I don't see why a lot of people disagree with his advice. Perhaps it is the words he uses. These are his basic divisions of cash.
1. Live cheaply. Don't waste money where you don't need to.
2. Expand your network by being nice and friendly to people.
3. Learn and invest in your future.
4. Take time off, travel the world and expand your horizons.
5. Save money. This is ideally used to start your dream. In reality, this can be used in times of trouble.
What's so bad about that? I think this is good advice for anyone trying to ``make it''.
