“Before I think of buying something, I will move it to my other account before it gets reversed.”

“I’ll buy my mom a house, she has been living in a shack for too long.”
@mikewamanike_2.0 commented:
“I’m building 20 rooms in Limpopo, for each room the rent will be R4.5k. I’d also buy a R3 million penthouse in Sandton to rent it out for R20k per month. Lastly, I’d buy myself a Hilux Legend 50 and go stay with my mother for the rest of my life.”
@Klive Boss shared:
“That number is too round. I struggle to break money like that. I wouldn't know what to do, I'd wait a bit. If it were R12 356 765, I would deal with that R56 765, quickly.”
@Nonkululeko Sishi2 said:
“Pay off all my debts, open trust accounts, and leave maybe 100k in my account, but definitely won’t tell anyone that I’ve won anything.”
