"I am planning to spend my transfer on buying a water tank of 60,000 litres that can be used for water harvesting, I will buy furniture for my house including chairs and a bed. I will spend part of the transfer on paying school fees for my children who are going to school and I will buy them also some clothes. The remaining amount I will spend on buying food that we eat and some of it we will use it in boosting my son's business of selling chicken."
