PakiLawu uploaded the clip to his TikTok account, which over half a million users viewed. The woman, whose job was not mentioned, gave a rough estimate of R8 000 per month for her daughter's toiletries, and R1 200 for her hair. The honest mother didn't put a price on transportation, basic maintenance, and entertainment (enjoying time with her friends), but she and her daughter concluded on the R80 000, which enabled the young woman to "survive and live comfortably" in Johannesburg.
