Just call him out on the B.S.
Just answer: "if you are so impressed and you have seen how I've made it then how come you are not doing the same?"
Of course, he will find another excuse, but there is nothing you can do about that.
I think we all know lots of people like that.
Yup, only "excuses" with him is an understatement. I have heard every one in the book from him in the past year, including SEVERAL on why he is late for rent or has no money to pay his bills. He is the type of guy who wants the best of everything, but without the grunt work to get it ("champagne taste on a beer budget" as my Mom used to say).
As you said, we all know someone like that! Each to their own I guess.
