The key is balance. It doesn't take an expert to know that. However, I think articles like these are important for everyday folk because I see it day in and day out - people can't control their spending. They need to be told to be frugal, otherwise they spend until the credit is maxed. They are always chasing to pay down cards each month instead of padding the savings account.
I think it's extremely important to have a personal budget. Know exactly how much money is coming in, how much is going out at all times. Adjust spending as necessary. Most personal budgets have room to trim some fat, that is for sure.
