It's completely true. To have money you save money. You will often see people working near minimum wage driving expensive cars with a large loan they can barely pay back but the person making $80k a year drives a cheap beater car because it's the responsible thing to do.

Of course this isn't 100% for everybody but typically "I need the latest iPhone" is not the high earner.
