A quick search brought up this monitor and it's funny because I bought this monitor 5 years ago for my husband. He's still using it and it's still a good deal for a quality monitor. Speakers built in.

edit to add: pssst I used a fold-up card table + chair from Walmart for many years until I built a desk from IKEA. :p Desks are expensive, no doubt... But if you do end up using a flimsy card table, you may need to have the tower on the ground (not on carpet) because of weight.

Using a TV for a monitor is fine. Use an HDMI or DisplayPort cable for connection making sure to plug into the graphics card; not motherboard. The only reason a monitor is better is because TVs tend to have terrible response time for PC gaming but this only really comes into play for FPS shooter type of games... you won't notice with Sims.
Where are you located so I can link some monitors
