Mzansi shares thoughts on Zama's allowance

Some people find it hard to believe that Zama gets this much monthly. She previously trended for her wedding dress. Below are some of the salty reactions:

@Precious_got said:

"Nope, it’s not monthly lmao because she’s only posting this now. It was money nje for her to go get appliances for her house."

@ilovezizo_ shared:

"R120K pm is fair for being with this man."

@TboozeSA replied:

"You know those gents who date people they don't really love like that? They always feel compelled to lead with what that lady does. Whether it’s her career or her wealthy family. They constantly explain why they are with them in random order. I believe. Never mind."

@starr_M_junior asked:

"And Samke Khwela gets R100. Three zeros short. Let me tool because I don’t even get a cent."

@KayMaxed exclaimed:

"She deserves a million!"

@__T_touch remarked:

"So she only got married to him because she wanted a soft life. She is so young."

@Midas_316 stated:

"Women have it easy in life. There are people out there getting chowed by courses, and after completing, they don't even earn above 50K."
