A year ago, a NY Times money columnist, Damon Darlin, wrote out saving advice for graduates. It was practical advice like make sure to save, learn to cook and don't spend $3-10/day on lattes.
Apparently, those graduates revolted. They wrote in and whined about how hard it was to live on $40K a year in a big city. Wah, fucking wah.
Damon Darlin has now written a follow-up column -- again dispensing very practical advice about how to save money. He reiterates the stupidity of spending so much money on coffee.
The column was forwarded to me by no less than three different people (so far). And in the notes above the hot link, they, too, decried his sentiments about the Starbucks.
I don't get it. What gives, people? Since when did spending $4 on a cup of coffee become such a character defining habit?
