However I had to work for long hours with little pay. I endured the hardship but my goal was to save enough money to start my own business. Because my work was excellent a client who had became a good friend offered me a loan of $200 and I added my $150 saving to open my own shop. I had many clients who preferred my job and the business picked up instantly. I was able to repay the loan and I am now expanding the business.
