What did you spend your second transfer on?
When I received my share of the second transfer, I used the whole of it to buy 24 iron sheets which AI intend to use in building s new house in my own home, since I currently stay in my father's homestead, but our culture requires that a man stays in his own home.
Describe the biggest difference in your daily life.
The biggest difference in my daily life is that I now have higher hopes of building my house since I have already acquired iron sheets for it.
