Hi, this is a nice article. I personally like the Latte Factor idea and it has inspired me to start my new blog with a similar name.

[...] Now I’m not saying bust out the credit cards and charge your way to bliss. Just stop letting the little, mundane and pointless crap get you down. If the value you find in a cup of coffee in the morning or a scented candle around Christmas time are worth what you are paying for them, then that dollar was well spent. Others may call this the crap that you are passionate about. [...]

latte factor is for amateurs! i cut our budget by almost half (cancelled satellite tv, micro budgeted grocery trips, cancelled landline, etc), and now we have saved almost $12K in a 12 months so we can travel the west coast for a year starting 2010. of course, there is a little voice that i have almost snuffed out that says “you should save that money for the future!” but we could be dead in a year. we are doing it NOW!

Yes! I hate the latte factor. Who cares if you can squirrel away a couple of hundred a year or $1mil in a lifetime. Anyone who is worrying about how much a cup of coffee costs has some weighty debt issues and needs solutions that make a bigger dent. Life is to be enjoyed. Debt is to be overcome. .-= Celeste @ Coors Credit Union Blog´s last blog ..Estimating Your Needs for the Future: 12 Times =-.
