I came across this interesting article about how much your coffee habits can cost you over your lifetime.

I wonder how much money CPA exam candidates are spending on their daily coffee intake.

I am glad to say I spend zero on coffee 🙂 I get way to hyper when I drink coffee so its very rare that I will. I am a huge tea drink and I normally just buy a large box of tea bags and it lasts me a month or more. Drink my tea black with no milk or sugar.

I do buy the Chai Tea on Tuesdays at Peets Coffee house. Once a week to indulge on $ 3.95 isn't a bad thing I guess.

One double espresso a day non-busy season.

Two double espressos a day busy season. My main client has a $15K commercial espresso machine, so its a chore to not over-indulge haha.

When not on that client I make it myself on my super automatic espresso machine, cost per shot, about twelve cents 🙂

I would buy about 3 XL cups of coffee during busy season/studying.. seemed to work okay for me, and I had no problem sleeping after 12 hours working plus a few hours studying 🙂

Once every two or three weeks – Starbucks tall, iced caramel macchiato, extra caramel, whole milk, whipped cream. Coffee dehydrates me, I can't drink it that much.
