There are certainly people that exist who try and live exorbitantly, putting things on credit that will just bury them eventually. That said, this is entirely tone deaf/gaslighting "advice" in an article for people actually living on the edge of poverty.

This is merely a tacky way of saying, "Stop living beyond your means." Kinda like the, "Stop buying Starbucks." thing.

I'd like to see the original context though.
