What did you spend your second transfer on?
I spent my second transfer on purchasing building materials and constructed an iron roofed house. I previously possessed a grass thatched house which was seriously leaking. I always got much worries whenever it rained when I was away from my house as the leakages allowed in too much water which spoilt my household items.
