link please.... :)

 

Go to:

 

illwillpress.com

 

It's under cartoons, coffee house propaganda I and II.

 

Let's see...

 

Cigarettes:

A pack a day => a carton every 10 days $32 * 36.5 = $1168

 

Alcohol:

A fifth of Crown Royal every two weeks => $27 * 26 = $702

 

Soda:

A case of Coca-Cola Classic a week => $8 * 52 = $416

 

That's over $2200 that I spend on crap that I "need".

I don't smoke or drink. I did a bit in college but that was a 15 years ago.

I also cut all sodas out of my diet a few years ago.

My ony real vice is Starbucks and spending too much money on compter stuff.

And spending the $10K I saved for a move to Hawaii on a 10 day resort vacation with my girlfriend who left me and moved back to Sweden, but that is another story for another thread.

i dont smoke, drink occasionally but im normally driving and i dont even touch the stuff when im driving.

 

although i have discovered drinking 4-8 pints of coke on a night out is probably wprse for me than getting pissed, i end up all night in the toilet peeing whereas if i drink 4-8 pints of redbull i dont pee all night

Honestly, I do not go to Starbucks to get coffee.

 

Jitter Bean Coffee Company, a local business, suits my simple needs just fine.

 

Bought one of their mugs for $16. Everytime I bring it in, the coffee (with 2 sugars and cream) costs me $1.35 instead of the regular price of $1.85.

 

5 days a week x 52 weeks x $1.35 = $351 per year. I can live with that. :)

That's the site :nod: thanks

 

I've done studies on how much cigarettes cost and I've also seen a study on how much Starbucks costs. A financial adviser named David Bach was holding a seminar and a heckler said "well I don't have the money to save", so he said "well what do you do every day?" to which she replied saying she went to Starbuck's everyday in the morning, and always got a latte and a scone or something, and she always went to lunch every day too. He figured out that all the money she was spending every day, if put in an investment, could've gotten her millions of dollars. :eek2:

 

And if I may be so bold, I think investing all your money in a single stock is very unwise investing. Especially when the company is still new and not established yet, if they don't make it you'll not only lose all your money, but you'll be thrown back to square one and all those years you've spent investing during which you could've been turning huge profits, would be wasted. :sad:
