it was worth itit deserved it The phrase "it was worth it" is a common expression used to indicate that the effort, time, or cost of something was justified by the outcome or result. It suggests that the benefits or rewards of an experience, action, or decision outweighed the challenges or sacrifices involved.

For example, a business owner who has just taken a significant financial risk might say, "It was worth it in the end. We've seen a significant increase in revenue." Overall, the phrase "it was worth it" suggests that the rewards or benefits of an experience, action, or decision outweighed the challenges or sacrifices involved.
