You can say the same thing about Marx, who spent his life scribbling his crackpot theories while his own family starved.
Yep, he was really one to emulate alright. Two daughters and a son-in-law committed suicide, three children died of malnutrition. His daughter Laura married a Socialist, buried three of her children, then she and her husband committed suicide together. Another daughter, decided with her husband to do the same thing and she died but he backed out...
Some great family history there.
