Yes, it is terribly depressing, but I have just learned that ADAM WEST has had to have a garage sale just to pay for food money. I tried to call him and see if we could work together in a new film project but he refused because I would not supply catering service food ! horrible situation for him due to the fallen economy crisis.
Here a link to video captured at his Garage Sale he held at the actual batcave location...
