"So I asked my mother for R20 return taxi fare to go hustle in Polokwane with a brown envelope, the plan was to just walk into every government building and ask for help."

His fortune quickly changed when he met the Good Samaritan who looked at his matric results and called the relevant person at the University of Limpopo.

"He makes a call and then says: 'I've just called the University of Limpopo, with your results, you'll get 1-year bursary that covers registration, tuition and campus accommodation. I need you to go to Turfloop right now!'. I look at him with confusion and desperation. I have R10 left."
