In the "Same Sh*t, Different Day" department:

The article isn't about this per se, but

    "...Anyway, like many photographers, his life in the business really
wound down far before his talents did, and he spent the last part of his
life living in a small apartment in Chicago, working at Cubs games at
Wrigley field selling beer, soda, and the rest..."

Sobering thoughts - if you want to make money, don't be a photographer (or
artist, or actor, or...).
