For Takudzwa Moyo (30), buying torn or worn-out money is not just a hustle but a way of earning a living.
“As for me it represents an opportunity. With the little profits I make from buying torn money, I manage to earn a living,” he said.
“The exchange rate or amount I give people with torn money depends on how torn the money is. But mostly, when someone comes with a torn US$5 note, I give that person US$3 or US$4, if its US$10 I usually give people US$8 so that I can benefit something.
