"My additional goal in life that I didn't have before receiving the transfer is to open a second hand clothes business. With this, I will have a diversified source of income. I will majorly be using the income generated from this business to cater for my children's education and save some money to use in case of an emergency while the income generated from the motorcycle business will cater for our daily needs. By doing so, my family will never lack some basic needs they need for themselves."

"I spent a good amount from my most recent transfer to repay a debt which I had taken to start a business. I had decided to take a loan and use the money open a business since depending on casual work proved to be unfruitful since a day would sometimes end without me getting anything to do. Since I had been mostly using the profits I used to get from my business to repay the loan I had, I used the remaining amount in restocking my business by buying some new items to sell. This was the only way I had to avoid my business from collapsing since I had not added any stock since the time I opened it."
