how does that make him an idiot?

People are dumbasses, we know already know that. And his method is VERY EFFECTIVE for probably 75% of the population. And I think that's conservative

I disagree with most of his advice for clients, but for the masses, he's absolutely on point.

It wasn't a rebuttal, it was argumentative.

Get it right.

That you're eating well on $1000 a month for 4 people, basically 4 adults no less. 

We spend about 1k per month on 2 adults and a 12 year old that eats more than my wife. About $700 on groceries and roughly $300 eating out.

We've hashed it out and come to the conclusion it's not outrageous (although many can do it for much less), particularly if it's really a catchall for food and toiletries, cleaning supplies, etc.
