received a $420 second payment.
"I used to work on pressure because I always had to deliver cash from the coffee sales to my employer at the end of each day however all that changed when i got the transfers. I invested my own capital and i now work at my own pace without pressure from anyone because i am my boss. That's the biggest difference in my daily life."
