![]() ![]() With enough investigation it could be ferreted out, but that isn’t very important for practical purposes. I don’t know the exact formula for this ROI. As of early September 2019 it is no longer a biometric input.) (Note: Until recently, waist circumference was an input to the calculator that caused ROI to be suppressed if it made for too low a waist-to-height ratio. The ROI is independent of monthly payment until that gets high enough for net gain to reach the flatline level. The ROI in the green region, including at minimum bets, is dependent on three biometric inputs to the calculator (sex, weight, and height) and the two bet definition elements of time and pounds pledged. So what defines the ROI in the slopes region and what defines the flatline level for net gain? If you go far enough out your net gain will start to drop $100 for every $100 additional invested-because you have idiotically slammed into the $10,000 prize limit. You should never bet so much that you are on the red line on the graph-you can get the same amount of new cash out of Healthy Wage by betting less money. It represents the “sucker bet” region of the graph. These are the horizontal line in the chart. Meanwhile, your ROI decreases with the additional dollars added. ![]() Beyond this point, net gain flatlines, and additional dollars put in only get pushed back to you when you win. However, this constant ROI with increasing investment lasts only to a certain point. If it’s 100%, you can double the additional dollars you put in, and if it’s 150% you can earn 3 to 2 on them in net gain terms, or 5 for 2 in prize terms.Īll of this is represented by the upward slopes in the chart above. Your net gain will increase by $75 and your prize by $175 (incremental gain plus incremental investment returned). If it’s 75%, for example, with every additional $100 you put in you will win that back plus another $75. The ROI will stay the same as you increase your investment. For each you see a rising slope (the constant-ROI region where the good bets are), and a flat line (where the net gain ceiling has been reached-these are sucker bets and should be avoided) If it is between 11% and 194.12%, you are in the regular formula of the calculator. When the prize screen comes up, check out the ROI. As you are required to enter investment on a monthly basis, use these values for convenience: To find out if you are in the “regular” formula, calculate your bet with a $101 to $150 total investment for the number of months you want and the number of pounds you want. Locating yourself within the regular formula I discuss this in detail in another post. In that formula get your bet nearly tripled, plus a flat bonus that is independent of bet size. The ROI there is better than 200% across the range of investments you should be betting in. The “triple-bonus” formula is for more severely obese players who are trying to lose substantial amounts of weight. The ROIs are between 11% and 194%-before boost enhancements, which are a (non-caloric) sweetener that you just take no matter what formula you are dealing with. The regular formula is generally in effect if you are clinically overweight or moderately obese (body mass index of 35 or less), and you are betting to lose only a few dozen pounds or so. (In the original version of this post I called it “supersize”-a nod to McDonalds-but triple-bonus is more descriptive so I’m going forward with that.) There is also a formula I am now calling the “triple-bonus” formula. This post describes what I call the “regular” formula. If ROI is slightly under 194.12%, consider adjusting your commitment in a way that drives the minimum bet ROI to >200%, shifting you into the better-paying supersize (or “triple-bonus) model.įor HealthyWagers, the Healthy Wage calculator has two distinct formulas for calculating net gain, return on investment (ROI) and the “prize.” One or the other in is effect for each bet you calculate. If ROI is under 194.12%, set a bet at minimum stakes or greater that simultaneously holds this ROI and doesn’t breach the net gain limit for the number of pounds you are pledging. TL DR version: First do a small bet calculation to determine return on investment. ![]()
