What did you spend your second transfer on?
I spent most of second transfer on purchasing building materials and constructed a 3 roomed house to replace the pathetic house that I had before. The house was grass thatched and seriously leaking. In fact, the FOs who visited me could not believe that the house belonged to me, they thought I was an impostor.
