I bought an abandoned tiny house.
I used to walk past this building every day on my way to school when I was a little boy and it always intrigued me, but unfortunately, no banks would give an 8 year old a mortgage, so I had to wait until I was 26 before I could finally buy it and turn it into my first home.
When the renovation started, it was just a disused building packed to the brim with forgotten items. It had no insulation, no heating, and no water, but step by step, it slowly transformed into a cosy home I could be proud of.
It took a lot of time, effort, and money - I mean, I think the rule of thumb with renovations is to expect them to take twice as long and cost twice as much as you initially plan for - but it was definitely worthwhile in the end.
Side note - the first person to visit me in here was this frog who turned up to inspect the bathroom.
At the end of the renovation, I put the whole journey on YouTube and the video ended up going very viral, meaning I was able to quit my job and go full time as a content creator.
In my next videos, since it’s something people always ask, I’ll reveal how much the tiny house cost to buy and renovate, how much YouTube paid me for that viral video, and also address something people were a bit raging about in my last video, so follow along to see all of that.
