How Much Money Does Your Family Send Back Home???

My family sends $500 to family members across EAST AFRICA. We have family in Kenya, Ethiopia, Uganda, and Somalia> Puntland. When times get difficult we Max at 1,000 Plus.

There is a drought in Mudug at the moment so we are sending more than usually to family members in Galcayo.

Waxaana miyaa iskugu faneenaa hada?

Some things shouldn't be discussed publicly waryee, it's a private matter what your family sends to other family memebers.

Specially in Puntland dude. I swear somalians aren't Appreciative. We give them our Mension in Galcayo to live in and free money and they continue to ask and ask for more like we are Bill Gates or something.

Actually something funny happened the first time I got a call from Africa. My mom was listening on the call and My Uncle called saying he needed money. I asked him how much he needed and he started laughing histarically and my Mom who was upstairs coldn't hold it and started laughing. She told me "dadki africa joogo lama weydiiyo meeqaad u baahantahay". Friggin buufis! kkkkk

I am tired of sending money walaah.

For the last Nth years I have been sending money...and these ppl back home never get satisfied ..thinking you have made it all..not knowing what you go through when making that miserable money.


But every time I make someone happy ...it also makes me feel satisfied...Alxamduliah.

when I was Yunga...I always used to ask my mom for a computer and she would tell me, the money was badly needed in Africa, I would constantly ask her until like a 1 year later when they (kuwa afrika jooga) send some pictures over to us and from the pics, them niggas were sporting a expencive PC with paltalk on, I bagged my mom over it and she started laughing and b4 you knew it, mid baa la ii soo dhigey fadhigam hahahaha.

Marka what I am saying is....they are living large while u are working hard and they think money falls from the sky, the fuk? lol
