With this money I would improve my house and buying a mattress and blankets. I will also invest in livestock like goats and chicken to sell later when I need arises since I only have a dog currently. I'd also buy a bicycle to easy my transportation.
What is the happiest part of your day?
Once there is no money and food there's no happiness in the home. Being able to eat every day is a blessing that we don't take for granted.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest challenge right now is food. This is because of how it rains in our area. To cushion this, my husband weaves mats and sells at the market. He makes about 25 mats a month and that sells for K1200 each making about K30,000 (~$25). That money is not enough for all our household needs so we look for casual work compliment.
