There are probably about 30 million. I don’t know, that’s just my estimate.

This is called a Fermi Problem, and you should know how to answer them because you might get asked something similar in a job interview one day.

Plus learning how to do this makes you smarter, and you want to be smarter, right?? RIGHT?!?!

This is very hard to answer!.. Do you factor in anyone who has ever thrown a yoyo?

I wonder what the churn rate is. That is, how many new players join our ranks each day (deciding to nominally stick with it after their first day’s experience throwing), and how many leave (without any intention of returning) each day. Is the hobby experiencing a net gain, or a net loss each week/month/year?

Start at the beginning of the sentence. And then read it all the way to the end.
