No, he's saying that you must know what you're doing when you work with 
critical data. You certainly don't want to mess up your payment data 
with some stupid mistake.

It really depends on how big this is going to be. If you're only dealing 
with small data and few users, SQLite is sufficient. Otherwise I'd use 
PostgreSQL. MySQL is also very popular, but I consider it as less mature 
as PostgreSQL. It's lacking many of the advanced features, and it's 
rather sloppy.
