Annah
received a $22 twelfth payment.
"I would like to save my next transfers to help me acquire a cow. I believe this is the best investment I can have in my family. When it gives birth, I would be able to sell its offsprings to raise money to solve other financial issues. Whenever it gives birth, I will be able to sell the milk to help me in my daily needs."
