Without going into detail, I've seen a lot of people "Go broke trying to look rich".
What the man is saying is live within your means and don't waste money you could be saving on something that isn't going to benefit you in 24 hours. Be it avocado toast, the latest pair of Air Jordans, or getting a pedicure. It's fine if you can afford it but a lot of people would be a lot better off if they weren't "Keeping up with the Joneses". I'm willing to bet a lot of people don't even like avocado toast (or whatever it's a metaphor for) but just want to impress their friends.
