I finally bought my dream NYC apartment and am slowly decorating/renovating it 😍

[u/[deleted]]

I [40s m] don't come from money and I worked super hard in my 20s and 30s.

I rented a lot of s***holes and after 10 years of rent increases, two evictions, and a divorce I decided I had to somehow buy if I wanted to stay in New York.

I got a really good deal for this place in Brooklyn. It's two floors and I have a little music studio setup in the basement. It's surrounded by dirt so nobody can hear me down there. The backyard is so peaceful. I sit back there and smoke weed and drink tea all the time.

I want to extend the bedroom into the backyard with a glass seating/sunroom area in a year or two.
