Afrikaner works in the US

Jacques Faith van Tonder, who works in the farming industry in the States, uploaded a video on his TikTok account telling app users the following:

"For years, I had a business in my own country, trying to make money and do well. There were good times, and there were bad times. But it came to a point where I didn't have a way out.
"The only option was to look to earn dollars. I realised how happy I am to work in America, earn dollars and send them home because it helps my wife and family. We can live the way we lived before."

Jacques credited two websites that helped him on his path to financial relief and stated in his post's caption:
