Because of the unsavoury consequences of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic that has left many jobless, a young woman is making it big in the small business sector.
@Jade_Billions is being seen in the streets of Tshwane where she is selling amagwinya, also called 'vetkoek' or 'fatcakes', and recently took to Twitter to inspire her followers.
The Tshwane-based young businesswoman says money loves her and she has thanked her ancestors for the guidance as she can now make ends meet.
In a caption on her buzzing Twitter page, @Jade_Billions said she only started selling the most favoured food item in Mzansi last Saturday but there is a huge difference as far as a response is concerned.
“I only started selling fatcakes last week Saturday and I've sold approximately 1 000 units. My God is working overtime actually idlozi likhona.”
@KhuluSbali said:
“Jeez, you sold 1 000 fat cakes.”
@AmTevin said:
"Since winter is approaching surely she can sell up to 3 000."
@BakakaFrederic said:
"Plain truth: There's no small business. From small beginnings, you might end up owning a business empire."
@Legae_Kea said:
"She better be aiming that high. I see the potential... This is how it all starts, I can imagine her venturing into ama Kota or that hot plate."
@VictoriousC said:
“That fact that you've managed to employ yourself is a superpower! Keep going.”
@TheBenjMark said:
