Briefly News also reported that a local woman is being given the plaudits by her social media followers after expressing her view on what it means to enjoy a "soft life" in Mzansi.

Using the popular phrase that is often thrown around in social circles virtually anywhere, thanks to the culture of flashing expensive possessions that people have adopted – particularly on social media, the focused woman drove home her point.

Heading online, the Twitter user @KaraboKotuu, posted a picture that shows her standing next to what looks like a Hyundai Grand i20.

"I'm undeniable from a poor background... This is why my definition of Soft Life can't be similar to yours, my milestone and achievements may have always been your daily bread, and It's okay," read the heartfelt caption accompanying the pic.
