He's not the only general who spends like this. It's just a cover story, like Petraeus and his affair.
There have been at least half a dozen generals leave recently. Obama is removing the military leadership to install people more loyal to him and his plans.
Coincidently, a purge like this happens whenever a socialist revolution begins.
