What did you spend your third transfer on?
I built a new kitchen, I bought a new fridge and finally paid school fees for my children. By the time I got this money, I had no kitchen, and that is why I opted to build one. In addition to that, I normally sell fruit juice and I really needed a fridge to preserve my products that I normally sell to my customers out of which I make a living.

I managed to start up a business that I had longed for but I couldn't afford thus I can easily meet my daily needs from the income I get out of it. My child too now has ample time for his studies since I managed to clear his school fee.
