Re: Walt Disney
Walt Disney created what has become one of the most lucrative businesses of all time.
The Disney company brought in over 55 BILLION dollars in 2016.
But did you know it started as a result of a bankruptcy?
Most people don’t know that Walt Disney moved from Kansas City to Hollywood in 1923 after he declared bankruptcy with his previous company – Laugh-O-Gram Studios.
Walt had his tail between his legs and was a little embarrassed in the early 1920’s.
He had learned a few lessons from his earlier business and was ready to put that knowledge into action.
And that is how bankruptcy is supposed to be used. It gives people a chance to start over.
Fail. Get back up and go again.
It doesn’t get much more American than that. Entrepreneurship at its very core.
