What did you spend your third transfer on?
I spent the larger part of my third transfer on paying school fees 40,000 KES for two children who are in high school and now I am relieved since the lump-sum school fees arrears that I had have been reduced to a large extent.I also bought two bags of maize for my family's consumption.

What did you spend your second transfer on?
I spent a larger portion of my second transfer on paying school fee for my children and used some on buying food.
Describe the biggest difference in your daily life.
I have two children in secondary school who had a huge balance in school but thanks to Gd I managed to clear the fee balance. This has given them ample time to study without being spending a lot of time at home due to school fee. This is the biggest difference in my daily life.
