Owning this cattle means a lot to me because I feel good like the rest of my neighbors who have some too."

"The biggest difference in my daily life is that I have a reliable source of income. Before the transfer, I could stay for a week without getting money. Selling charcoal was the main source of income and being that most of the people were also clogged up in the same business, I could just get a few coins that could not be enough to support my family. Getting customers could take a long time.
