This was a “klal” answer, for his kolel. The hanhala of the yeshiva gave it out. If you’re looking for real chumros, you might want to try Mogen Avraham zman for krias shema, Rabbeinu Tam zman for Motzai Shabbos, Beis yosef Glatt (with Ashkenaz psakim as well),single-malt scotch, etc. These chumros have a real halachic basis, as opposed to something vague like taking money from the government, which seems to be a chumra designed to do nothing more than make it harder to stay in kolel, and which no rav I know of supports.
