Man Who Built Mobile Street House Cashes Out

He’d spent months building the house of his dreams. He’d do his best not to end up on the streets. The process was long and arduous, but he completed it and successfully moved in.

Then one night, everything changed. What he thought a simple visit from a curious passerby would change his life forever.

Living In Beijing

Kim Liu was your average twenty-nine-year-old architect living in Beijing, China. He’d spent most of his twenties trying to set up for the rest of his adult life so he wouldn’t suffer.

But as he was reaching thirty, he quickly realized that adult life was more challenging than he’d earlier anticipated. An idea that started as a way to prevent him from being homeless would be the big break he always wanted in life.

New To The City

Kim hadn’t always been a Beijing native. He’d moved to the city right after clearing his master’s in architecture and had hoped to start his career on a high note.

But although his career would take off immediately, a massive problem would crop up for Kim, threatening to destroy all he’d worked to achieve thus far.

A Good Career

Kim’s career was steadily growing, but he’d realized something about Beijing that made him wish he lived elsewhere. For every good that the city had done for him, it was about to leave him homeless.

This was because almost every house, hotel, and apartment in the city and its outskirts was costly. Although Kim was no stranger to high rent, he’d never encountered anything like Beijing’s rates. He had to do something about his situation or end up on the streets.

What To Do

Kim raked his mind on what to do. He’d found the job of his dreams and knew he wouldn’t give it up because of living conditions. He also couldn’t work from home, given his position was rarely remote.

To make matters worse, he’d already received an eviction notice from his landlord and knew he didn’t have much time to figure everything out. He then had a brilliant idea that would turn everything around.
