“At that same period, I had an accident with my car. It was stupid, it was a mess. My yearly rent starts in January so when everyone is doing Detty December, and this has been happening since 2013, I’m always calculating.

“I am not spending, I am not partying, I’m literally calculating stuff. My rent was due every January and when my first daughter came, school fees happened too. So, yes, my finances have been a mess for the longest. My small circle of friends know.”
