What did you spend your third transfer on?
My father-in-law had just passed on when I received my third transfer, so most of the money I spent on the funeral expenses. I thank God I received the money at that time because, I do not want to imagine what might have happened on the farewell. Maybe he could have not received a good decent burial. The remaining I spent on buying a cow for rearing.
