The Dark Story of How Walt Disney Went From Bankrupt To a $200 Billion Empire

🏆 Please consider to join my channel as an exclusive member and supporter:    / @oldmoneydynasty   Walt Disney went bankrupt in Kansas City, lost his first famous character to a Hollywood distributor, and bet his entire studio on a cartoon the industry swore would ruin him. This is the full story of how a broke young artist built Disneyland, Walt Disney World, and one of the most powerful entertainment empires ever created, all on a single rule: own everything you make and never let anyone take control of it. Along the way we trace the bitter animators' strike that broke his studio, the truth behind the myth that Walt was frozen after his death in 1966, and the secret land deal that hid Walt Disney World inside a Florida swamp. And we end with the strangest turn of all, a company his own family no longer controls, and a Disney heir who now stands outside its gates as one of its loudest critics.
