Mafia Wars Cheats by mastering Return on Investment (ROI)

by Richard MW Hijinx

One of the biggest aspects of Cheat in Mafia Wars is rapid wealth building. 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 build wealth FAST you will HAVE to consider ROI during your acquisition of properties. Some properties are cheaper to purchase, but don’t necessarily provide much bang for the buck. Throughout the game the best return on investment is simply the Mafia Mikes providing about 4 times the return as the next best property when taken dollar for dollar.

In order to figure out your ROI in Mafia Wars you will have to get some information. You will have to know the cost of the land needed to build a property. You will need to know the cost to build the property. Finally, you will need to know how much money that property will be generating. Let’s look at an example, and yes I’m going to use Mafia Mikes.

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

Now we get to our magic number, Return on Investment (ROI), as follows.

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.

Now that you know how to calculate and utilize the ROI you can begin making just a little bit more cash to fund your Mafia Wars activities.

How to Avoid Spyware

by Doug Allen

Spyware is a form of malware that gets into your computer and does everything from sending your internet browser to random home pages to stealing your personal identity. As such, it is crucial that you take preventive steps to keep spyware from getting into your operating system and eliminating it if it has already gotten inside.

Making sure that you don’t get any spyware in the future and getting rid of any you have now is done by getting a spyware removal program. You can get them for free from trusted sources such as Ad-Aware by Lavasoft. You can also buy them for around $50. When looking for a free solution, watch out for online advertisements offering spyware software as they may be spyware in disguise.

Yes, you’re going to need software if you don’t want spyware. But there are also things that you should do by yourself to prevent it…

Keep you operating system (OS) and browser on the newest version by updating them. Also, you may want to ditch Internet Explorer as it is the most used web browser and, as such, the most targeted for spyware.

You’re going to want to avoid P2P file sharing networks because some automatically place spyware on your computer and you have a chance of getting spyware if you download something from one of these file sharing programs.

Make sure to only upload files from sites that are trusted. Music and movie downloads are well known for having spyware, especially if it is for free.

The settings on your internet security should be at the medium level, if not higher. You can adjust these settings by going to the tools section of your internetbrowser.

To make sure that someone can’t get remote access to your computer, you’re going to want a firewall installed.

Do not install a free toolbar from an online company, which you’ve never heard of before. The toolbar may very well be spyware in disguise. It is best to download toolbars from trusted companies, such as Google.

A lot of people say that you should read the license agreements as well as the privacy statements when trying to get rid of spyware. Rather than actually spending time reading this material, just be sure to only download from places that you trust.
