But, then again, you can't really take MMM (or any financial blogger, for that matter) entirely at face value.

But he's great at marketing a blog and a potential lifestyle.
Only work 9 years to support you for the next half century, the math simply doesn't work even if you don't spend a penny. That's not what MMM has done but that's what he advertises.

But it does shed light that you can make money doing these financial porn websites.

Like I said million dollar journey is a better read. The author details his income, investment strategy monthly and how he amassed a million dollar networth over a long period of time, rather than chalking everything up to extreme frugality.
