What did you spend your third transfer on?
I spent my third transfer on the acquisition of land. I live in someones compound because we do not have ancestral land so when I got my third transfer I added to the second transfer which I had safely kept and bought land with it. Now my family is so very happy because of the fact that we have land of our own.

What are you planning to spend your transfer on?
Our first plan is to use part of the transfer to buy a piece of land at our place, because we don't have one. Lastly, we intend to use the remaining amount to put up a house on that piece of land so as to have our own home.
