The people who say they need 3 cups of black coffee to start their day are just addicts with a high tolerance that experience mild withdrawal symptoms each morning.

If you feel like that, it’s your body crying for you to take a break.

If you like an occasional cup of coffee or energy drink to get through something, then that’s fine. But if you ever feel like one isn’t working like it used to, you should take a break from caffeine to reset your tolerance, not up the dosage like an addict.

    Think of how much money you’ve spent on coffee over the last 5 years. Addictions are expensive. One week of discomfort could save you so much money in the long run.

      Really depends on how you drink it. I buy bulk beans and grind them myself, which runs me like $7-$10 a month, maybe?

      Hey, I didn’t ask you for advice.

      You’re right about the money, but I didn’t ask for advice.

      Think of how much money you’ve spent on over the last 5 in years.

      People are allowed to spend their money on whatever they want. Coffee isn’t this big evil that’s killing people.
