Dream Home

[Anonymous No.8119453]

I want a comfy /biz/ thread about a specific "making it" goal--your dream home. I feel like this is something that all of us have thought about, "where will I live if I do end up making it?"

Lets post images of your ideal environment and dream about the future.

>pic related
I work literally 2 blocks from this building.

http://www.nydailynews.com/life-style/real-estate/tribeca-new-tallest-60-story-tower-rising-jenga-game-article-1.1339903

I can only imagine how beautiful it would be having a condo like that, surrounded by lights, a fireplace in the center room, a complete PC and entertainment system setup in a corner near one of the windows, neon lights around the window to complete the aesthetic.

I often see clouds shrouding the very top of it on a foggy day. I look up and think of a person living there, looking out into white nothingness sipping hot cocoa in a blanket, charts on one screen with /biz/ or a game on the other in front of them.

Unfortunately I'd need to have tens of millions to even consider one of those apartments, but any kind of high rise like that in a city is incredibly appealing to me.

Traditional Japanese houses look nice but they are very uncomfortable to live in. Older ones have poor insulation/heating and the wooden parts need constant maintenance. Newer ones can be better but retain the features of older ones which will kill your back unless you're okay with doing everything on the floor. Also real estate is not a good long term investment in Japan b/c people prefer to buy new.

I'd have one of these but I'd spend a load decking it out with purge-level security shit like hidden metal shutters, bars, surveillance. Assuming it had a basement I'd fill that shit with long-lasting foods and items prepper-style. I'd also build a tunnel from the basement to an underground bunker in the garden in case of nuclear war.

In addition I'd buy a sweet apartment or townhouse in the local city for when I wanted to do my annual socialising.

Don't leave US waters. Piracy is a real problem these days - you'd be boarded and attacked in Asia and Africa. My relative used to have a large sailboat, and would go on long trips in the Pacific - find some small atols or islands and just chill, but they got into too many dangerous situations to do it anymore. They also had to sneak some pretty heavy duty guns on board.
Also, living on a boat sounds cool, but one good big storm out at sea will cure you of that dream pretty fast. Ships like that are really meant for docking near expensive resorts for weekend parties.

You have to stay out of shipping lanes and shit like that, but you can drop anchor pretty much anywhere off shore. You can't just pull into marinas, though, you have to pay for a berth.
Those luxury boats can cross, but they're not really designed for rough weather. They usually stay in safer waters. There are boats, classified as "explorer yachts", that are outfitted to survive out in the ocean better than that - that yacht is a toy for a rich arab, for weekend parties, not real travel.
My dream for a long time was to build my own Calypso - retrofit an old military boat for travel, but without the subs and shit Cousteau had. But you can't run a ship like that alone, and the older I get, the less I want to be around other people.
Also, while traveling the world by boat sounds cool, getting fuel and supplies, not so much. There are no 7-11s out there. And you better have a good engineer and a good tool room and parts bay, because if you break down in the middle of the ocean, the Coast Guard isn't coming to get you, and you can either hope a big tanker will divert to pick you up, or you can pay through the nose to hire someone to tow you back to shore.

I want to say 1923 but it could have been earlier than that. I don't know how it got haunted. It was built right next to an old fort from the revolutionary war and held prisoners of war during WW II. It would throw stuff around my room at night and one time it took an old wooden horse I had in my room and rode it around the room. I never told my parents either. I was too young to really understand what was going on (10 years old) but it is why I got into the occult later in life. I think it started when I used to lay in bed and actively will the shadows to move around the room.

Here's a building I toured, the unit was near the top - if they'd had washers and dryers in the unit and there wasn't a $1500 monthly maintenance fee, it would have been perfect.

California would be great due to weather but it's so expensive you'd need close to 2 or 3m for a nice sized home not packed in with neighbours.

Italy be great but you'd need to build cos the homes there aren't great.

I'd want minimum of 1000 square meters. Huge pool. Large grass area. Big bedrooms. Open plan living. Modern style made of concrete with wood panelling or highlights to make it warm with green life inside each room.
