lot and then construction. The property pays out $12,000 per hour. Construction costs are $969,760. An abandoned lot right now costs me $4,750. The total cost for one Mafia Mikes then is $974,510.

Now that we have all the information we need, we can begin our ROI calculation.

To calculate ROI you divide your total costs by your hourly earnings. In this case I divide $974,510 by $12,000/hr to come up with a Return on Investment (ROI) of 81.209 hours. This means the property will pay for itself after 81.209 hours. To put this in perspective for you I have exactly 1,266 Mafia Mikes. My next best property has an ROI of 256.5 hours, and I only own 10 of them. So, make this calculation for each property type and TRY to get the ones that pay for themselves the quickest.

Hopefully it is apparent that the most glamorous properties are not always the best. Take some time to think about what you are doing and the Mafia Wars cash will flow quite nicely.
