What did you spend your second transfer on?
I spent my second transfer on paying 30,000 KES for the land I'll settle on, bought a cow at 15,000 KES, then used the rest of the cash on food for the house.
Describe the biggest difference in your daily life.
The biggest difference in my daily life is that I now have my own cow that gives me hopes of having milk tea, unlike now that I only take porridge. Am also happy that I now have my own land that I can boldly cultivate now that I managed to finish paying for it.
