What did you spend your first transfer on?
I spent my first transfer on a bag of dry corn and assorted food (5,000 KES) and also maize seeds and tractor hire to plough my land as in preparation for food production (5,000 KES).
Describe the moment when you received your money. How did you feel?
The moment when I received my money I felt alive and very joyful; It happens that I had felt frustrated just a while earlier since the bulls that were to have ploughed my land for the current food production season had all died a sudden death, but here I was, God had provided a way through GD money so I could afford to hire a tractor, and no more frustration!
