My new goal is to continue buying building materials which I will use in completing the expansion of my house. This is my only goal for now which I am determined to achieve as soon as possible. I will c continue saving to buy the materials.

I have been living in a small iron-roofed house which I build two years ago when I finally moved into own compound. I did not have many resources at that time. The little I had is what I used to put up a house, two rooms. Now that my family is grown, the house has not been accommodating us well. As a result, I needed to expand it to accommodate my family well and this is why I used my transfers to buy building materials such as iron sheets and nails which I will use to expand my house to two bedroomed house. I am happy I will no longer send my children to my neighbour's house to find a sleeping place.

My life will change in the next six months is to start a small business. I would want to start a business so that I no longer have to go through the struggles I have gone through in the past. I would not want to go back to the life of relying on unreliable casual work as my main source of income. I would want to have a reliable source of income so that I may be able to provide for my family well without seeking help and borrowing.

I do not have any new goals apart fro the one of constructing a house for myself. This my dream.

The biggest difference in my daily life since I started receiving these transfers is that I have been saving. I am planning to use my savings in buying building materials. I have been struggling to raise money to buy building materials but due to my low income from the motorcycle business, I have not been able to. Since the transfers started streaming in, I have bought a few items and I am optimistic that construction will begin soon.

In the next six months, I would want to continue with my savings. I would want to save till I get the amount needs to buy building materials and paying masons who will construct the house. I would want to achieve my goal with this opportunity given to me by GD.

My life is different from how it would have been four months ago in that I have always had food for my family. I used to struggle to raise money to meet my family needs since I only depend on income from motorcycle business which is not much. Since I had many demands, at times, I would fail to provide all the meals for my family. Receiving these transfers has helped me provide three meals a day for my family.

My new goal in the next four months I wish want to buy at least a sheep or a goat. This is an investment whose value increases on a daily basis and they will increase in number which will help me reduce my poverty.

The biggest difference in my daily life since I started receiving these transfers is that I have savings which I will use in buying building materials. I have been struggling to raise money to buy building materials but due to my low income from motorcycle business which is not much to help me meets my daily needs, I was not able to. I had to buy grass to build my house because I could not afford iron sheets. Since I started receiving these transfers, I have been saving to help me buy building materials to build a house of my choice.

In the next six months, I would want to continue with my savings. I would want to save till I get the amount needs to buy building materials and paying masons who will construct the house. I would want to achieve my goal with this opportunity given to me by GD.

My life is currently different from how it was because I am able to take care of my needs easily. Currently, my business is steady since I managed to boost it with GiveDirectly transfers. I no longer loan goods from the shops in order to meet my needs when my business is not doing well.

My new goal is to buy a motorcycle. I intend to leave the kiosk business for my wife to manage so that we can get money from both sides. She is currently jobless and depending on one business is not enough to cater for our needs.

The biggest difference in my daily life in the last four months is that I have been happy and more hardworking. I feel motivated because everything is working well in my life. I was able to boost my kiosk business. I have seen a great change because taking care of my needs has been easy. Currently, I can meet my needs without asking for loans. I used to take food items on loan from the shop. The shopkeeper was kind enough to me but I thank God I will not be loaning items more often.

I expect my life to change in the next six months in that, I will have bought a motorcycle. I want to have an extra source of income because I will have left our kiosk business for my wife to manage. This will expand our sources of income making us financially stable.

My business is doing well because I have good stock, I have never gone without food unlike before when we would struggle to get food and generally I feel my life will get better in future.

I would still want to make my business grow by adding more stock.

The biggest difference in my life is that my business is doing well. This is the only source of income and I value it so when I received the money, that is where my focus has always been. I know it will help in future with my family.

I would still want to make my business to be the best in the area.

My new goals includes the following: Planning on buying new building materials in order to build a new house.

My life is currently different from how it was because I can have a good business with enough stock, that will enable me make enough money, in addition to building a new house.

I expect my life to change positively because I will be able to pay school fees for my children and also build a nice house for them. In addition to that, I will be able to provide the basic necessities to them without so much struggles.

The biggest difference in my life is that I am now able to be proud of my new increased amount of stock for my business.
