What did you spend your third transfer on?
I spent part of my third transfer on buying two calves and a goat which I intend to sell later at a higher price and use the money to pay my fees. I also bought more clothes, bed and a mattress because I was previously using old ones. The remaining amount went on processing transfer of my education from Uganda to Kenya which unfortunately has not been successful to date.
