noun | fawr·eks
Forex is like the final boss of degenerate gambling - it's the global market for exchanging fiat currencies, and it's where dreams go to die. It's like playing roulette, but instead of betting on red or black, you're betting on the strength of the Zimbabwean dollar against the Venezuelan bolivar.
Example
"I tried my hand at forex trading because I heard you could make mad gains with leverage. Ended up blowing my account in a week and now I'm selling feet pics on OnlyFans to pay the bills. Turns out, 1000x leverage is not a sustainable investment strategy, who knew?"
"Forex is where the real Chads play - if you can make it in the currency markets, you can make it anywhere. It's like the Wall Street of the internet, except instead of coked-up brokers in suits, it's sleep-deprived teenagers in their parents' basements."
