South Africa’s economy is no joke. One needs a job and a few side hustles to afford the basics.

An ambitious lady moved to Cape Town for work and ended up pinching pennies in her dull apartment. The corporate influencer survived on R65, which flushed down during an Uber ride to a work event.

Besides the work event, she had a couple of other destinations to visit to execute and complete an assignment. The lady did not suffer much, and her friends managed to rescue her.

They helped her with sneakers since she did not own a pair for the work event, and they also helped her go to all of her locations to capture content that was good enough for her assignment. She uploaded her vlog on TikTok with the caption:
