Seriously if you are not earning enough remote working to buy a new laptop / tower, charge more.

I worked remote for 2 years and was paying for a separate office space about 20 minutes walk away. You have to have that separation - otherwise you will take two hours to make lunch and just get that lawn mown instead of doing the emails.

Take a laptop to the library or to Starbucks, go find a friend I a similar shape and swap rooms, knock on local company doors and do website maintenance in return for a desk.

Do not work in your one room in a flat share. Get out. Have physical distance
