What did you spend your third transfer on?
I bought building materials with my first and second transfer and therefore when I received my third transfer I spent it on building semi permanent rental houses .I had a plan of doing so but I did not have capital, because my husband does casual job and sometimes he comes back home empty handed, so I thought of doing so to enable us have a sustainable source of income.
