What did you spend your third transfer on?
When I received my third transfer, I bought the building materials I did not manage to purchase using the second transfer. With these, I managed to build a more spacious house and vacate the squeezed one. Currently I stay in a three roomed house. I also paid school fees for my orphaned granddaughter, who is in secondary school. For her to stay in school, I used to take loans from our table banking groups, I am happy this did not happen this time around.
