“I’m going through it myself. It’s tough man. Like I feel only the billionaires are living soft because jo ya kena ya tswa. Everything is just expensive. Water electricity, food, petrol, security, rent, tax, etc.”
He said he was “not making enough money”.
“I’m always stressed about the next month,” he admitted.
