Yes, if you want to build and retain wealth, then you should learn to live frugally. Charles Dicken's "Ebenezer Scrooge" in his novel "A Christmas Carol" comes to mind, which seems to reinforce the idea that affluence is a false measure of happiness, and can even be a source of grieve as Nick Martin from your article teaches. Happiness comes from within; not from external stuff.
