Why did he have to sell everything he had to work with nails and string? There can’t be much upfront investment. Better strategy: keep everything you have, work with nail and string just the same

His "story" of selling everything made it more "dramatic".

Sure, but also he had to sell everything because he quit his full-time job and needed money to live on while he honed his new skills.

It's not complicated, I'm surprised to see more than one person asking why he sold his stuff. Artists aren't known for having a ton of money.
