What did you spend your third transfer on?
When I received my third transfer, I renovated and furnished my main house which has reduced dusts and improved its appearance. It had turned old and had dents and crevices all over hence it was not suitable for our lives. Constant cleaning was the order of the day to reduce dusts.
