South Korean television series, “Squid Game” has been topping the chart on Netflix since its releases, which makes sets it on track to be one of the best-performing shows in Netflix history, according to Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos. The series has glinted the online buzz since its international premiere on September 17.

If you are wondering what the buzz is about for most people who haven’t seen the movie, the show is about hundreds of debtors who accepted a strange invitation to compete in a children’s game to win a tempting prize of 45.6 billion Korean won (approximately $38.6 million).

The movie, no doubt, was quite intriguing and equally imbued with suspense, anxiety, and dread. Nevertheless, there are financial lessons absorbed from this series, and they are as follows.


Avoid quick rich scheme (gambling)
It is no news that many people have become compulsive gamblers that they are willing to risk something they value in anticipation of getting something greater. This is one aspect that was seen in the movie as one of Squid Game’s main characters has a horse racing gambling addiction. Most contestants in the film went into gambling with the idea to get rich quickly with little to no effort. Squid Game reminds us that rich quick schemes do not exist. Personal wealth takes time to grow. Allow the process. Gambling can be detrimental to our lives, resulting to losses, depleted savings, accumulated debt, and sometimes leading one to lean on theft or fraud to support their addiction

Secure your financial information
Protecting your financial accounts should be your top priority. Remember, you worked so hard to earn that money. This protection ranges from the following: not disclosing your financial information to anyone over the phone, email or in-person; not clicking on suspicious links or downloading attachments and apps from unknown sources; not connecting to unsecured wifi and lastly avoid using important dates and personal phone numbers as password. Having watched Squid Game, you will notice a scene where a contestant stole his mother’s ATM card and entered his own daughter’s date of birth as the correct PIN. This scene is an important reminder to not trust anyone and to dearly protect all your financial accounts/information. It is imperative to get a PIN that makes it harder for anyone to steal your money. Create solid and separate passwords, and store them safely to protect yourself online from hackers


Pay off the burden called debt
Debt in itself is neither an enemy nor a burden. Debt or borrowing that leads to debt becomes an enemy when you put it to unproductive use or when you cannot regularly pay it off when due. This usually leads to the accumulation of more debt because the interest keeps skyrocketing. Paying off debt is one of the vital money lessons learnt from the movie. All the players in the game were facing financial challenges because of debt.

An example was one of the players that was a compulsive gambler who had won an enormous sum of money in betting. Instead of using that money to clear his debt, he decided to run away from his debtors. Assuming he was smart enough to pay off the debt he won, he wouldn’t be desirous of playing the game at first.

Prioritize health insurance
Health, they said, is wealth. It doesn’t matter if you are struggling to survive in life, it is crucial to take care of your health. That is why health insurance is essential. You might think you are healthy today, but a health or life insurance policy can help pay off expensive medical services when an emergency strikes. You probably ignored getting car insurance because you think you are a safe driver. Remember that you just one bad day away from the worst-case scenario. Consider protecting yourself financially with an insurance policy. This was seen in the movie when Seong Gi-hun’s mum was sick with diabetes. The doctor suggested that she stays back in the hospital for her to be appropriately taken care of. She had to leave the hospital, the reason being that they did not have insurance cover. This is because his son cancelled the insurance and spent the money extravagantly. This fight Seong Gi-hun had with his mum made him sad because he couldn’t help his mother get the medical help she needed. This is why insurance is critical, as it would have removed all that stress from him.

A penny saved is a penny earned, so spend wisely
Squid Game tells the story of people struggling with financial issues due to poor choices in life. Spending wisely means having the knowledge and confidence to make the most of your money. No matter how big or small your income is, not overspending is a critical habit to get into. If you’re spending wisely, you’ll find more opportunities to save and grow your finances instead.

Seek for financial support
In Squid Game, many characters live in denial about their financial situation or try to solve problems alone, only to dig themselves into a deeper hole. Most people don’t share their financial hardships before it’s too late. Asking for help may feel difficult, intimidating, and embarrassing, but you should know when and how to ask for help from the people around you if you need any support.

In conclusion, Squid Game showed us how your choices would ultimately determine your future, no matter how insignificant. So if you don’t want to be that desperate, consider changing your bad financial habits and start leading a healthy and debt-free financial life as early as now.

Waiting to be disected.

It was a sunny afternoon, I was just resting & having some random thoughts when some neighbours chased this animal into my compound. I rushed out to help, only to discover that the bush rat was stocked in the pile of blocks in the compound. We were able to apprehend it after carrying so many blocks. In order to regain lost energy, it was used for Pepper soup

A 17yrs old boy named Ebitari Ikiokimi killed a Dolphin at Ofoni-Toru fishing camp in Kolokuma Opokuma Local Government Area in Bayelsa This morning.

Ebitari Ikiokimi is a young Fisher who was born and brought up at the fishing camp. Mr Perez Ikiokimi the father of Ebitari has stayed in the fishing camp for over 30yrs,

who’s occupation is fishing. The young boy has learned a lot of fishing skills from his father. He has been thought how to use nets, hooks, traps and other fishing materials.

On Monday morning Ebitari used a vast woven fishing net with floaters owned by his father to trap the sea monster which he saw.

He went later in the evening to check, but noticed the net was no longer there. The manatee has escaped with the net, he tried to make some traces but all to no avail. He came back home and informed his father.

On Tuesday morning which was yesterday the father and son went back in search for the net. After spending hours in the river, lo and behold the monster fish was found struggling with the net.

So simple? Thank you though.

you are welcome

Don’t panic.
To avoid overwhelming healthcare workers, don’t go to the hospital UNLESS you have difficulty breathing or a very high (39 degrees Celsius) fever which is unmanaged by medications. Healthy adults with no previous complications and underlying diseases have bounced back with rest and home medications.

However, if you show any of the above signs, call the Nigerian Center for Disease Control on their toll-free numbers for more information on what to do next. This is because leaving your house to go to a hospital without proper protocol can result in more infections thus spreading the virus more.


If you have any pre-existing condition, you should talk to your healthcare provider on how they would like you to proceed if you get sick

Rest, rest, rest!
This is not the time to be outside. You should not leave your house even if you start to feel better because you may be infectious. Isolate at home for the next fourteen days and avoid contact with elderly people. Also, ask your family members to leave supplies outside and keep their distance from you. Better to be safe than sorry. It is also important that the rest of the family members stay quarantined for the next 14 days as they may also be infected.

Water, e no get enemy.
If you suspect that you are infected you want to be drinking a lot of water. Drink plenty of water because it plays a huge role in regulating body temperature along with transporting essential nutrients round the body. While staying hydrated can’t protect you against getting infected, it can help with recovery.

The virus causes nasty breathing problems. Think of something more uncomfortable than cold and catarrh. So, think of all your cold symptoms such as sniffling, headache, temperature, etc. Now is the time to stock up on paracetamol, wipes for cleaning your nose, some honey and lemon. All these help with relieving the symptoms that usually present with this illness. If you are experiencing high body temperature, take paracetamol over any form of “strong” painkiller because it is the safest for now.

While there is a lot of information on how to prevent getting Coronavirus, there is not a lot of help regarding what to do if you suspect that you are infected. If we are being honest, as Nigerians living in Nigeria, there’s only so much you can do to avoid getting infected because we lack the infrastructure to properly self-isolate. This means that we are bleeped.

First, the Coronavirus is not a death sentence if properly managed. That knowledge is the first step to beating this virus. This is because it helps you not to panic and to follow the instructions below.

Mine was when our entire SS3 class was give 2 weeks suspension 3weeks to our Weac exams. We were yet to complete our practical classes in Chemistry and Physics, So I had to join my friends in there school without registration, so as to cover up before Weac exams. Few teachers that knew I attended O.G.S started questioning, I just told them I registered my Weac in their school. They didn't even bother checking their records, because they won't believe a 16yrs old can just buy school uniform and start attending classes without proper registration. Mad ooo
