Web dev is great for a lot of people, perhaps not for everyone.
As for MMM is general, I personally love his style. I remember back in grad school, I stumbled upon his blog, I think from an HN comment. I was hooked. I read through years of blog posts in a few months. I probably factored heavily into my decision of not going for the PhD (stopped at MASc).
Although I still think he makes a lot of good points, my take on frugality and my personal finance goals are a bit more, um, nuanced these days. For anyone who'd be interested in a quick intro to his core ideas, I highly recommend this 28 min talk, it's a really fun watch:
