Husband is in Qatar for work. It has been 6 years since he started working in the hotel there. Before my husband went abroad, we used to run a small business in the village of Siva in Fidim Municipality-6.
The children grew up. As the school was far away from home, they started to worry about their future . Now go to the headquarters to teach your children . Start living with your children in a rented room . I am a person who works hard in the village and I don't want to sit empty-handed in the capital.
From a young age, he felt that he had to do something, so he didn't like to do anything. Now, after buying a machine, iron and scissors, I rented a shutter of a concrete house on the old Malpot line in the headquarters, Fidim, and started sewing. To break the story, even though I was young, I came to a business decision because I realized that it would not be possible to save even if I had to pay for the expenses of the head office, room rent and children's school fees on a regular basis. He boldly invested the seed capital to start a shop after saying 'If you pay the household expenses, you can save what I have earned'.
Until I started this business, my husband's earnings did not save for household expenses. Although there were some difficulties in the beginning, gradually I started winning the hearts of customers in the tailoring business . Business also started to flourish . I sew students' clothes . The shop is not going to make it attractive . Order is available to receive . The client must return at the beginning of the academic session. At that time, the mind becomes sour . Currently, husband's earnings do not have to be spent for household expenses.
She can't earn as much as she earns by suffering abroad, but she doesn't have to spend what her husband earns on house rent, shutter rent, children's school fees, medicines and kitchen essentials. Even though it is in the village, we have attached the land . In the house where the shop is located, I pay 6000 rupees as rent, 3000 as room rent . 6,000 rupees are spent monthly to pay Nanibabu's school fees. Apart from this, 25 to 30 thousand rupees are spent per month including food and medicine.
This expense is almost covered by the shop's earnings. I am also trained and registered with Council for Technical Education and Vocational Training (CTEVT). There are still plans to refine the business . But he is not alone because he is alone. Whatever I do, I consult with my husband. There are plans to further advance the business . After the husband returns from abroad, there is a great desire to earn together and enjoy together .
