"Life is different in that I have a peace of mind because I am able to send children to school and pay their fees, movement to places like burials, markets, hospital, even visits has been eased with purchase of a bicycle. Before, it was very difficult to afford to send children go school, and I used to move long distances on foot."

"I have always wanted to start a business and GiveDirectly has fulfilled my dream. I expect to have started my business by then which will generate income for my family. I want to save towards buying livestock for rearing as financial security for my family. I shall have built a new house by then and my family will be living in a large house and comfortably."

"In the next six months, I expect my lifestyle to greatly improve since I shall be living well. Due to the fact that the transfers I always able to obtain food for my household, I shall be more focused on my personal development. For instance, I shall use my savings to acquire a motorcycle which I shall use as my main source of earning."

"I have always wanted to be a farmer so I want to venture into farming in the next few months. I will be able to do this by saving the transfers and leasing more farms which will yield more farm produce. I will sell the surplus to get income for my family and also get food for consumption."

"My life is better than before in that, I commenced the construction of a permanent house. This has made me live a happy life because, I never had the money to build a better house than the dilapidated structure am currently staying in."

"In the next six months, I would have harvested the maze which I currently have on my farm. I expect to get a good harvest and would keep some for consumption and the surplus will sell to earn money. I would be financially stable and would decide on another income generating project."

"In the next six months, I expect to buy some of the household items such as a sofa set. The chairs will greatly improve the appearance of my house and make it more comfortable to live in. I also expect to buy some goats and sheep which I shall keep to help me in the future when the transfers are over."

"In the next six months, I expect to have purchased a dairy cow. I will facilitate this by combining our transfers together with my wife for 3 months then use it to buy a dairy cow."

"My new goal that I did not have before receiving the transfers is to buy a motorcycle. I am planning to use my second transfer to buy the motorcycle which will be an additional source of income to my family. Currently, I am struggling to provide for my family and pay school fees for my siblings with the little money I get from my photo shop. Starting the motorcycle business will therefore be an additional source of income to pay school fees and cater for other needs of my family."
