I'd be more impressed by his advice -- in order to be able to afford anything you need, be frugal about what you don't -- if he hadn't happened to mention the time that his wife bought a house for $2.8M (and returned it, whatever exactly he means by that). If you can afford houses that expensive, your ability to afford nice stuff is probably not entirely the result of frugality.


And what about the hypocrisy of "don't have kids" combined with his "support my growing family" footer?

Incidentally, for those interested in photography I wouldn't take this guy's photo advise either. The guy lacks depth in understanding and sometimes makes statements that are just ridiculous.

That's just a contradiction, not hypocrisy.


Agree that hypocrisy is a strong word for something that's just a how-to.

Anyway, my point was that his recommendations are not worth much.
