这个人卖掉了价值1万美元的动漫收藏品，开了自己的动漫纹身店

There are thousands of “follow your dreams” success stories out there. So much, in fact, that it has become a bit of a cliché in today’s world. However, despite some people being skeptical about many of them as they often involve some form of change, risk, or discomfort, it doesn’t negate the fact that they happen and that people are better off as a result.

世界上有成千上万个“追随梦想”的成功故事。事实上，在今天的世界里，它已经变成了一种陈词滥调。然而，尽管有些人对其中的许多人持怀疑态度，因为他们经常涉及某种形式的变化、风险或不适，但这并不能否定这样一个事实，即它们确实发生了，人们因此变得更好。

A tattoo artist and avid anime fan, inkbypnut on Twitter, recently decided to sell his entire anime collection to finance his anime tattoo shop. He asked Twitter for some help in making it successful, and Twitter delivered.

一位纹身艺术家和狂热的动漫迷inkbypnut最近在推特上决定出售他的全部动漫收藏，以资助他的动漫纹身店。他请求Twitter帮助他取得成功，Twitter提供了帮助。

Just a few days ago, on November 25, inkbypnut posted a tweet of him in an empty commercial space with the caption: “Hey twitter sold all my anime [stuff] to buy my first anime tattoo shop… I’m located in downtown Dallas Texas… opening day is Dec 7th, I hope this goes viral so I can start my anime collect over!”

几天前,11月25日inkbypnut在一个空的商业空间的标题发布了一条推特:“嘿,推特卖掉我所有的动漫(东西)购买我的第一个纹身动漫店……我位于达拉斯德州市区……开幕日是12月7日,我希望这条信息可以走红,这样我可以开始我的动漫收集!”

The artist sold off quite a sizable amount of anime collectibles—to the amount of 10,000 US dollars. So far, he reinvested the money into a commercial space for his tattoo shop, as evident in a video and photos posted on his Instagram account.

这位艺术家卖出了相当数量的动漫收藏品，价值1万美元。到目前为止，他把这笔钱再投资到他的纹身店的一个商业空间，这在他的Instagram账户上发布的视频和照片中可见一斑。

Since then, his post went viral, garnering nearly 40,000 retweets and over 93,000 likes in just 3 days. On top of that, a number of Twitter users reached out to help his business. From interior decoration to replenishing his anime collection to booking appointments prior to opening, people were there to support his dream.

从那以后，他的帖子就像病毒一样迅速传播开来，短短3天内就获得了近4万条转发和逾9.3万个赞。最重要的是，许多推特用户伸出手来帮助他的生意。从室内装饰到补充他的动漫收藏，再到开业前的预约，人们都在那里支持他的梦想。

This stroke of good luck couldn’t have come at a better time. The artist has had a rough year in which his house burned down, he had to sleep in cars, and worked his hide off to make ends meet. He is happy to announce that he will be hiring 8 artists, a piercer, and some shop hands. The shop will be called 1UP Ink.

这次好运来得正是时候。这位艺术家度过了艰难的一年，他的房子被烧毁了，他不得不睡在汽车里，他努力工作以维持生计。他很高兴地宣布，他将雇用8名艺术家、一名穿孔工和一些店员。这家店将被命名为1UP Ink。

Here are some highlights of the tattoo artist’s work
