Why is Suzy Orman Trying to Put Starbucks Out of Business?
While coffee giant, Starbucks, struggles to keep it’s stores open, providing decent jobs and benefits for even part time employees, author Suzy Orman is telling people the way to wealth is to “make your own coffee at home and save the money.”
Sure, saving money is always a good idea and it’s prudent for people to look for ways to cut back on expenses, however, Orman is taking it to the extreme. Cut your own hair, make your own coffee and brown bag your lunch? What’s next, eating dog food?
Much of Orman’s advice is sound and no doubt she’s well intentioned but there are other ways to change one’s financial situation.
In my newest book, Stop Living Paycheck to Paycheck, I suggested a change in your attitude and beliefs about how much money you deserve and desire as the place to begin. I then suggest several part time ventures almost anyone, with a little ambition and drive can implement, without giving up their job or risking their savings, to supplement their income.
I am one of the authors who teach making more money as the solution to financial shortage. My philosophy is shared by many of my colleagues. People like Jack Canfield, Joe Vitale, Mark Victor Hansen, T. Harv Ecker, Bob Proctor, Loral Langemeier, and others have all written about using attraction principles as the way out of struggle.
In the end, it’s a personal choice. You can decide to make more money or drink cheap coffee. For me, and those in my camp, foregoing Starbucks is not an option.
