  1. The coffee itself is a metaphor although for not paying attention on your spending. When you sum a lot of wasted little things it makes a significant difference for someone at start of their careers and a lot of people do not notice it. When you sum coffee, changing your phone EVERY year, subscribe to 7 different stream services when you watch 30 min per day, buying more food that you do use and throw food in garbage every week... all that summed up makes difference when combined.

  2. Depends a lot where you live as well. Is pend more on food than on housing every month.

  3. The problem with spending 7 USD in a coffee is not the compound cost.. it is that it shows you are stupid, yes STUPID. I am a developer, so I do drink coffee like hell as fuel, and I spend about 50 USD per year on it. It is STUPID to spend 1400-2000 usd for what you can get for 50. If your willpower is that low that you suffer to see someone drinking in a cup with a mermaid, than THAT IS your problem.. you are TOO STUPID to see that the mermaid does not MATTER
