My favorite comedian.  However, mustachian he is not.  My brother told me he has no clue how to manage money and has been broke/near broke for most his life, no matter what he makes.  But man is he funny.  My favorite Louis CK skit:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qwt7D8PQ5tI

I don't know where I read or heard this, but I heard he has this issue with over extending with property. He will buy a property, and then upgrade to a larger one, both because he wants to, plus as he says it gives him motivation to keep making money. Man if I made as much money as he does I would set it up I could retire tomorrow, versus sweating paying off a huge mortgage.

Louie was and is notoriously bad with (his own)* money. When he got his first credit card he bought a BMW and stayed at the Ritz for a week because he was locked out of his house. However he is also known for placing deliberately himself in an impossible position in order to push himself to become better. For example the guy owns a boat which he admits he cannot afford. He does the same in comedy. When he starts developing a new hour he starts performing with his last year's closing bit essentially burring himself because then he is forced to follow his best joke. It works wonders in comedy but not in managing wealth. I also remember him saying that money is like air, you have to take it in and then breathe it out. Hardly a mustachian think to say. However that is not a surprise considering his background. His father was absent and his single mother had to raise 4 kids plus he barely got out of high school. The guy is very bright however he doesn’t have a clue about how to manage his capital which truly makes me sad because I love his comedy.

*However Louie is extremely smart with money when he produces his show which runs on just 200K per episode.
