With what i get in this business i buy food for my family pay rent and school fees as well.

My Business

I do a charcoal and firewood business here in mtwapa,. This business here does best because of the high live cost , and considering that people living here are middle earners making it hard for the them to afford the high prices of cooking gas and kerosine. This business here is profitable and i get an income of ksh 20,000, with this amount i use ksh 5,000 paying school fees, ksh 2,000 paying rent and ksh 5,000 buying food for the family. So in a month i save ksh 8,000. With this amount of savings i can use to repay my loan.
