I am 65 but strong and healthy. Life was not easy during my youthful days. I had to struggle to care for my siblings. I was a teacher with a technical background. I decided to do taxi business alongside whatever l was doing. I had the desire of setting up a Transportation business. By the grace of God, things started working out.
I am now running a transport business with two assistants. We transport workers and market women to and fro their work places. This is a good business because, people always have to travel from their places of residence to their work places. The income helps me to pay my assistants and pay for my wards school fees.
I will use this money to purchase clutch and brake discs to replace worn out ones. These will cost about $180. This will aid confident driving on the road and therefore bring in more jobs and more income. This can increase the weekly income by about $20. More income means more peace of mind for the children to study in school, and to pay my assistant.
