My name is nelson. I am the only child from my mother's side. My mother was a second wife. She passed away when I was still a toddler. My father however had children with his first wife, making me the last born of six. My father also passed away of old age, when I was young but my step siblings took me in and gave me basic needs. I am 20years old but my siblings at all above 40years old. Most of my nephews and nieces are my age mates which makes it strange for some people but I consider myself to be lucky.
I am an online free lancer. I usually transcribe, write essays and also do academic writing with my nephews and nieces. It is one of the most popular jobs because they don't ask for any qualifications and experience is gained with time. For now we usually use a borrowed desk top and take turns working which can be very inconvenient. Due to the limited hours, i feel I do not reach my full potential. For now I make between 500-1000 shillings a week,which excludes any expenses such as internet costs. I know that I will be able to afford the repayments I am needed to make.
If I get a laptop my working hours will increase resulting in my income increasing as well. I will be able to work at any time of day or night without inconveniencing anyone. I will also not have to worry about any of my saved offline work being deleted or tempered with. If I get the loan, I will use It to buy a good laptop with the necessary specifications that I need. That will cost me around 250-300$. I am confident that It will make a very big difference in my work and life as well.
