"I spent my third transfer on cementing and painting my 3 room house to make it look nicer since it looked bad and had cracked walls.I also bought 10 plastic seats for my house."

"I was for the idea of buying a land because the land we are in was under so much scrutiny with the family but when the money we had was not enough we thought of just settling in the village and renovate and add some rooms with our second and last transfer, in this case we bought cement to plaster the floor steel windows and steel doors."

"I used a portion of my third transfer to buy sand which I am planning to use to plaster my house which I built with the second transfer in order for me live in a beautiful house like other people. I used a portion to pay school fees for my child who had been sent home for school fees, I bought a cow since I did not have livestock in my compound. The remaining amount, I spent on a sack of maize for consumption and other household utensils which I did not have."

"I used my third transfer to start an outside catering business which has enabled us to buy building materials and school fees for my children."

"I dint have a house before I used to live in a small house which I cannot consider as a house we just used it to sleep so I used my last transfer to build a house and the rest I used to buy things in the house including mattress, bed and seats,I bought this thing for the obvious reason that I had never acquired any of this things before."

"I spent my third transfer on booking for milk for my children (9,000 KES) which I use to make white tea for my children because nutrition is very important. I also bought a heifer (18,000 KES) which will provide milk that will support me in educating our children.In addition I bought 2 Shavers(7,000 KES) which I use to do some side hustle at home."

"I spent my third transfer on buying building materials that I used on constructing a house for my son. I was tired of him going to sleep in neighbor's houses making him acquire some characters that were not welcoming as I could not monitor his movements. The remaining amount I spent on starting a business. I acquired a fridge from the coca cola company where I stock drinks and sell to customers. I used to idle given that I did not have anything meaningful to do with myself. Thank you GiveDirectly and I wish that one day you find time and walk around with the photos you took initially and compare with the current situation. You will notice the difference."

"I spent my third transfer on the acquisition of cows which formerly I did not have. The remaining part of the money I use in the construction of a new house which I had really longed for, being a luo man one is required to build his own homestead separate from his fathers compound. Immediately I got the third transfer I decided to build a house of my own."

"I spent a portion of my third transfer on livestock, that was, 2 oxen for ploughing and a donkey for fetching water. I lived in a very dry region where streams were a bit far from residential homes. This therefore called for long journeys in search for this precious resource. Having a donkey to aid in this was the best decision ever. Other than those, I paid school fee for my children in school."
