Sean Braisted has a fine analysis. I would add that if Campfield were serious he would put all his assets in a blind trust that he can't access, go live in the $225/mo. dwelling, cut up all his credit cards, opt out of his state-provided health insurance, and buy a clunker at a buy-here-pay-here lot. But he's not a serious person.
