€15,000 transferred right now.

Enough to leave eu-cool back to South Africa for good since quality of life and the political landscape is worsening to the extent where I might even be in some degree of danger. Also work hasn't allowed me to leave for the Friday prayer, so there's that. I do get paid on Monday so after bills that leaves me with a little over €5,000 saved. The extra money would pay for the flight, buying a 1BR apartment outright with maybe spending a few grand on renovations and living expenses would be covered for at least 3 years, leeway to find an income.

I suppose the silver lining is that I am able to add an extra €400 a month to my savings, so this goal is at least materializing albeit slower than I'd like.
