Hello Shadrack! If your new modem works well, consider sharing it for profit. Some routers will connect directly to your Huawei, then you could let people connect via WiFi at a profit. It can be tricky, you would need to select just the right router. Regards, Dave

I'm glad that your Mum is recovered, and I look forward to learning your future plans, and seeing the photos of camp under coconut trees. It sounds very nice! If you tried to go camping here in my province by the ocean in November, you would get rained on a lot. If you tried camping in province in the mountains, you might get snowed on. Really you don't want to camp in November here, unless you are a super wilderness person. With a lot of hot chocolate.

blessed lenders i just want to say thanks for funding my loan i received the loan funds in good time and even now i have planted the banana seedlings. towards the end of next year the project will completely be well and widely established. i want to say this that when i began with zidisha i was completely job less but through the way i developed my village by using zidisha loans . It attracted alot of people everywhere and so they began to inquire of me about my education and other things so they made me famours even in the whole province of which caused one of the form manufacturing companies to employ me .although the money they pay me is too little but i accepted so that i can help other people.

Your cabbage growing is very impressive. Regarding purchasing land, is it possible when you buy a piece to do a rent to own option, you sign a contract where a percentage of your rent goes towards a down payment of the land. It is sometimes a good way to get started. I will help you with the purchase as much as I can and I hope other Zidisha members will help too. Your idea of teaching is excellent, that is a great wage to earn for an hour of work. Keep up the good work Benjamin!
