Starbucks Coffee Shop On Every Corner
What do you think about a Starbucks Coffee Shop On Every Corner? Was browsing updates on LinkedIn this week and a story caught my eye. Starbucks announced plans on opening 2 new stores each day in North America between 2013 and 2017. According to Wiki Answers, there are over 16,600 stores worldwide as of December 2012. Here are some more facts from Wiki Answers about how many coffee shops Starbucks has right now:
Japan over 800
Canada over 1,000
USA over 11,100
My first thoughts were that new Starbucks coffee shops would mean more jobs for people that want to have a J O B. Around 90 percent of people fall into this category. For some reason, about 10 percent of people have what is known as an internal passion for having their own small business.
Entrepreneurs start small businesses every day. Starbucks was a small business at one point. The entrepreneur envisioned a Starbucks Coffee Shop On Every Corner when he started his business.
I am an entrepreneur also. I show people how to market a product or service. My passion is helping people get healthier, which leads to my second thought about all of the new coffee shops coming to North America.
CAFFEINE IS A DRUG! Drinking coffee and soda that is loaded with caffeine is socially accepted. Caffeine is the most abused drug on the planet. Earlier in 2012 a fourteen year old girl died from drinking just 2 Monster energy drinks.
Just do a search for deaths by energy drinks and you will see many articles. Caffeine is a stimulant that impacts the bodies central nervous system. When we were born, we did not have a bunch of caffeine in our blood stream and it is best for your health to eliminate caffeine from your body.

I decided in 2001 that I no longer needed to drink coffee and moved to drinking one decaf green tea each morning. The green tea has health benefits so I moved to a healthier alternative. When you decide that you have had enough caffeine, it is best to wean yourself off the caffeine to avoid some serious withdrawal symptoms.
If you make a pot of coffee at home, instead of putting in a full scoop from the coffee can, only add 7/8 of a scoop. Stay at that level for a couple of days. Move down to 3/4 of a scoop and stay at that level for a couple of days and so on until you are finally at 1/8 of a scoop. Drink plenty of pure water each day and you will be flushing out the acid and caffeine from your body!
Caldera Greens is much more affordable than Starbucks coffee. If you purchased just one canister of the Organic Caldera Greens at $1.70 a day, you are still spending less than the cost of most coffee beverages at any shop. I know people that think nothing of spending $10 a day on 2 or more espresso drinks. Find out more about Caldera Greens and the impact the dense nutrition can have on your health on my page below:

It will create more jobs which is a good thing but is a shame to put out all that caffeine and sugar. We’ll never be able to eliminate all the things that are toxic to our bodies but people would see and feel a change if they could use these items in moderation and cut back. It could really make a difference.
This is made by forcing hot water at high pressure through the beans. It contains only relatively small concentrations of cafestol and kahweol (the substances that can raise levels of blood cholesterol) and is unlikely to have a significant effect on the heart. The amount of caffeine in a single shot of espresso is less than a cup of standard filter coffee, but if you are regularly drinking double or triple espressos, it is easy to overdo it.
This is a tricky one Daniel. Is the odd cup of coffee going to do any harm to an adult? I think not. Most people cannot afford to drink enough coffee at coffee shops to do any harm.
Hello Neil,
Here in North America many people live such hectic lives that they only know fast food and rushing into a coffee shop to get their ‘pick me up’. I am blessed to work from my home office so I take time to make real healthy meals and do not put any caffeine or harmful substances into my body. I also can do my exercises and in the long run having a home based business is not only good for your financial well being but also your physical and emotional health. I live the opposite of the fast food mindset. Looking forward to being alive well into my 90’s and practicing what I share on my website!
It’s a catch 22 isn’t it Daniel? On the one hand, they are selling harmful substances and on the other hand. they are offering jobs to people. I get frustrated with people who have a job mentality. Even people with jobs should get a part time income stream and pay off their mortgages, car loans and other debt.
