"A lot has happened in my life, the fact that I am a proud owner of a dairy cow in my homestead makes the biggest difference in my daily life. I settled in purchasing it because I had been longing to own it for quite some time and I am assured of accomplishing most of my goals through it. First very soon I will be getting plenty of liters of milk which I will be selling to the local market and neighbors and generate an income. I will save the money for my children's further studies since some are still young currently. Also with the remaining few little will be for my family's consumption which will make them healthier since it will serve as a surplus to their daily meals. Therefore through this investment, I am optimistic it will transform my future positively."
