Walt Walton's Side Hustle

Walt was so broke he didn't even have the money for a train ticket out to los angeles to start over again. He bought a camera on loan and went door to door to the wealthiest neighborhoods in kansas city, offering to make films of people's children. And just a matter of a week or two, he was able to scrape together enough money to pay for the camera that he had bought and then buy a train ticket from Kansas City to Los Angeles. "He said he felt free and happy, as if he were lit up inside by incandescent lights"
