The money will mean alot to me, it will help me build a new house ,which I am not able to do now cause I earn less money. I earn about MK 10000 per month which is not enough to buy food and build a new house. I have a child and a wife and the money that I get from work I use it to buy food and clothes. I drop out of school when I was in standard 3, so the work that I do doesn't pay much.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of the day is the evening when am home with my wife. I am happy when we have food for the family and also I am happy knowing I will rest after working the whole day.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship that I have faced is lack of money. I depend on small piece of work to get money, sometimes my family and I go to bed without food because we have no money. If there is no one to give me work to do for that day it means no food for us.
