Skip Your Usual Starbucks Trip

跳过你的星巴克之旅


Many of us get into the routine of stopping at acoffee shop every day, maybe the route to work.

我们许多人习惯了每天在咖啡店里停留一会儿,也许是在上班路上。

Perhaps you started doing this as an occasional treat or a convenience when you'd not had time for breakfast –but it's become a habit。

也许你最初只是因为偶尔请人喝杯咖啡,或者没空吃早饭图个方便,但这已经成为了一种习惯。

A few dollars a day might not seem like much –but it adds up over the course of a year.

一天几美元似乎并不是很多,但一年下来也不是个小数目。

Why not skip that Starbucks stop and set up an automated transfer to put $5/day into your savings account instead?

为什么不放弃星巴克,改为每天往自己的账户里自动转入5美元呢?

After just a month, you'll be over $100 better off –that's more than $1,200 a year。

只需1个月,你就多了100美元,一年至少有1200美元。
