"Our first plan is to use part of the transfer to buy three goats, that would be as an investment for our family use. Secondly, we intend to use another part of the transfer to buy two cows, that would provide us with milk, and sell surplus to the villagers for family income. Lastly, we plan to use the remaining amount to start a second-hand clothes selling business, for family income."
