Nice gist, well written, wish I could write like you

Well written article.

Overall, it shows that investing in yourself is the best investment ever

Yeah, it does in a way....

Squid game is a south korean survival drama TV series distributed by netflix that was released on the 17th of September, 2021. This series as now grown to become the most viewed TV series in netflix's history. As captivating and horror the movie was, there are some money lessons that can be learnt from the movie which I'll like to share.

1. Money does not care.
All of the contestants in the squid Game came there for the money. Their lives in the outside world as put them in a messed up situation such that they were willing to trade their lives for money. This is why the concept of financial education and how to live a financially free life is being thought and people are being encouraged to find ways to make their money work for them rather than work for money. Money doesn't care about your situation or circumstances in life many have lost their loved ones because they don't have money to pay hospital bills

2.Currency devaluation doesn't necessarily mean underdevelopment.
The TV series actually made us realise just how devalued the south korean won is compared to dollar. Official rates today shows that 1USD is equal to 1182.79 won however, the international monetary fund (IMF) in 2020 ranked south Korea as the 10th highest ranked country in nominal GDP in the world. This is because currency devaluation do have some advantages for a self-reliant country like south Korea that can produce most of its needs domestically. Their devalued currency makes it cheaper for foreigners to buy their locally made goods but makes it expensive for its citizens to buy foreign goods thereby encouraging exportation and discouraging importation. This and other factors have helped south Korea cope and amass as a country with one of the best economy in the world.

3. Money doesn't buy Happiness.
In the last episode of the series, oh il-nam (the old man that looks like buhari ) made a shocking reveal that he created the game long ago in the 1980's alongside some his rich friends when they realised they couldn't find happiness in life despite all their riches. This brings to light a concept in psychology known as hedonic adaptation. As we make more money overtime in life, we get used to that change in our life and therefore we adapts such that buying the latest shoes, clothes, cars or houses doesn't give us as much joy. However, we still continue to strive for more money thinking it will make us happy and due to the competitive and comparative nature of man to maintain the same standard of living as our peers. These was the case of the host and 'VIPs' of the squid game who turned themselves into blood sacking monsters in an attempt to buy happiness. Now, don't get me wrong, making money is very important but finding a purpose or meaning in what we do is what actually makes us happy.

Seoung Gi-hon, The winner of the game went home with a prize of 45.6 billion won which is around 38million dollars, so I have a question. Will you play squid game for 38million Dollars?

please, who knows where I can download or stream yesterday's match
thanks

Dear cules,
If Roma, Liverpool and Valencia@ CDR was not enough reason for this barça board to sack Valverde, then just forget it, no amount of league loss is enough..!!! let's just hope for the best this season till his contract runs out...

We're getting too obsessed with this champions league thing, let's calm down and celebrate what we've won this far

nawa o! since I updated my phone on Sunday, I just noticed that my phone key board has been very slow to react, it's so frustrating ehn...

lordharrick:
Up to date...

So, does it support glo 4g now?

saint2ace:
You might have 2 or 3 more updates after these. But hopefully one should unlock band 28. Like lexusgs430 said, keep us updated.

Okay Sir, Thanks

Lexusgs430:
In china?.....

Lolz, dem suppose get Nigerian or English line na?

Lexusgs430:
Update and let's see if it unhibernates band 28..........

Okay, Thanks

Please, do you know the umidigi costumer care line?

Lexusgs430:
About- wireless update.....

Okay, about the wireless update, I saw this

Lexusgs430:
Send picture of band information...... Did you buy it new or used?

Newer versions came with band 28 out of the box... We hear some people got OTA updates to unhibernate band 28.

Have you checked for wireless updates?.....

I bought it brand new from jumia o! But no band 28 even on the carton and I don't know where to check for OTA.

Good afternoon, I'm so happy to find out that there's actually a umidigi thread on nairaland. I use the umidigi a3 pro which I bought about a month ago and I've been enjoying it. *I heard that it's possible to get the glo 4g band on it even though it doesn't originally exist in the phone. Please, how can I get this as I normally use glo as my preferred network and 3g isn't so favorable.

Thanks

I have received my cash reward, thanks to the organisers of this programme.

xfire:
I move over to the 2nd runner up (3rd best). He is a 500 level Medicine student of UNIBEN. He is a living example of those who believe that perseverance pays, as he participated in the previous edition although he didn’t emerge as a winner after the 3rd stage test. Yet he demonstrated the spirit of sportsmanship.

He scored 66.7% and 83.3% in the first and second test respectively, with an average score of 75.0%

He loves watching football and making new friends. The 3rd best student for this edition is no one else but…
…

I appreciate every one of your support and effort you placed in the success of this programme.

When I missed out in d awards last year, I was very disappointed because despite my good scores in the 1st and 2nd test, My phone just decided to give me issues, and I couldn't write the 3rd test well but as the Bible says that "All things work together for good", I'm happy that I've been able to achieve something in this edition so, I encourage anyone for u who missed out to not be depressed but keep working hard, keep putting more efforts and I'll see u @ work.

Finally, I wanna thank God Almighty, the Master Planner for how he has help me thus far and I also want to dedicate this victory to every member of the University Of Benin Medical Students Association (UBEMSA), Ex- mays around the world and also my fellow Barcelona fans...

Graçias

OlumhideGold:
Textbooks
I would soon write about them
But note that it varies from School to school
But for mine.
Anatomy
Clinically Oriented Anatomy by Keith Moore
BD chaurasia Human Anatomy
Last Anatomy
And if I might include Grays Anatomy

Physiology is mainly Sembulligam Physiology but I'll talk about those later.

BCH.
Vasudevan BCH
pakanja Naik BCH
But I've never found the hard copy of the pakanja, we only have the soft copy over here but nevertheless, it's a very amazing book

I would write later about my review of these books

don't u guys use Guyton & Hall textbook of physiology?

Yet, six years in d university, I'm still sweating it out to get an MBBS degree.

Good morning, I'm just seeing this, I wasn't online yesterday. Can I still make corrections?

ok

the link is not going through na

homesteady:
Remember Seri that we were all talking about here, even Xavi said he has Barcelona DNA, Shebi we almost signed him, but his club did some last minute magumagu. The guy has joined fvcking Fulham.

chai!! May God save us from our 'village people'.
Is Fulham even in premier league top flight sef?

homesteady:
Modric for me to. The major reason why Mbappe is in contention for the award is because of that Argentina match. Argentina just opened their Nyash for him and he brutally raped them. Aside that, he hasn't been as consistent as Modric.

what's this one saying now?

its been a while, missed this thread.

I just hope Arthur becomes a great midfielder for barca

I just need us to sign one more world class midfielder and then we'll be ready for the season.

FELLOW CULES, TODAY IS MY BIRTHDAY BABY!!!!!!

CampNouPolice:
Ibime, I can see you viewing this thread.

I got several reports that you are always casting aspersions upon El Cerebro El Ilusionista, El Caballero Pálido - Don Andrés Iniesta!!

How does it feel that it was his surreal, magical ability that led to Messi's goal? If it is not magic, why would a whole azpilicueta, Chelsea most trusted defender, be disgraced in such a manner?

Iniesta is coming with another double edged sword to give you hypertension during the 2nd leg!

Finally caught you.....

Barça were lucky men, Thank God.

Let's hope for the best @ nou camp
