I moved to New York, where I landed a job with a fine-art gallery and auction house. I left the art scene in New York and worried how I'd be able to make a living from art and antiques there. For a while, I sold antiques I'd bought on eBay and Etsy and did freelance work for clients in New York. I wanted to work in antiques remotelyI wanted to be able to work from home helping people around the world identify the value of art, antiques, and collectibles. This job gave me financial freedom, and I was able to buy a houseI was especially busy during the COVID-19 pandemic.
